I think I have one thing that is stamped and every time I get an order for it I get filled with fear. I don't do much stamping and its intimidating combined with I am not very good at it. I had an order over Christmas, its a 5X1.5MM ring and it needed about 16 characters on it. Those are the orders you send off with a prayer :)
Do you use the 1 hit technique or the many lighter hits while lightly moving the stamp to make sure its crisp on all sides?
I have been polishing my metal before I stamp so I can see the reflection of the stamp to line it up. Its all a learning process for me really. Tommy
