I just got my new branding iron from Brand New Industries! No power tool for me either, this is flame powered, LOL.

I got the electric one. I just can’t see the wisdom of fire and sawdust. -- Failure does not stop me, it makes me try harder..... because I'm crazy. |

Screw wisdom, sometimes life needs to be a little more exciting to keep it lively. Really nice design, now you have to see how many items you can apply it to.

cousins wanted to brand their dad’s wood coffin with his cattle brand. They got it on fire. The wood was okay until the finish flamed up. |

nice iron, but how big is it? |

doordude... It’s actually 1 X 2” small enough not to be intrusive but large enough to easily read. -- Improvise.... Adapt...... Overcome! |

redryder, On the bottom of a box, on the edge of a cutting board, in a little seen section of a cabinet, small places abound. I didn’t want a huge iron like the one on the John Boos cutting boards, I think those are out of place, but that’s just me.

That’s really nice. Did you make that design, or, was that one of their own designs? What’s it cost for something like this? Thnx in advance. -- Roger from KY. Work/Play/Travel Safe. Kentuk55@bellsouth.net |

I like the design and it will make you look more professional and even enhance the project. helluvawreck aka Charles -- If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer.

The design is one of their standard offerings and I was in a hurry at the time, heading out the door to fix a problem with a camper, but it does seem to grow on me. I’ve played with it some today and there is a knack to using it. I may take the the handle off and chuck it up in the drill press to apply even pressure. The cost was $59.99 + shipping and took about 2 weeks. -- Improvise.... Adapt...... Overcome! |

It seems to me like you could take a non-electric brander and make it electric by hooking it up to a cheap soldering iron. Maybe I’m oversimplifying things. -- -=Pride is not a sin=- |

I think the mass would be too much for a 100W soldering iron, but I’m not certain. Maybe Russell will tell us what his electric iron has for an element. -- Improvise.... Adapt...... Overcome! |
