    I save a LOT of links; bet not 10% are video.

    Here's a little trick to help hand stamping; stretch a couple lengths [for thickness] of masking tape as if to 'underline' your text. You'll feel the lower edge of letter reach that point. At each mark, put a small dot aligned with middle of stamp body, that aids spacing between successive figures.
    Thank you, both for your kind words and your most excellent tip regarding the letter punches, I will use this technique on my next one
