Pauline we are using blanks intended for stamping, usually made from copper, brass, pewter, or silver plating on one of those. Some of them are available on our site, though we carry limited styles: www.thebeadco.com/CategoryProductList.jsp?cat=Tools:Metal+Stamping+Supplies
Every time I try to stamp. They are never even and stamp moves with my hammer strikes. So image is distorted and it looks like I hit it 10 times. Lol how do I fix that

Hello! What kind of metal do you exactly use? I've made tons of beautifull aluminum discs, but now I really can't stamp them well. My dad can, but when I stamp as hard as I possible can, there only is a little mark...Whilst I thought aluminum is the most soft silver coloured metal (apart from real silver). In the other reactions I saw someone say 'brass", but brass is gold coloured, right?
It look so easy when you do it.. I hit so hard (with a very heavy hammer), my wrist really really hurts. When I compare my hitting with yours mine is so much harder. I really don't get it. Why does it go great when you hit, but not when I do? :-(
Hi, good video. I have a "925" stamp and I want to use it on the back of some pendants I am making. Is there a surface or something that wont mess up the front of the pendant when I stamp the back? Thanks.
I would probably just put it on top of a bead matt or something similar that will keep the front from scratching. Unless there is a cabochon or something you don't want to damage, you should be ok with that.
We have never used leather stamps, so you can certainly try them. If that doesn't work we (and other bead stores) sell various stamping kits with all of the letters in the $20-30 range.

+Nicole if you have a hard thick surface that would probably work. Concrete may be ally scratch up what you are hammering, or actually crack. Probably any hammer that isn't rusted should work fine.
AR receivers are aluminum which is softer than steel (unless you are using welded flat spot receivers). You are fine, but be aware that the walls of the aluminum is thin. Extruded aluminum is strong, but potentially you could crack or shatter it. Stick apiece of steel between the gaps and rest on a solid surface to be 100% sure you don't damage it. Keep in mind the BATFE doesn't actually require serial numbers unless you sell back... then again they don't follow their own rules anyways so...
Er ... why not simply TAPE the letters TOGETHER ?? ... that way your name will be STRAIGHT ... Also, use a heavier, bolster hammer and your stamping will be sharper.
Thanks! This helped a lot in making my medic alert dogtag!
The masking tape tip...Excellent!
This would make a fun hobby. Thanks for sharing!
You're so very welcome!
@Noah Krankowsky it is hard to say without testing it, but some metals are just to hard or too thick to stamp into.
Excellent video. 😊👍

A bit of advice from a Machinist....get a bigger hammer....hit it one time.

Can it be done with an uneven surface (kind of like tiny waves)? :|

@@paulienleppers me too, i was tried to hit the pendant so hard but it doesn't leave a single mark
@@paulienleppers Hi, can you tell me from where did you get your stamps? Thank you in advance
Hii i have rvs hangers but I have to hit it like 5 times before it becomes properly vissible, how to fix??
Still an educational video, thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Sara no you don't have to have a hammering block if you have something heavy/substantial (that won't be damaged) on which to hammer.
That was only 2 tappies on the J, Jess!!!
Lol.. Thanks for the clip all bs aside!!
What about logo stamps, can you create a stamp for my logo to fit on 15mm metal snap button?
How many times do you have to hit it to put an impression in Vanadium Tool Steel, with the smallest letter set?
Thank you!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Hi can u tell me the Engraving depth of stamp punch please ?
Cool!! Thank you.
You're welcome!
I want to buy
Hi! I just can’t manage to get the stamp to appear! What am I doing wrong?
I want to get it.
What size blank are you using when you did the one letter with the 6MM stamp?
I got some for my metal blank business cards
Thank you for watching!
Good video
Thanks!
Perfect for my 80% lower build!
I bet 90% of people here have no idea what you mean. :)
haha....also why I am here
lmao why I'm here also..... they have no clue indeed!!!!!!
And she's cute with no ring 💍 wish she could stamp my lower if you know what I mean!!!
Sadly, I couldnt get this to work on my lowers. Its just too dense. if anyone has any luck make a video!
3 hard taps..???, jeez, that metal she banged on must have been soft aluminium.
Hi! I loved your video. Where can I find the letter stamps? I would like to purchase similar to what you used in your video. Thank you!
I would recommend Rio Grande to purchase from for the letter stamps (we used to carry them but they are crazy heavy and a ton to ship).
Sister, where can I get these stumps? I needed a lot more
Hi is it possible to stamp on stainless tag 2mm thickness ??
Where can I buy all this ?
How can I get a custom stamp and what metals can I stamp? Stainless steel? How thin?
Thanks!
I wonder if this method is viable for stamping the engine number on my bike's new crankcase
i would think so!
Will this mark good on plastics?
Would this work with steel sheet metal (about 1mm and 1.5mm thickness?)
Thanks 🫡
You're welcome!

