Vintage Kingsley Hot Foil Stamping Machine And Accessories Model LM 55 NF
Item History & Price
It's an old machine (Roughly 1960s) but it still works, I have provided images of leather stamped on this machine.This model was designed for luggage, meaning it has a deep throat, the whole machine can also extend out off the bench its mounted to.The original handle lever is missing, but a replacement can easily be made or purchased. (I just use a screw driver)You can purchase a large variety of ty...pe kits and accessories for this machine on eBay.SLE Hot Printers still sells parts and type kits for Kingsley MachinesTo extend, simply pull out the locking pin, slide forward, and re-insert the pin into one of the holes.This allows you to reach deeper into larger projects such as tote bags or backpacks.
With this machine I am including two Gold (one shiny and and matte) foil as well as Silver and Brown.To use, simply turn the dial all the way up, let it heat almost to desired temperature and then turn down.Takes some practice but it's not hard to use, only took me maybe an hour of working with it to get it all figured out.There is a plate mounted on the back with recommended temperatures for different foil types.
I will also provide the users manual upon request, either as a pdf or, if you ask before I ship I will print it out and send it with the machine.
If anything is unclear, message me and I'll update the description.
