My Hot Stamping Journey (5 Viewers)

[johnnycnote]

Just checking in to see whether I didn't authorize dies to be made but they ended up being made anyway... I might be in for a hot stamp set too....

Do it. Need samples

First set almost complete!

Question what companies make Custom dies for use in a Kingsley machine?

 

[Davism72]

This is so cool. Nice job.

This is my design. I don't know how hotstamps were produced without my permission or knowledge. I never went beyond the design stage with the hotstamps and never commissioned dies to be made.

I am seriously more than a little concerned on what exactly has happened here.

I have to check back to find the post....but a veteran chipper & stamper posted the option to order dies via him so time ago
He was a very respected member...so i'm sure he will deliver.

Will look in to it tonight

Curious what metal you chose for the process. Magnesium or copper?

I haven't ordered dies yet. Waiting on some final touches on the art work.

I mostly ordered Copper. Felt the heat distribution/performance was better than the cheaper Aluminum or Magnesium dies.

Your stamping is looking really good. Are you going to be the next @Gear, but for hotstamping??

I would love to know if you are able to get a stamp to take on the CPC scrown. My understanding is the industrial machine the results were subpar. But I’m wondering if a manual machine could get nice results. If so,I would likely hire you for a project.

I tried and the results were really bad.

This has been the million dollar question. Also for the lcrown chips. Collin @monkeydog did not have any luck stamping CPC versions of the TRK molds. I will try and get in on an order of the chips from CPC and give it a go myself but it doesn't look promising.

P.S. If anyone happens to have blanks I can try stamping please let me know.

Should be sleeping but wanted to play a bit more.

Pat, these are looking so sweet.

 

[AK Chip]

This made me laugh

 

[Racer96]

Ok, so if I want to order add ons to the aurora club tourney set, I need to order blanks now and sent to you to get stamped? Or is that not possible any longer?

Nice work btw!

Yes, I had CPC ship the dies to me. If you order some blanks Ill stamp them when I can.

And thanks for the compliment!

What are you using for thermal tape to mount the dies?

Don’t worry, it won’t be for quite some time. I’m still in France and haven’t even seen the chips yet

I'm just using a roll that came with the machine. It says specialty tapes on the inside of the roll?

One of the reasons why I stopped stamping (aside from lack of time) was that I wasn’t sure where to get replacement thermal tape.

I’ll have to start looking into that I guess.

It kinda looks like the initials are PCF.

Exactly what I thought.
