Stamp with Name on it - Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts Message Board

bluelucky · 08-31-2009, 02:17 AM

I was wandering where I could get a stamp made with my name and stuff on it? It is time for me to start marking my projects. I hope it's not too expensive but let me know anyway.
Thanks and God Bless,
Michael......Indy.........

You can have them made at almost any office supply store and there are numerous places online to order them.

I saw one just today in the Woodcraft catalog......
Personalized Branding Iron for 2 or 3 lines up to 20 characters
2 line is $99.99
3 line is $119.99
Another model has "Handcrafted by" on the first line and you add your name on the 2nd line for $89.00 electric model and $69.99 non electric mode.
I'm sure there are many other places to get one, but these are the ones I saw. Hope it helps.

I got mine at Office Depot about two years ago and I've used it a lot. It is going to need some ink soon but so far I haven't had to put any ink in it. I think I paid about twelve bucks for it. David

I saw some "Hand made by" branding irons at rockler a while back. They were about $80.

Hi-------I used a personal branding iron for years then it gave up the guost so I just changed my method of identifying myself by simply using a permanent thin writing felt pen and I think the customers seem to like that even better as a more personal way to say just who made it--------and since then have always only used the felt pen-------------just my suggestion -------also saves a fair amount money------------happy scrolling--------Tom

I was in JoAnn the other day in the stamps and scrapbooking aisle and found a pre-made stamp that said "Handmade by" with plent of room to sign and date with a fine Sharpie inside. It is a fairly ornate stamp, about the size of a credit card.

I just got one of their moderately expensive "dry" stamp pads and then always put a coat of clear lacquer over the stamp to prevent rubbing off. (Also protects the Sharpie)

I use a Dremel engraver to put my name and year and glue on a certificate of authenticity if there is room.
