Basically Bob Report post Posted September 7, 2013 My niece provided me with the art-work and my good friends at Tundra Leather ordered the plate. A retired machinist made the "punch" for me and I epoxied the plate to the punch. Works good and adds a bit of professionalism to my projects. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Basically Bob Report post Posted September 7, 2013 Here is a photo of the stamp. The block portion is a small chunk of scrap aluminum. The block was tapped to accept a stainless steel bolt I had on hand. A "lock nut" was screwed on to the bolt. I really don't have the ability to do this sort of thing on my own and am very fortunate to have a retired machinist that is willing to help me out. I also made a really simple leather case to cover it with so that I don't damage it when not in use. Bob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lwleathers Report post Posted September 13, 2013 A leather case for the stamp is a great idea! Aluminium or Brass stamps are relatively soft metals, they could be damaged if it's got knocked down from the table. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
