I have a dot stamp (the period in a punctuation set) but the thing is so damned small that it would've taken an eternity to do all that, so I used a punch as I've seen dave billings do similar peening to his line of machine putters the same way.... I've also heard of guys putting the ampersand (or some other letter/symbol they never use) in a cordless drill and grinding to a point with a bench grinder. Similar to the way you'd sharpen the electrode for TIG welding.

I dunno... wedges, if played regularly, last what...about a season? I think there's an argument to be made against stamping iron sets/putters if you care about resale value, otherwise go for it... Finally if you're thinking about DIY'ing the wedges... make sure you get some practice in first, I also can't recommend an Anvil highly enough. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Here's my favorite one of my 3 wedges I've stamped. Just used a punch for the shape of Texas. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Right... clearly not a torch job. I went with Birchwood Casey Plum Brown, then a cold bluing on top of that, then sealed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

M2A gonzo... swapped. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Pic of original finish I think. http://s249.photobucket.com/user/B0nZ69/media/newport/DSC05357.jpg.html Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Yeah man I have a blasting cabinet. And occasionally will blast b4 heating if I'm going for a muted, satin finish. Though the idea on the latest finish was to try to replicate (as closely as possible) the oilcan finish that this was originally finished in. I don't have a plating setup or bluing tank, so it's been a lot of trial and error to try to get that mix of blues and browns that was Cameron's best finish imo. Anyway it's intentionally uneven, at least the most recent post is. Good looking out on the suggestion tho. Thanks man! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

This is as close as I can get to the original finish on the old school Cameron oilcan classics. This was in real rough shape when I picked it up, but I only have one pic from then, unfortunately.

Did you ever move those miuras? If not, and you've still got em, consider them sold. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Imo the Wedge vs putter is an apples/oranges comparison. Putting is and should be generally pretty low impact- that is, the collision between ball and club is, well it's hardly even a collision. Contrasted against the strike that occurs on a full wedge swing... I've worn the faces of brand new vokeys down in a summer before. I was playing daily, but still, repeated impact takes a toll. Paint will chip scuff and look like hell after a few strikes - full swings are violent. I have a vokey that I did in polymer and a Callaway 3 iron. Neither finish lasted through impact with more than 4 balls. I'll find pics and post. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I've always wondered how well that stuff works Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Should have it or a reasonable equivalent at Home Depot/Lowe's/walmart. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

If the finish is painted then tal-strip or equivalent will work. If it's plated, pvd, etc... you're gonna want to blast or sand the existing finish off. The group can prob help with a little more detail... what kind of putter, or maybe a pic and someone will be able to chime in with something useful. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

That's the color it should've been finished in originally. Hope Mr Rife is taking notes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
