Sorry folks. Been a little MIA working on other things/projects. Hopefully I'll have a chance in the upcoming months to share progress. Stay tuned as they say.

Currently I’ve been trying to nail down reproducing the gas hose markings. I’d previously posted my first attempt. To say I was not satisfied would be an understatement. So tonight I feel like I’m pretty dang close..


Photos 1023 - 1025 - Bottom hose is the latest and greatest attempt. Using archival ink pigment and making my own stamps I thing I can finally say I am satisfied. Top hose was the previously attempt. If there ends up being any interest I might consider marketing these since there are none on the market currently. At least to my knowledge.

Hoses look fantastic! What type of ink did you use? Alcohol based? I e got a project that needs a solid ink, but not white.

The gas hose stamps look great. I had an original but can't locate. I removed it 25 + years ago. If I come across it I will post for comparison.
