Another Attempt At Stamp Making

Recommended Posts

This is a stamp that I milled out tonight using acrylic as a material. I was surprised that it worked as well as it did and seemed to be more than strong enough. My cutter that I was using for the cleanup pass broke and so I ended up doing the cleanup work by hand with the dremel tool.

Stamped a bit deeper and then I touched up a couple of spots with the back of an x-acto knife to add in some finer details.

Thanks. It all started because I wanted to make a makers stamp, I'm sure eventually I'll actually get around to it. LOL

This particular stamp was made from a graphic that I used to make an airbrush stencil.

very cool, and I'm surprised that the acrylic is holding up as well as it is.

Me to. I didn't really expect it to. It's milled from a 1/2" thick piece.

I think I might take some 1/4" aluminum and epoxy it to the back of the stamp to make it even stronger, but so far it seems like it works fine without it.
