Perfection.
Received this as a birthday present. The voucher only took a week to process and when my brand came I was immediately impressed with the quality. Solid brass, very detailed, crisp edges not only on the letters but also on the bench plane/handsaw that I chose. Of course I immediately tested it on Fiji mahogany and it works absolutely perfectly.
I found that light pressure with a gentle rocking, 2-3 seconds after allowing the iron to heat up for 15 minutes is the best way for me to go. The letters all came out super clean.
I'm very glad my wife went with this iron as opposed to one of the cheaper alternatives, would definitely purchase again!

Good product
I like the crisp clean lettering. After practicing on some scraps, I found that if I press straight down with even force, I get a better result than trying to rock it back and forth. If it gets too dark, a light sanding will fix it.

Great Product
After working diligently and skillfully, it is so nice to put my brand on my work. People like seeing the maker’s name too. I chose the electric version for convenience. It heats up in twenty minutes. You’ll need to practice quite a bit before you get good at it though.

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.

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.

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.
I hope this makes sense and answers your question.
Mine works fine.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

The unit comes with a certificate to contact the supplier that makes the "head" of the branding iron and you choose from about a dozen different style that you can have personalized with a name on it ( not a logo! Although that is available for an up charge) from time of ordering till receipt it only took about 10 days.

How wide is the branding area?
BEST ANSWER: Jon, The electric branding is available with 15 different standard head patterns to choose from I am assuming they are all about the same size... I selected the basic arch design the brass head is 3/4" X 1 1/2" and the copy end up being 5/8" X 1 3/8. Although I like my electric branding iron it does take a bit of experimentation on different woods to get it right, I let it set approx 10 minutes to heat up and when I apply it to wood I use a rocking motion lean it a bit left and right and forward in back to get an even burn across the print...these work okay for one off craft projects or for 2-3 items at a time...but if you did quanity production you would want to look at a heftier system ( drill press mounted?)
Rockler has illustrated somewhere on their site the 15 standard patterns available... In addition you can order seperate heads, custom logos, signatures etc but at a HEFTY price I am sure you can look that up somewhere to see size availability. One last note . This works well with softwood and normal hardness hardwoods ( walnut maples cherry etc) it does not work with extremely hard woods such as Cocobolo, African Blackwood etc

My name is shorter than the "Rockler Woodworking" example, so the head would not need to be 2" wide. If I want to be able to use the brand in confined space, can I cut off excess brass from the head on right and left of the text?
BEST ANSWER: They center your name, and then the design is set to the outside edges of the brass head. So you could cut it off, but you would lose the design elements.
