My husband is really into wood working and has made some beautiful furniture for our house. He wants to eventually start taking orders for outside customers, I thought it would be neat for a present to get him a brand for the pieces he makes. Does anyone know the best place to get one made or is there a better way or "branding" your work??

Does it have to be a special kind of branding iron? When I got my small iron made the first thing (and only thing so far, lol) I branded were my wooden cutting boards. It turned out pretty good, but just curious if there is something better? Flying 45 branding irons made mine and they were super easy to work with. Good luck! Sounds like a really neat idea!

When I was looking to have our freeze brand made, I found some that made smaller electric brands that I believe could brand pretty much anything. I would think that would work for wood. L&H branding irons is one that shows some all purpose irons on their website.

We use our electric on pretty much anything. I would think any branding iron would work. But maybe you could do a google search for a stamp that can be burned into the wood. Almost like a leather maker mark stamp but for wood? I've seen them, I know they exist, but I have no idea what they're called or where to buy one.

There is a place called branding buddies and they sell small brands I've used mine not only on leather but wood as well, they made me a custom one from a drawing it wasn't very expensive I want to say under $50.
