Makers mark stamp

[ByNelson]

I’m looking for a makers stamp, but where to get it in Europe? I would like a stamp in metal not plastic... do you guys know?

The company I used in the past has, sadly, closed.  They did supply fully-mounted stamps.  I did find one other UK supplier but they charged far too much.

I have ended up using http://www.leprevo.co.uk/embossing.htm several times.  The drawback is that you have to cut out and mount the stamps yourself.  The positive aspects are that I have found them to be quick, reliable, easy to deal with and very reasonably priced.

There may be other European users on here who can help.

There's a a place called Hex N Hit there website is-http://hexnhitstamps.com/ they are in Thailand, I bought my custom stamp from them and it is amazing I got the stamp a metal handle that screws in plus the electric heated handle basically its a wood burner that attaches to the stamp to heat it. If you go to youtube and go to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3JDQzETO-g he shows his stamp from them its about halfway through when he shows it.

It because everything outside Europe get an extra tax when you get it by mail to Denmark... trying to avoid that ...

Hey @gary, i see on the leprovo website, they say you can stick a stamp to a block of metal and use it with a hammer. i was just wondering have you ever done this? and would it work for a makers mark do you think?

thanks,
