"How can I avoid getting a double impression?"
"How can I avoid getting a double impression?" is the biggest question we hear about metal stamps. There are a couple of answers. One is that you should try to hit the stamp hard enough the first time so that you don't have to strike it again. The stamp can skid a little on the metal in-between blows. The other is that you should use a brass hammer. The brass absorbs a little bit of the blow, allowing the stamp to sink in.
Hand stamping tips:
- Place your metal blank on a steel bench block.
- Use Stamp Straight tape to align the letters.
- Stamp the center letter first, then work your way outward.
- Strike the stamp once with medium force for sterling, harder for gold-filled.