Is there any machine available .. I mean without this painful hammering ?
No, that would only be at a factory level. The hammer is light and the hammering is just tapping, in the case of stamping metal, just a single tap.
Do I have to have the hammering block in order to do this? Or can I substitute it with something else?
Did you ever figure it out? ;)
yes we can use anything as long as it can take the hit
Do i have to buy special stamps of can i just get a set of leather stamps?
We have never used leather stamps, so you can certainly try them. If that doesn't work we (and other bead stores) sell various stamping kits with all of the letters in the $20-30 range.
How do you sell stamp"s or where?
How we get this stemps to do at home

do I need that metal block thing? and that hammer? can I just do it on concrete with a regular hammer?
+Nicole if you have a hard thick surface that would probably work. Concrete may be ally scratch up what you are hammering, or actually crack. Probably any hammer that isn't rusted should work fine.
What’s the material of the pendant?
metal!
What size are those tags?
Please and thank you
They are about 1 inch!
Where is he avalable sir
You can get it here: www.potomacbeads.com/metal-stamping-supplies
neat
what metal should i use to stamp words into titanium?
Sorry not sure, we have never tried stamping titanium.

Or make dog tags which is also used for that
Did she ever hammered her own finger ????
Can I get the Stamps from my local Post Office? 😃😃😃
Ye kis name se milega
Hello what size is it on your punch stamps
7 years has passed without any answer.
What material are the stamps made of?
Generally brass
Why my stamp aren’t stamping?
Perhaps what you're trying to emboss is too hard?
Where did you get your stamps?
They are carried in Potomac Bead Company retail stores, and sometimes offered online here:
www.potomacbeads.com/Metal-Stamping-Supplies-s/2498.htm
Any one else stamping Fire/Safe markings on home manufactured AR15 receivers? Lol
Steel can be harder to stamp than a lot of the brass supplies that we sell, but we wish you luck with it. Be sure to stamp hard!
AR receivers are aluminum which is softer than steel (unless you are using welded flat spot receivers). You are fine, but be aware that the walls of the aluminum is thin. Extruded aluminum is strong, but potentially you could crack or shatter it. Stick apiece of steel between the gaps and rest on a solid surface to be 100% sure you don't damage it. Keep in mind the BATFE doesn't actually require serial numbers unless you sell back... then again they don't follow their own rules anyways so...
Who needs a saftey..... more like fire and fully auto....
You should hold the hammer at the end of the handle. This is the wrong way to hold it.
can you stamp titanium?
Hello, Alfredo. Yes, you can stamp titanium, however, you need more generous stamping.
Thank you so much I will subscribe to ur channel
Looking forward ^_^
You only picked up one S, there are two in Jess. :-)
I am going to, I am going to, I am going to bed
Humm the ( J ) you tap only 2 time ???
Wow, pretty cute girl!
Haw muth 5mm
Er ... why not simply TAPE the letters TOGETHER ?? ... that way your name will be STRAIGHT ... Also, use a heavier, bolster hammer and your stamping will be sharper.
Because you can't hammer all of the letters at the same time. It will dilute the force and the stamps will bounce around.
