Working method

From blank plank to filed mark

Rangepat follows the order a brand actually travels: drawn, checked against the register, test-burned, then entered in the book. Each stage is its own bench.

Composing on the Brand Bench

  • Choose from 12 classic iron elements and 7 position modifiers.
  • Stack a mark up to 8 strokes deep.
  • Set exact stroke width and gap, in millimetres or inches.
  • The reading engine calls the brand aloud in stockman's order as you build, for example "The engine reads tumbling diamond."
  • A live legibility index and burn-area figure update with every stroke.

Checking the register

  • The alterations engine generates every one- and two-stroke variation of your design.
  • Each variant is collided against the seeded county register.
  • Results are graded Clear, Watch or Exposed, so surprises at the brand office come out on your phone first.
  • Exposure is a count, such as Exposure 2 with a Watch pill, not just a colour.

Burning on the Burn Bench

  • Four inputs: iron face width, heat band, hold time and timber moisture.
  • Heat bands run Yellow, Light orange, Orange, Bright cherry and Cherry.
  • The verdict is one of eight faults: Blotched, Thin, Skipped, Doubled, Drawn, Charred, Feathered or Crusted.
  • Photograph a practice plank, drop stroke pins on the photo and log what the iron tells you.

Keeping the brand book

  • A county-style register of your marks, listed alphabetically with a letter index.
  • Entries carry a recorder code and year, such as LS / 1952, or DRAFT when unfiled.
  • Filter by All or Flagged.
  • Each folio offers four actions: Read it back, On the bench, Lift the flag and Export the plate.
The toolbox

Six benches in one pocket studio

No accounts, no sync screens. Each tool does one job a brand inspector would recognise.

01

Brand Bench

Build with 12 iron elements and 7 position modifiers, up to 8 strokes deep, and hear the engine read the mark back in stockman's order.

02

Alterations Engine

Every one- and two-stroke variation is generated and collided with the seeded county register, then graded Clear, Watch or Exposed.

03

Burn Bench

Slide iron face width from 3.0 to 16.0 mm, pick a heat band, set hold time and moisture. The same inputs always return the same fault verdict.

04

Brand Book

A personal register with a letter index. The sample book holds 18 entries, with flagged marks and unfiled drafts called out in words.

05

The Rack

A catalogue of 8 tools, filtered by All, Irons, Fire and Bench. The Stamp rod covers 5.0 to 14.0 mm and holds heat 4.5 minutes.

06

Offline Ledger

Everything runs without a signal, from the corral to the back pasture. Your brand book stays on the device you built it on.

Spec sheet

Under the hood of the iron studio

The reading engine follows written rules. Rule 1 opens the course. Rule 4 says a position modifier is spoken before the element it hangs on. A mark such as a diamond with a slash at its upper corner therefore reads as "tumbling diamond", and the screen shows which rule produced each word.

Register checking is exhaustive rather than fuzzy. The alterations engine enumerates every single- and double-stroke change to your design, tests each against the seeded county register and reports an exposure count. A mark can score 100 of 100 for legibility and still carry Exposure 2, so both figures sit side by side.

The Burn Bench is deterministic. Iron face width, heat band, hold time and timber moisture map to one of eight faults, so a bright cherry iron held 2.5 s on seasoned timber gives the same answer every time. It is a prediction aid for practice planks, and the Rack's Electric rod, held at one band, is the tool suggested for proving a composition.
