These stamps are made from 1/4" round heat-treated tool steel. This stamp measures 3mm in diameter. These stamps are hand ground, each
stamp will be slightly different.
Design
Stamps are a bit tricky. I highly recommend you practice on some
cheaper metal before diving into your Sterling Silver or Gold Filled. Click here to purchase a piece of copper sheet for practicing.
For
best results with Design Stamps, make sure there is NO padding under
your Bench Block, make sure you are working on a stable table, and use
a utility hammer (nail pounding hammer) which weighs at least 16
ounces. Feel free to hit the stamp more than once, but hold that stamp
steady, making sure you don't shift at all between hits. The more
confident you are with the hammer and the strength behind it, the
better your impression will be.
