Anneal your metal by heating to a dull red and allow to cool (unless your metal has already been annealed, as is the case with our range of pre-cut stamping blanks). Support the metal fully from the reverse, using a steel block or sandbag. Measure and mark the position where you would like the impression to sit (ImpressArt Stamp Straight Tape is useful for this step. Hold your chosen stamp in place (with your left hand if you are right handed, or your right hand if you are left handed) ensuring that it stands fully upright, with the whole design in complete contact with the surface of the metal. Take your hammer and get your position by resting it on the top of the stamp, ready to strike. When ready, raise the hammer and strike the end of your stamp cleanly and with strength. If you feel you need a second blow, ensure you DO NOT MOVE the stamp or this will ruin your design. The force of the blow will determine the depth of the impression. Designs can be enhanced by rubbing over with a black marker pen or stamping enamel ink, and then buffing off the excess from the remaining raised areas.

What is your minimum order quantity (MOQ)? There is no constant number, but keep your profit margins in mind. Whether you want to sell all the units, you still have to pay for your order. It is common to see price exceeding the higher volumes, so it is essential to make inquiries in regards to the volume to reduce cost.
