Sí, bienvenidos al foro. Claro, Estan alguien aqui, desde mexíco, argentina, españa, y paises otros hispanohablante.

welcome, we have a number of people here from Spanish speaking countries.

which makes me think, I had a lady ask me to make some tools the other day. punches and stamps.
She sent me a link to the jpg that showed them and the shelf was marked

'Huñetas' I can't find it in the dictionary.
cinceles and cincelado and repujado pero huñetas no
Does that indeed mean makers mark, or is it some more general term.
funny how words we use in the shop don't make it into dictionaries.

the shelf above looked like it had makers marks/ touch marks and pattern stamps and one could see some texturing stamps, chisels in the boxes below.
