Others do it well but my Kingsley machine has been sitting in my garage for about 7 years unused with about 8 fonts. I do not wish to sell it, yet.

It is a market that I have not gone into due to the setup time and the non-expertise I have. I need a sample piece to play with to get the right settings, and do not usually have that luxury. I have done napkins and ribbons and an occasional other item. I do not have any true gold foil so I would not even try leather. (Brass foil turns green very fast due to the tannic acid in leather.)

Harvey,

In absence of true gold foil, there are crossover foils that come very close in appearance, and adhere to leather very well.

The small Kingsley machine you own can be used to place single color logos on plastic namebadges. Multiple colors are possible, but the registration is more hassle than it's worth, for a short run.
