Ever wanted your own custom personalised rubber stamp?

This workshop will take you through turning your own text, logo or other
design into a rubber stamp in minutes using our laser cutter and some
specialised rubber sheeting. You get to keep your finished stamp (max
approx 50x50mm). It will help greatly if you have already selected some
artwork to use.

Stamping isn't just for ink and paper either, you can personalise
clothing, decorate pottery, make custom wallpaper, and many other
artistic and creative uses

This workshop is open to members and non-members alike, no previous
experience is required, and all materials will be provided. You may like
to bring your own laptop to work on your design during the workshop, we
suggest using the opensource Inkscape software
