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.
