wood burning or stamping with a stamp

Post by dbabicwa »

Hi there,

is anyone burning wood (stamping) with some sort of method and what is it?

I'm after some reliable method to imprint "Made in ..." which does not involve printed graphics etc. Do not have a cnc:)

Was thinking ammonia chloride and a rubber stamp to burn wood but getting not so good results. Used a kitchen torch.

Cheers

D.

I have seen wood working magazines that offer custom electric wood buring stamps....

This is my attempt with ammonia and bamboo veneer:

Cheap as cheaps with a rubber stamp. But, would do it on a peace of veneer and use that instead of burning a core.

Get that design cnc cut on a piece of 10mm steel, weld a handle to the back of it and heat it with a small torch.

I've had some trouble burning post-press, since the veneer is saturated with hardened epoxy.

Yes. Doing it before epoxy.

You don't even have a legit signature, nothing to reveal who you are and what you do...

Best of luck to you. (uneva)

I remember reading in one of the journals not so long ago.
I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.
