RE: Making your mark? Marque?

[MWF]

I "Marque" the items I craft.  I was brought up that you "signed" your work (starting with all the homework and tests in school) - and it had better be well made enough to "deserve" your marque.
Yes, there are some things so small that I don't bother - but for the most part, I try to put the date and my name and/or company name on whatever I have a hand in in making.  If others are involved (team effort) I encourage all to sign/place their name on it.
I'd like to have a branding iron - but like others have mentioned, they can get really pricy.  The ones you heat with a propane torch are less expensive than the ones you plug into 120/220v electricity.
I do like the idea Max stated - permanently affix a shiney new penny of the year you made it.
Happy Easter & Passover to all!
Mac

Hello Everyone!

Just a short note, and a question for everyone.

First off, I hope everyone has a Happy Easter? (If you are not religious, Just take it as, Have a Greatest Weekend Possible . I know I will.)  ;-)

 

Now onto the Question.

On your projects how do you mark your works when done? I mean branding irons, stating who made this product. A marker of some-kind? or date???

Do things like that just don't interest you. or is it not important? What do you think?

 

 

Any Ideas or suggestions. .All input is welcome.Please join in. ;-)

C.A.G.
