wood branding iron source needed

[83Eagle]

We are looking for a branding iron to make souvenir wood disks at camp. Lots of sources online but I am looking for other and cheaper options...any ideas are appreciated.

Find a local Farrier/blacksmith they can probably help you out, cheaper than online.

 

If you send me your design I maybe able to help you out, with most of the cost being only materials and shipping.(This message has been edited by Gary_Miller)

Does it have to be a branding iron or can it be a wood-burning tool? How big is the brand?

 

Edit: Gary, I might be interested. What can you do? PM me if you want.(This message has been edited by packsaddle)

Basically an iron we can heat in the fire with the name of the pack, year, and camp. Size...???

I'm a farrier so I have the tools, IE. Forge, to shape most anything you want and if I can't do it I know someone else who can.

 

PM me you design and I'll see what I can do.(This message has been edited by Gary_Miller)

I teach blacksmithing and welding to 4H and my troop for farm mechanics merit badge. We would LOVE to build your branding irons, but will not get busy again until after holidays. A local blacksmith would be more suitable, ck out www.abana.org. Besides, if I can do it .............
