A while ago, I produced a set of 3D printed stamps for a friend, consisting of numerals, letters and a special character (a maple leaf). He was able to provide me with a font that had all of the necessary characters.
Now he has asked for a new stamp with a special character (lonesome pine) that is not part of a font. Instead he has provided images in some different formats, bmp, jpg, tif and others. I tried this before with the maple leaf character but it was too complicated. When he was able to identify a font for me, that solved that problem.
So, here I am again to ask if it’s any easier today to get the lonesome pine image onto my stamp base.
The stamp base has a cylinder that will hold a 1/4" dowel to act as a handle. On top of the cylinder is a square block that will hold the character. In this skp, the square block is 1/2" square. I will also have to make one with a larger image on a 1" square. I’m hoping to attach the image on the top face of the square and then extrude it so it will work as a stamp.
Here’s the skp of my base with 1/2" square block on top of the cylinder, and also a jpg image of the lonesome pine.
