Gus could never free hand stamp letters and numbers using the steel stamps on his project pieces properly/orderly during Trade School days. Some how my classmates did a better job than me.
The Power Feed need to to be labelled for Forward--------Reverse and Slow------Fast on the selector switch and speed pot..
A stamping jig was DIY. I am not sure if there is one in the market. I was taught a humble lesson,the aluminium blanks must be well done to enhance the
appearance of the labellings. No dancing letters and no wagging letters. Hammering force on the steel stamp must gaged to get good indent.Light blows means shallow indent.Too hard blows means too deep or blank damaged.:rant::wall::hDe:
After umpteenth attempts I made it but attaching to control box was another misadventure and took a few attempts.
Please do feel free to relate your competency in free hand letter stamping experience and results.
