  <title>Rubber Stamps?</title>
  <link>http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&amp;goto=39471&amp;th=7275#msg_39471</link>
  <description><![CDATA[My name is Wil Ooms, retired in Haaksbergen The Netherlands, spent many years in the hand stamp industry, introducing several manufacturing methods for both rubber and pre-inked stamps. I am wondering if there is a rubber type material, which can be printed with a 3D printer?<br />
<br />
I could provide the required stamp parameters.<br />
<br />
It would interest me to speak with someone who would want to look into producing a hand stamp.<br />
<br />
Thanks, Wil]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Hi Wil, <br />
<br />
There are rubber printers, but currently shapeways doesn't have rubber. I don't know where it is on the list of potential to be added, but it has been mentioned before<br />

  <description><![CDATA[Thanks Mike, when you open the following link: <a href="http://www.shapeways.com/creator/stampmaker" target="_blank">http://www.shapeways.com/creator/stampmaker</a><br />
you will see that Shapeways offers stamps, obviously they must have material to do so. SInce I am new to this 3D printing market the situation is not quite clear. Does Shapeway sell the printers, the materials and the finished product? <br />
<br />
Most likely I should try to contact Shapeways to find out.<br />
<br />
Best regards, Wil]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[I went back in time to see what I could find, and it appears the stamps weren't rubber, but a flexible clear material. <br />

  <description><![CDATA[That is very possible, even today stamps are often made with photopolymer with a photographic process. The rubber was before the polymer and came back into the industry by the use of laser engravers. A 3D printer would not necessarily need to use rubber. Any material being flexible with a decent capability  to pick up / transfer ink could do the job.]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Depending upon the type of stamp you are trying to make.. one thing that might work well is to use Shapeways to print the negative MOLD for the stamp.  I would imagine that the WSF or WD materials would survive several castings each.<br />
<br />
You might even try using Image Popper for this purpose.]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Making the master mold is an option, but it will be a long way around. In that case a laser engraver engraving directly on the rubber is much more effective. I had hoped that a 3D printer could print the rubbery type characters.]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[It sounds like you are wanting to stamp with ink, which I have not tried. I can say I have made a stamp for pressing into clay. The WSF material works just fine for this. I assume that such stamps could also be used with ink, but I have not tried that. It might be worth a shot...WSF is pretty cheap.]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Indeed, a rubber stamp, to be used in combination with an ink pad or into what is called a self-inking stamp, which is a plastic housing in which the text plate (either rubber or photopolymer) reciprocates against the ink pad when it is being used. SInce I am new to this forum I am wondering what WSF means? Thanks!]]></description>
