How to Get Started With Home Stamping
In the previous installment of my series on W L S Stamping, I discussed some of the challenges involved with building a stamping shop and the tools necessary for this type of operation. The challenge that remained was how to get these tools to the job site without having a negative impact on the surrounding property. I decided to take on this problem in more detail in this installment. In this post, I will share some W L S Stamping ideas that have been working well for me. I hope you find them useful and are able to implement them easily.
It used to be that I could only work on small PVC pipe fittings projects such as lettering and letterhead. However, I recently discovered that my favorite tool for stamping is the ever-popular WL S Stamping Hammer. This tool comes in a compact travel-case, and it has the power to quickly and easily stamp almost all sizes and types of metals. Because of its compact design, this tool can easily be taken along on my travels. I often carry this hammer along with me while working in a warehouse near the coast or in an agricultural area.
Some of the larger tools used for stamping include the likes of a large stamping plate and a band saw. Both of these tools are ideal for any variety of large projects. When it comes to outdoor application, however, I tend to use a stapler in addition to my trusty WL S stamping hammer. This way, I can cover larger areas such as trees, fences, parking lots, and other large outdoor areas. When used in conjunction with a stapler and a paper blade, my portable stapler becomes even more versatile.
The combination of my portable stapler/paver blade and my trusty W L S stamping tool has made designing and decorating my house a breeze. Rather than having to worry about hammering into the wood of the walls or ripping up wallpaper, I can simply stamp a design to the wall using my portable stapler. And because I always have this handy tool with me, I don’t ever have to worry about the possibility of losing or damaging my equipment. The only thing that I wish I could do is add a few more designs here and there to compliment the wall art I’ve already completed. I would also like to be able to design and paint my own area rugs from home.
As you may know, home area rugs are some of the nicest things you can add to your home. When done properly, they can improve the ambiance of any room. And when used with my portable W L S stamping tool, I am ensured of producing high quality artwork that will truly enhance the beauty of my home. If I were to take my time, I might even consider selling my artwork.
There are many people who would consider buying a home stapler in order to be able to get professional-looking home area rugs. They are not however, the right tool for the task. Home staplers are too big and heavy to use on the walls. They would also be too hard to move around. Rather than spending money on another tool, I decided to create my own home-made stapler.
To make my home-made W L S stamping machine, I first purchased an inexpensive but functional s stamping machine. I then cut holes in my refrigerator’s door frame, attached a magnet to the underside of the refrigerator’s door knob, and stuck to the magnet in the center of the hole. After setting up my magnet, I stuck some paper tape over the magnet so that the magnet wouldn’t slide. Finally, I used the included instructions to line the holes up properly and began to stamp with my own hand-stamped W L S stamping machine.
After finishing up the job with my homemade W L S stamping machine, my wife was impressed. The finished product was beautiful-she even asked me if she could have a try making her own home-made stapling machine. Fortunately, I had all the supplies. I simply told her to follow the instructions provided in the program to make her own home-made stapling machine. She was more than happy to oblige me by making her own machine!
