How Do You Keep Even Lettering On A Name Belt?

Recommended Posts

I am in the process of making a "name type belt" and wanted to know if there is a trick to keeping the lettering even.

The problems I can see is that I will be using the same stamp in a row so I can't line up the next stamp on the one before and keeping the stamps in the middle of the belt and not going off to one side.

Also should you stamp the name then a border around it or border first?

One project may not have a border I am not sure yet.

Thanks for your help

Phil

I usually carve my letters, but, I've seen many posts on here about this very question, with clever ideas. Here are a couple that might help.

Good ideas I though about clamping a straight edge as a guide but I wasn't sure if it would leave a mark.

Also how do you go about carving letters?
