Members dfrensdorff Posted September 1, 2019 Members Report Posted September 1, 2019 I have one more to sell from a group of 4...... Up for grabs here is a Howard J-100-A Hot Imprinting Machine. New cord and a soft cleaning. Heats up just fine, and makes a great impression into leather .... they are used for foil as well, and I was able to get a decent gold foil impression. (This takes some practice because of the amount of heat needed for different leathers and foils). Also included is a single line type holder, a holder that you attach your logo stamp or makers stamp to (can be done with a heat sensitive two-sided tape), a set of Kingsley 14 pt. type (5/16”) so you can play around with initials etc., and a small amount of foil. This machine also has the foil advancing set-up integrated into the machine. I’m asking $300, plus shipping in the USA. If interested, please ask questions, as this is sold as is.

Members Stewbeans22 Posted September 7, 2019 Members Report Posted September 7, 2019 Will you sell the stamps and type holder by their selves?
Members dfrensdorff Posted September 8, 2019 Author Members Report Posted September 8, 2019 No ... not these as they’re needed to make this a complete set-up. Let me look tomorrow in all the extra stuff I have and see if there is something.

Members dfrensdorff Posted September 16, 2019 Author Members Report Posted September 16, 2019 Edit ...:the Kingsley type included in this sale is 5/32” .... here is an example:
mikesc Posted September 17, 2019 Report Posted September 17, 2019 (edited) I think that would be 10 pt type.. Nope.. corrected if 5/32 it would be just over 11 pt type.. A micrometer would give an accurate reading to convert correctly..with a ruler, it could be 10 pt or 11 pt or even 12 pt. 72 pts ( pt is the type measuring system ) per inch.* https://everythingfonts.com/font/tools/units/pt-to-in * Type sizes measure from the top of the ascender ( like the bar on a letter d ) , to the bottom of the descender, ( like the lowest part of the "tail" on a y ) and your type is apparently all caps ? So any pt size is harder to attribute.Some type styles have some letters which are taller than others, often the letter O and sometimes G and U...occasionally V, W and sometimes the lower point of M and N..There can be others, typography is complex. HTH :) Edited September 17, 2019 by mikesc Correction and changed link
