I like the idea here. Question though, what if you glued the rubber to the wood, then placed the that under the laser and cut all the way to the wood? Instead of engraving all the rubber down. Just cut the excess rubber away, leaving your stamp?
Hi great, Just one question/sugestion why the double box? when you make the first square instead of grouping it with the design just leave it as a second layer as your cut layer. with out that as part od the ingraving it shoudl cut down y our time and keep it clean
Grouping the 2 squares makes no difference on burn time as one is line and the other is fill. I grouped them together for ease of movement around the Lightburn work space. It only takes a second to ungroup them if any changes are needed. Also, if the first square and the actual artwork are not grouped, it will fill both.
, @@LaserNoob Thank you but I think what I was trying to say the originail art work would be fill, the first square would be the c cut/line second layer, by having the first square grouped the laser has to go out there using the fill to make the box that your going to cut on anyway
Yes, but if the original artwork is fill, then I get the opposite of what I want for a stamp. On wood, yes the artwork would be fill and the square would be a cut line. But as I want the artwork raised for a stamp, everything around it needs to be burned off.
I bought a couple of sheets of this. Haven't used it yet but hopefully I can produce some stamps. Luckily I did build an enclosure.

I don't see any reason why that would not work.
