LTRA84 Report post Posted November 15, 2016 Hi Guys, Does anyone know where i can purchase an embosser like this? I need to personalise baby leather items with initials. I've looked extensively and not seen anything like this. I have seen the usual China made ones but I would like an alternative as the last time I bought one it was an absolute hassle. Thank you in advance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheModifier Report post Posted November 15, 2016 I'm not sure about the heating element, but we're extremely happy with Nick from Artisans brass stamp he made for us. http://www.artisans.co.uk/ Top notch craftsmanship and recommended to us from Nigel (Dangerous Beans).

rejerome Report post Posted November 15, 2016 A number of online suppliers to the woodworking community in the USA carry what I think you're wanting. I'm not sure what temperature range you need but several of these are adjustable. Perform a Google search for "woodworking branding irons electric".

I was told between 330 TO 600 Watts (leather mostly vegetable tanned not more than 2mm thick) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeatherLegion Report post Posted December 8, 2016 I used a 200 watts heating element in my unit and it worked without any issues. I am using 100 watts now and it does the job. You don't want to burn the leather . It doesn't take a lot of heat to leave a nice impression...at least from my experience Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
