Name That Machine
I was watching "How It's Made" and they were doing a restoration on an old Winchester rifle. At one point, they redid the barrel markings by rolling a stamp over the barrel that re-imprinted the lettering. It appeared that the machine was purely mechanical and maintained pressure on the circular stamp. Does anyone know what that kind of machine is called?

They have an exceedingly clever name for this device - it's called a "roll marking machine".

Thanks Jeff. I searched every combination of "metal", "stamp", "emboss", "machine", and "tool" that I could think of.

The most trusted name in barrel and shaft imprinting since 1969.
