That really puts the icing on it!

That is a low price too, as I've not seen Fordite under $10 a gram. I have some GMCite, tho not as pretty as Fordite, wider banding.

I was thinking the same thing as Dave as far as the price of Fordite goes. Nate

I want to make a stamp with my initials for stamping silver and I found a drill bit that might work but it is so hard that I am having a lot of trouble working it. any ideas

It is about as bad as an American dollar. Neither one has any silver in them, anymore.

You would be better of buying a small chisel or punch to make your stamp. Mike
