So, I asked where to get a stamp, and the answer was definately "Paul with A&M Steel. He is in fact, a very good man. I am anxiously awaiting my stamp to arrive. now... one more stupid question. HOW DO YOU STAMP YOUR PIPES? 8O I realise that we are dealing with an extremely hard wood here, and I am curious as to a good method, so that I may not screw up too many finished stummels.
I thank you for your help (once again)

I just want to be the best that I can be.
Hi Aaron,
Paul's stamps are very sharp. Just use a good amount of pressure by hand while rocking it very slightly in all directions to make sure everything makes an impression. That should give you a nice clear stamp. You might want to practice a few times on some scrap pieces first.
Hope this helps,
