  1. I got mine made in china for 13 bucks incl shipping from my own artwork.
  2. have some test stuff printed at a local print shop on different printers to help you decide. I can make some stamps on my ender v3 but really detailed stuff fails because it has a 0.4 mm nozzle so any features smaller than disappear amd features that get cut off when the design gets converted into a 0.4mm wide tool path. Also the plastic is quite weak so unless you make the stamp part really thin the small features will break. Stuff like a McDonalds logo an inch wide should work fine, a starbucks logo in that size would be problematic, a coca cola logo would be impossible. I can get better resolution if i put in a smaller nozzle and tweak settings but i have not done that yet so i can't say how that would turn out. A resin printer can print more resolustion than a standard fdm printer but i have no idea if those prints are strong enough.
  3. nice. just sharpened mine carefully with some 1200 grit paper and it's a beast!
  4. Hi, i picked this up second hand years ago. it's obvious that it's some kind of grooving compass but i am puzzled by the curved end on one of the legs. is it used to cut a groove ? It is close to being sharp and one size has a nick in it so i assume it was sharp once but i may be wrong. Even without knowing how to use it exactly, it makes very nice straight lines It is stamped with "Blanchard Paris" does this mean its from before Blanchard started working with other people; 1830-1840 ish ?
