Howto

  • See FreeCAD Lettering Tutorial for how to create extruded letters
  • Put a pad under text in FreeCAD, lower than text height
  • Add a handle
  • Export as STL
  • Note that image will be mirrored left to right if stamped as it. Thus - in Cura, Mirror the image. Use Mirror X if appropriate so your text reverses frm let to right
  • Print with rubber. Rubber allows ink to spread more evenly on paper. (Rubber or other ( Flexible Filaments ) ?)
  • Rubber stamp will print correctly with mirrored image.
