Embossing Stamps

outrider · February 17, 2010, 02:12:29 PM

Howdy Pards,

I am about to send off some artwork for embossing stamps (to be used with a press or a vice) for military "US" and "CS" stamps. They will be made of Delrin. If anyone else is interested in these types of plates let me know...maybe we can get a quantity discount. I will advise what the cost will be...I was considering two sizes of stamps.

Let me know a price, Outrider. I gotta run it by the boss if I go too extravagant on tools. How big are you thinking?

Outrider, a US stamp like that would interest me, if it's what I think you are talking about; US within a oval of sorts, like you would use on a keeper strap?

JD,

The embossing stamp is the insignia that you see on post-civil war (indian wars and later) military holsters and cartridge boxes. It is the oval and measures approx. 2 7/8" x 1 7/8". I am considering a smaller one as well to be used on magazing pouches, etc.

Since I already have a PHD (Pilled Higher and Deeper) in ignorance, can you tell me what CS stands for?

OUTRIDER

Can we have a look at your art work for the stamps?

Thanks Dave

outrider · February 22, 2010, 05:56:53 PM

This art work was done by Jim Simmons and was on the Leatherworkers Forum. So the credit for the art work is for him

JD Alan · February 22, 2010, 09:42:32 PM

Jim Simmons is a good Pard with some helpful material, at least IMO. I've talked with him several times, though not lately. He has a different take on some things, construction wise, but then why not?

Dave54 · February 22, 2010, 10:17:39 PM

Outrider

Excellent just what I was looking for.
Thanks for your efforts in having the stamps made.
