    Default Doing a makers mark - chemical burning

    I have seen the issue of how to do makers marks or repeating patterns discussed here several times, but I don't think I've seen this idea. Apologies if its common knowledge.

    I do wonder just how bad for your health it is to work with ammonium chloride. Any thoughts ?

    cheers

    My "Mark" cost me about a dollar. I use it on all my wood carvings.
    20 or 25cm nail ($0.50), Dremel and a couple of HD cut-off disks (#420).
    Flatted the nail head. Drew my mark (RV) backwards on the surface with fine felt marker.
    800 grit W&D sandpaper makes a great eraser for lousy printing!
    Carved the steel. Added a nice wooden handle.
    Propane bottle torch, test on a scrap of that particular wood (they all cook diffrerently.)

    The diamond willow furniture shop down my street uses 3 of the LV custom marks.
    I must admit, they really are nice but they admit it's hard to get the heat just right.
