OldCanuck Report post Posted December 25, 2021 (edited) Y'all. I must have raised my kids right. Please forgive me while I brag on 'em. I'm just a hobbyist. I'm not planning on ever getting paid for my projects. I admire those of you who do. Every since I subscribed to this site, I have admired your brands, tags, hot stamps, or whatever they're called. That's a mark of professionalism I will never attain. I have always simply carved my initials into a tiny spot on my work, and been content with that. See my first picture. Well, my kids conspired this year to design and procure a custom hot stamp for me. See my second picture. The Coloradans on this group will recognize Longs Peak and Mt. Meeker. The Etsy artist told them that his minimum die size is 30 cm. They talked him into making a 20 cm die, smaller than a US 25-cent piece. It's perfect. Merry Christmas, one and all. Here's hoping for a better 2022 -- for all of us. Edited December 25, 2021 by OldCanuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
