Great branding iron!
The branding iron works great! It is a good idea to do test brands in some scrap wood to get the feel for how to get the best results, i.e. how long to hold it in place, how hard to press down, and maybe rock the head gently back and forth to ensure full coverage of the brand. But hey, it's not rocket science, if you can build a cabinet then you can figure it out! The few bad reviews I read for this product were complaints about the ordering process and/or delays. I wanted to make a change to my order and both Rockler, and the company that makes the head, responded quickly and made every effort to accommodate my request. My iron arrived in about 1 week and I am very happy with the end product.

Great Branding Iron
Great product and was also very easy to order and use! It took a little practice on how hard to press and how long to keep it on the wood!! Worked out great once you get the hang of it!

A Great Way To Sign All Of Your Projects
I have been wanting a branding iron for a long time. When this went on sale I took the plunge, and I am so glad that I did. It takes a little practice to get it just right, but when you do the results are amazing! I want to brand everything that I make so my descendants down the line will know exactly who made it after I'm long gone.

Useful Tool
Overall a very good product at a competitive price. They offer a large selection of wording options. Note: it does require a very flat surface. I typically have a slight concavity on the bottom of my bowls (to prevent wobble), but the surface must be quite flat for even letter burning.
I wish the handle was a little shorter, would make precise burning a little easier.

How do I customize lettering for the branding iron??? Where do you do that???
BEST ANSWER: Hi, Charles
I got my branding iron as a birthday gift from my wife. I'm very pleased.
As you probably know, you get the lettered brass fitting by sending your request voucher to the manufacturer. You'll receive the branding iron itself in the mail and included is a voucher you can mail in with exactly what you want your "brand" to look like. You have a great deal of choices illustrated for you or you can request whatever design you want (with size and length limitations).
I wish I requested a date indicator on mine. I'm happy with the brand itself. It's exactly what I ordered. But now I'd like to be able to put a date on it somehow. I'm thinking of buying a wood burning set and hand numbering my brand.
Hope this is helpful.

can I use also in leather products?
BEST ANSWER: Hi Ed,
I haven’t used this on leather yet. But I would think this would have no problem performing leather branding.
So just like I have to test burn different woods due to their hardness. You would have to test burn the leather. It’s more due to timing of head contact to the item you want to burn because there is no heat settings. It’s just on or off.
Hope this helps !

Is it possible to get a completely customized head; i.e. my own woodworking business logo, instead of one of the 15 standard designs?
BEST ANSWER: At the time I ordered mine I do not believe so. Also, I do not care for the head mechanism. It does not stay put and always wants to twist no matter how tight. The bushing just keeps spinning so you have to be careful when pressing into the wood.

Can I buy just a replacement head for my torch heated iron?
BEST ANSWER: They told me that if I wanted another one with different information I could order it, of course I would have to pay for any additional plates/heads. I am assuming you are using the branding iron that is carried by Rocker. I suggest that you contact the office and tell them your model of iron etc. Always good to hear from the horses mouth. Get the phone number from Rocker for there are two branding iron companies on the internet, for I got the wrong number at first.

Hello there,
I would really really like to buy one of your wood burning stamps with a logo of a shop I would like to open. Do you offer simple designs? I know I would like a small circle maybe 6cm or bigger that says “urban drift” for a very organic store that sells all kinds of lamps, shelves, chandeliers, framed art work, jewelry, etc. all made from found wood. Nothing was harmed. Can you give me ideas?
Thank you for your time.
Jessica Seagraves.

Do I have to buy any additional things to have a custom brand that is not one of your choices with this set?
BEST ANSWER: Hi Kathy it's been awhile since I purchased mine but at that time you were limited to about 10-12 stock layouts that they "dropped" your name into. If you had a custom logo there was a custom option that you could pay additional for however if I remember correctly the cost for a custom head was almost twice the price of the entire unit from Rockler.... check with your local rockler store I believe there is a website specifically for this branding iron that lays out the options!

Do any of the designs allow for 22 letters per line?
BEST ANSWER: Hi, Eric,
My understanding (from the catalog) is : a maximum of 20 letters per line on both large and standard size designs; unless the width of the characters is (all) narrow. In the illustrations in the catalogue, I see that "Rockler Woodworking" takes up 19 spaces with " a little room to spare". I don't know if the foundry folks need that little extra space in their casting process. Might be worth a querry.
Good luck.

Can I use it on brass shell cases that I make pens out of?
BEST ANSWER: It might not work on brass or any hard metal for that matter. You'd need a metal stamping equipment for that. This work very well on wood or on any surface that carbonize easily so as to leave the burnt image on the surface.
For your application, try an engraver or etching tool.

How do I order what I want to say in the branding iron?
BEST ANSWER: With the iron “handle”, you will receive an order form to complete and mail in. You specify the text, shape, and optional graphic at that time. The branding “head” will be made using the card you submit. It takes 4-6 weeks to get your actual brand after you mail the card. SLOW process, but let’s someone buy the gift and then the recipient decides on actua brand.

What is the second picture used for where it just has the brass stub, can you brand with it also?
BEST ANSWER: Not quite sure what you mean by “the second picture”?
I assume that any metal that is inserted into the main body of the iron will get hot enough to burn into the wood project.
