Members Quillleather Posted June 11, 2015 Members Report Posted June 11, 2015 I want to do something like what savoy leather does with the lettering. Finding there are not many options when buying letter stamps. Did they make a custom stamp plate to do these or ? Thanks. Quote
Members Halitech Posted June 11, 2015 Members Report Posted June 11, 2015 I would hazard a guess that those are plates instead of letter stamps. Quote
Members humperdingle Posted June 11, 2015 Members Report Posted June 11, 2015 Yes, you can see two or three of the plate's corner imprints on the first pic, where it has been pressed a bit too vigorously. Quote
Thor Posted June 11, 2015 Report Posted June 11, 2015 I doubt those imprints are of a plate. I they would be, they would be below the writing and not somewhere in between. That's probably just a mistake when setting the snaps. There are two ways of doing this, or how I would do it. First one is pretty pricey as you would need a lettering press and the desired letters. You can find them on ebay in this category http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/Letterpresses-/108885/i.html. Second option would be to contact studio-n on here and have him make a poly stamp with his laser if he's able to. Quote

Bottom left of the group of lettering and top right look pretty clearly to be plate marks to me. Quote
Members texback Posted June 12, 2015 Members Report Posted June 12, 2015 Looks like a plate to me. Quote

LOL, okay you're right I was referring to them lines below the snaps. Anyhow I didn't say they didn't use a plate, I just doubted the marks are of a plate. With the whole thing being dinged a bit I'm still not sure, but both of the methods I referred to would use plates as well so you're probably right. Quote
Members Quillleather Posted June 12, 2015 Author Members Report Posted June 12, 2015 Ok great. Thanks for the info. Quote
