Tried to make a stamp today with my 3D printer using PLA for the handle and TPU for the stamp. Results are meh. Maybe the flow rates arenโt right which leaves the gaps. I did use the iron feature on the top layer too.

Thatโs somewhat better. 100% infill (was 20%) and top iron at 20% flow (was 10%). Also using the TPU (85A) manufacturer settings file for Bambu P1S.

Stamps, stamps, stamps!
@AasaMariaHedberg I started with this model for the handle. Then sized a 10mm tall base that was 5mm larger than the artwork. Extrude the stamp part 2mm tall. And then the print settings in the previous posts. Have fun!
Custom stamp for use with a standard ink pad.The stamp is divided into 3 parts the main stamp body, a cap for the stamp to stop the ink from drying and a replaceable section for the text which should be printed in TPU.To add text use your preferred design tool to add 5mm tall text and extrude 2mm up, the stamp can accommodate 1 or 2 lines of text. Don't forget to mirror your text before you print!
@paulrickards @billgoats do it and report back. I'm curious what filament would work best
Usually seals are done in metal to suck the heat from the wax quickly. So you'd need something with good thermal conductivity

@byruit I'm sure Blender would work fine. I did these in Tinkercad. More details:
@paulrickards Ooh... these are SO NICE!
Btw: Do you know my icon cards? ๐

She was employee #10 and Creative Director at NeXT, the company formed by Steve Jobs after he left Apple in 1985. โ WikipediaWell, as a tribute to all these great graphical elements I made a set of plates with the most favorite ones. Just put them down with the included base, frame them all together or individually and hang them on the wall or use them as refrigerator magnets. To get the pixels clean and sharp, I recommend to print everything with a 0.2mm Nozzle. A 0.4mm nozzle will also work, but it will be better with the 0.2mm. The print time with the finer nozzle is about twice as high as with the larger ones. Color it as you want and print it upside down, if possible on a structured PEI plate. This guaranties a smooth surface. The current set of plates is designed so that you can stand them up with the base. If anyone needs cutouts for small magnets on the back, please let me know. I will gladly fulfill your wishes. Also if you want a specific icon to go with it, please contact me.
