Is there a method to "gold stamp" on leather?

Is there someone who sells an attachment (similar to what Signature has)that goes on my rotary engraver that does gold stamping?

Mr. C,

I haven't seen the Signature attachment, to know how it works.

Traditionally, gold foil is placed under a heated die, which is applied to the leather with pressure, releasing gold foil in the image of the die.

I think there is a heated shank that takes the place of the cutter

Whoa!! You guys are great!!!

This forum is faster than a phone call!!

Do you know if this was a cost/labor/time/quality effective piece?

Like all after market attachments that are rigged to run on someone elses machine, getting the feed rate, heat level and pressure correct would be an ever challenging venture. In otherwords, I don't know........... they did not sell very many I would sepculate, because the letter presses were big when they introduced the attachment.

Mark,

Pretty slick. I'd never seen that before.

We tried to warn you, through the start page. We take our slogan very seriously. :-)

But we did not take the warning that seriously

Mr. C,

We have no control over that. All we can do is put the "truth in advertising" out there. :-)
