Starpuff! Super unique design with the intentional open center.
*** Tiny on 1/4" round stock, actual 4.4x3.6 mm.
*** Small on 1/4" round stock, actual 5.1x4.4 mm.
*** Medium on 3/8" round stock, actual 8.7x7.6 mm.
*** Large on 1/2" round stock, actual 11.9x10.1 mm.
Shanks are all a bit less than 3 inches (~75mm).
The center of these will puff up a bit. Add an underlayment between your metal and block and it will puff up even more. Careful not to make it too high, or the metal will top out and impress some of the texture of the flat area of the stamp. This can be an interesting textured look, too. :)
When pushing the boundaries to puff up the center, the outside edges will also warp a bit. Be prepared to figure a means to flatten those without affecting the center puff. This can be by back hammering on the edge of a piece of hardwood. Or carefully hammer from the top side. I may later offer a solution for this. Working on ideas.
***********************************
Remember you are buying the tool, not the impression. When I mention left or right I am referring to the tool/stamp itself.
These are sawed, filed and engraved by me.
They may each be a little different, as I make one for you special.
Hardened and then tempered tool steel. Rockwell hardness batch tested.
INTERNATIONAL: If you choose more than 3 or 4 stamps, shipping weight may be greater than 8 ounces and I'll need to invoice you for the extra postage. Thanks. I wanted to offer the multiple stamp deal regardless.
