Board: Stamp Carving and Mounting
I have posted a couple of photos of the K gouge: http://www.atlasquest.com/gallery/viewalbum.html?gAlbumId=3810 I intend to add more photos to this gallery. I'll post notes to this board when I do.

Since I'm not typically one to read on these message boards, forgive me if this subject has already been discussed BUT ...I just want to comment about Stampin Ups carving set that I tried out a couple days ago. First, no I don't sell Stampin Up. ;)....

YES!!!!! It's Raining!!!! Oh I hope it keeps raining all day. A nice slow rain that soaks into the ground. Boy can we use it. The ground here is as hard as a rock and cracked. Some of my plants have been drooping. They need a big drink of water. GH

I saw your Stazon "stacks" at the last event we attended and commented that I thought that was a great idea. Think I'll bookmark this post and take action on my own Stazon pads following your example soon.

Hey shoreline - welcome to the craziness. You asked what's next? Go find some boxes. Find some easy ones, find some hard ones, find some ugly ones (there really aren't any - well, yes there are), find some gorgeous ones (there's lots) just find some bo...

I love the idea of putting the dots inside the lids. I dont really use my staz on much, because of that reason. I use Versafine because it also is permanent. But I will use that tip for him.. I'm not sure what you meant about sticking them together....

Good review, thanks. I'm definitely interested in the grey stuff, if they would make larger blocks for discount prices. Just tried carving a detailed stamp on pink, and it was a disaster. We can still get Staedtlers on Stampeaz. I just bought a modif...

Yes, welcome! To begin, I would first suggest that you FIND at least 20 letterboxes before you begin to carve or plant. That will give you a feel for the variety of carving styles and also, hopefully, good ideas for where to plant. I know when I fir...

HH, Thanks so much for sharing these wonderful ideas. I have also seen your stacks and wondered how you did it. This is going to be my project for this upcoming week: to organize my ink pads more efficiently. And I did not know about the reinkers...H...

I have never really found a night box... Only at an event. We don't have any in C-Bus Ohio. I have been trying to think of a way to do one and where i could even hide it at. All parks close at dark and dont allow you in. :( I don't know anyone with any...

I always say something. I feel the owner/planter deserves more than just a "found" comment. If there is a problem with the box such as a soggy logbook, misspelling, obvious mistakes that should not have been made I make the comment private so the owner...

I almost always comment. Why? I just think it's a little nicer than only seeing the found report. I appreciate that the stamp was planted and I can take a quick moment to thank them and appreciate the location, stamp, clues, and so forth. I will almos...

I always comment on individual boxes and LTCs. Even if just a short note. And if the owner emails me back, I give them whatever details I can remember, if they need to know. Sometimes at events, there is a long series of boxes. In this case, I make...

I try to always leave a comment, be it "cute carve!" Or "replaced the ziplock." I know I'd like to see comments on my plants (if anyone would ever find them!) so I leave comments. LB karma. :)

There is a mystery box I am considering as my 1000 find. Why? You may ask, because it is less than 4 hours away from me, it has a location that I have wanted to get back to for awhile, and I have met the planter (and he is cool!) When I click on the...

When you find a traditional box or even a LTC do you leave a comment or not? This brings up a good question. When leaving a comment on a Hitchhiker Hostel, do you leave a comment take a comment, or do you just leave a comment never to be heard again?

I'm heading to southern Missouri the 3rd week of September. I have some letterbox searches planned. Anyone in the area interested in a meet-up? Or letterboxing together? This is a new area for me. I'll be staying near (not in) Branson.

If the owner had blocked finds, you would not see the "show finds" button. So I'm going with Option 1. Or possibly Option 4, "This box has been found but the finder did not record it." But I"m rooting for Option 1 because yes, that WOULD be so cool!

They are nearly invisible in daylight, easily visible from 100+ feet at night. Are these 4-D stealth firetacks the type you would recommend? Until I looked at these I was imagining some sort of glow in the dark material rather than a reflective tack....

That's what I would say too, option 1. You could be the FF. And if it happens to be opt 4 you can by the first to log it on AQ. Either way it sounds like a awesome 1000th box for ya, Don't Panic. Have fun finding it!

I always leave a comment. I enjoy it actually lol. I always like to see comments when one of my plants are found. I think most boxers do. Although I have seen before when the boxer doesn't allow comments to be posted..no comments at all. I like comment...

One comment I enjoyed on a box of mine, was "saw an otter in the pond". When I see things like that.... I know I found an awesome hiding spot! I myself never saw an otter near my boxes, even on one that is called Otter Trail! Whenever I see wildlife...

I usually leave a comment on AQ. Many times I feel rushed when stamping the logbooks and can't think of something witty to say. When I get back to the computer, I usually say something. If the box or logbook is damaged in a way that I cannot fix on...

Hi HH, Like your idea of the stick on lid covers. It sounds interesting. Are there pictures on AQ to see? I'm needing more ink, thanks for the tip. FF awesome pic of you and the friendly butterflies in your hair. That's too cool!

Thanks, Scouttrekkie. I've been meaning to change my profile for a while. It's nice to see siggy stamps... but it's also nice to know who you're talking to!

We are going to the Fair today. I know you probably want it out there until tomorrow but if you want me to grab it late today, let me know.

usually comment. if it's the 15th box of theirs i've found in a day, then i don't. especially if it's Wolfie's. Because, you know, her boxes. . . ~tigs
