My Hot Stamping Journey (3 Viewers)

[AK Chip]

@AK Chip, have you tried stamping FDL chips? I know CPC won’t stamp them, but I know I’ve seen some hotstamped FDL’s—Le Boudoir, I believe.

I haven't had a chance to stamp any of those yet.

It can be done, and it looks amazing!

There must be some reason why CPC won’t do it.

The pressure of their commercial stamper is too great I believe. I think it may crack the chips?

I'm certainly not 100% on my answer. I think AK is able to do more as he can do a lower pressure?

Is this correct AK? Maybe I should just leave it to someone else to answer.

I honestly dont know, I would guess it has to do with the recces of the chips. If there is any flashing it will cause spinners, I can counter that by scaping the chips after stamping which wouldn't be cost prohibitive for CPC. Again this is a total guess.

I like the look of this.

 

[TroyMan]

Hot stamps are so..... I don't know....HOT!

 

[LeGold]

Don't quite like the mold here, but the stamps are gorgeous!

 

[Thomacetti]

agree...H-mold should rock this stamp

 

[AK Chip]

What do you think about the black foil?

 

[LeGold]

Oh, didn't even notice it was black, thought it was just lightning on gold It does look good, but it's hard to tell from photos.

 

[AK Chip]

Finally got the size right for the Roman mold.

 

[AK Chip]

Can’t really see it in the pics but my pup rolled around in the chipper glitter, moms not to happy!

 

[AK Chip]

Stamped a few of my own today!

Love following this thread. Seems like you’re developing a skill (service) that may be unique and in demand on PCF??!!!

Nice work!

What are you mixing in your coke to keep you going? Snapper dust?

 

[LeGold]

Now that's a not-mine custom set I could see myself owning.

Pink $25.. love it!

 

[AK Chip]

here is the line up.

 

[RainmanTrail]

I had the stamp made, I will be adding more denoms and just ordered more HHR chips for a full set.

How much does it cost to get a copper stamp made by them?

 

[AK Chip]

How much does it cost to get a copper stamp made by them?

If ordered with others around $15-$20 each

 

[RainmanTrail]

Have you tried stamping the H-mold yet? Does it come out as good as the CSQ and DSQ if so?
