Vintage Stamps in acrylic

[Schroedc]

Worked up a few blanks using vintage stamps from the 40's through 60's Here is a couple of them with a matching presentation box. I laser engrave the lid and apply the same stamp as those used in the pen.

Using Silmar 41 and the Mesa kit from Woodturningz

Colin,
How did you seal the stamp before applying your CA?

I don't actually. I've worked out a streamlined process where it isn't needed. Also, no CA used at all in my process.

Fantastic Concept and Execution, Colin.
Excellent Fit and Finish, on an Ideal Kit.
Love the Unique Box, Engraved for each Pen, and an Matching Stamp Attached.
Superb Workmanship.
Congratulations,
Brian.

Very cool. I love those vintage stamps. I have some ration stamps from WWII. I plan to do something similar to what you did.

Great job on those two pens. Really like the matching box. That really sets the pen off.

Nice job on the pens and case.

Looks Great! I have a sheet of those exact nurse stamps that I've applied over blue and white woven fiber. They are fun to work with. Good Job!
