Custom Designs

 

If you didn't see the design you want, here is where you can get it made.

Here is how it works.

  1. Send me an image of what you want. If you want a leather stamp, please include the size of the stamp block you want it on.
  2. I will evaluate your image and size request and send you a laser format proof.
  3. If you are happy with step 2, I will send you a PayPal invoice.
  4. Onde the invoice is paid, I will make it and ship it to you by USPS Priority flat rate mail.

What does a custom design cost?

  • The charge based upon the size of the stamp block.
  • If the design is something I think will sell to others there is no design charge. (my decision)
  • If I don't think it is marketable to other than you there is a design charge based upon its complexity.
  • Then there is an $8.00 shipping charge.
  • Quantity discounts can be negotiated.

Leather stamp blocks are made from Delrin. Some people call it plastic, and it is, but it is a very tough plastic. Here is a paper I wrote on Delrin. It should be enlightening if you don't already know about it.

High Definition laser cut leather stamps!

December 2018 - Cutting leather stamps with a laser gives and HD advantage to your custom stamp/maker's mark.

I have made a lot of stamps using an end mill, and they work quite well. But resolution of the stamp is limited to the diameter of the end mill bit. In this case 0.025". On a small stamp it is often necessary to simplify the stamp to make it work.

The focused beam diameter on my industrial cutting laser is 0.004". The power necessary to cut the stamp is <1/3rd the total power available. It takes more time to design the stamp, but the time it takes the laser to cut the stamp is 1/10th of what it takes to cut using an end mill.

Here is an example of custom designed HD Laser cut stamps. I Note that the stars on the flag stamp are properly formed and if this same stamp was cut using an end mill, the stars would be oversized dots  with no points. All of these could not have been done on an end mill.

So what do they cost? The same as a mill cut leather stamp. And that is mostly based upon the cost of the bar stock that the stamp is made from. Yes, the laser costs 5 times more than the end mill, but that is an intangible cost to the end product.

So...
