zimmerstutzen Posted May 5, 2016 Report Share Posted May 5, 2016 When I was in college, I turned several bowls out of teak cut offs from a furniture factory. Each was basically the same and was finished with particular felt pads on the bottom that I made myself. I sold them to help pay for tuition. imagine how I felt when I discovered two of my bowls, a few years later, being sold in a craft store with another person's name tagged as maker. After that when I made something, I took two letter stamps from a metal stamp set, clamped them together and heated them with a torch and burned my initials into the work. I sold some leather work for a while and did the same then. Branded with my initials. Even when making anything as a gift, I add my "mark" It identifies the item. If I were to do anything commercially again, it will be marked with a brand that is comprised of my initials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky2 Posted May 6, 2016 Report Share Posted May 6, 2016 These small branding irons look interesting, I own a full size one that has my name on it. The problem with it, is that it's to large for most items I make. I will be giving purchasing one of the small ones, some serious consideration. Any item I make would look a lot neater branded, then it would if I just signed my name. Len Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NC Scroller Posted May 6, 2016 Report Share Posted May 6, 2016 I agree with Ike. A business card attached to the back is my brand. I so initial and date each piece except small ornaments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
