Nothing new here. Just made a typical hand stamp guide using some aluminum and two magnets.
Helps to keep all the characters lined up. This one is for flat stock.
Cheers, JR

Thanks Tony, You will enjoy stamping stability with that tool.

I am not kidding: I was literally YESTERDAY wanting something like this to stamp steel types into the custom chef's knives I make, and couldn't even figure out the right search terms for it so I gave up. Opened my e-mail and saw this and my jaw (figuratively this time :-) dropped to the floor. The gods must be smiling on me - thanks so much! AndrewQuote:

Why didn't I think of this !
A simple idea but a very handy one indeed.
When I saw this I HAD to make a copy, which I did today in my workshop for use with my set of 5/16" square shank letter & number types.
Thanks, jjr2001 for this useful post.
