Numbering stamp handle/holder

Post by kasperbunk »

Hallo guys. Any advice on making a handle or something to hold the numbering stamps. Mine are squere and a pain to control in my bare hands. How do you guys do?

I use my bare hands... but if it were bothering me, I’d just drill a hole in a scrap of wood and make a handle out of that.

Old billiard ball + drill bit + epoxy = comfort (also greater "delivery pressure" potential)

No square hole needed.

And if you don't want to glue the stamps into the ball---epoxy will fill the gaps just fine, btw---then use something like this to hold them in while still being switchable:

Golf balls make great tool handles, I use them for all sorts, especially lathe files, super safe for that.
