A suggestion for you I had an uncle in 60’s that made rubber stamps as a side job. One thing I did learn was that stamps that had an arc or radius on the stamp did a better job than a flat stamp like what you made. So when you wanted to stamp some using a rolling effect worked better especially for large stamps. The other Idea I had would be to engrave the text of the stamp on the side rather than the top like yours. And to further refine the stamp make a handle on the top. Another great project thank you! After seeing this I think I will make a stamp for my grand daughter with her name on it so she can stamper name every ware in her room and on the walls. It will be great way to get back at her mother. My step daughter. Being a grand parent is wonderful thank you for the idea! You always come up with them. 😁🛫
What a cool project!! You are having more fun with your laser than anyone should have! I bet your Granddaughter will have a very long list of requests for stamps she would like 🇨🇱🤠
She hasn't provided me with a list yet, but she doesn't enjoy using the stamps and covering the paper with them....and Pop's hand.....and the desk.....and....well you get the idea. LOL. Thanks for tuning in Randy.
Kenny, what an absolutely cool idea. The possibilities are endless. I know I will be giving this a try. Guess I had better get or build an enclosure for my laser before I get started…. Thanks for introducing me to this rabbit hole…lol
It can be addictive can't it. LOL. Good luck with your stamps Paul. I'd be interested to see what you come up with. Maybe you need to do your version of this for your viewers so that they can benefit from your experiments as well. Thanks for tuning in.
Great video as always, I incorporated an Atom Stack camera on my 10 Watt Longer Ray 5 laser! I did the same with my previous Ortur Master laser. A camera greatly enhances the ability to accurately place your stock or move your file to the stock. I use Lightburn as well and the versatility with Lightburn and a camera combined is amazing! 😁🛫
@@acutabove_woodworkings After you get your camera set up you will think how did i get along with out it? another feature of Lightburn and a camera. I can engrave something pick it up look at if i want to run another pass over it move the image over the previous engraved pass. I also test with off cuts by drawing a circle and burn it in to the wood . update the camera image and if the burn pattern is not in extract alignment there are setting on the camera tab to adjust the image over top of the burn . burn another to check alignment. 😁🛫
Absolutely brilliant idea ... not only saving a ton of money but being able to create exactly what you want rather than having to aim for something close ... your house is going to be covered by stamp marks when your daughter gets hold of these 🤣
That's why she is only allowed to use these with an adult right now. Too much temptation to see how the happy face would look on the door or on Pop's roll top desk. LOL. Thanks for tuning in Barry.
Each stamp takes about 3-5 minutes to engrave. It's a fairly quick process once you get the setting dialled in. I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
But I feel that laser engraving may not result in a smooth surface. If we want better details or are looking for mass production, heat stamping is a better option
You make my head hurt! My list of projects grows every time I see you! This is fabulous! What a fun thing to do
It was definitely fun Bob and it was super easy. I hope you will give this one a try. Thanks for tuning in

Hi Kenny, what a great little project. This looked so much fun, get ready for all the smiley faces on your hand🤣
On my hand, on my desk, on my computer, on my face. LOL. Thanks for tuning in Philip.
Great idea. Thanks for sharing your experiment.
You're very welcome. Glad that you liked it. Thanks for tuning in.
You're going to have 😊 all over the place. Great little thing for your granddaughter.
She loves it Mark. Thanks for tuning in to the show this week.
That was cool Kenny! Take care!
Glad that you liked it Michael. Thanks for tuning in to the show.

I've been considering a camera on the laser but haven't taken the plunge yet. Great idea. Thanks for tuning in and for chiming in with your setup.

UR having to much fun with that laser.
I do enjoy working with it and trying new things Karl. Thanks for tuning in this week. Great to hear from you.

You need to make a stamp of the guy in the pic by your right elbow @ 22:11 in the video. I am sure your granddaughter would love that one.
That would be awesome. I may just have to do that Richard. LOL. Thanks for tuning in and for the suggestion.
How long did it take to engrave?

Then by all means, heat stamp the stamp. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
