Enjoyed the video.....I have made an assembly you may want to try. Worked well for me and hoping that the PLA will hold up well. Will now see if I can figure out how to send you photos.Posted them on your Facebook page.
As soon as I saw this I thought: Wow, that's a cool idea if you are a hand-builder and use that as your bottom. Where'd you get your stamp made? Thanks for all of your videos.
You solve every problem! That is cool! I would like to know if you made your stamp or what... Best logo application I've seen. Gotta send one to Jon...
Hi, Justin, you are a life saver!! i tried the way you show us how to put a stamp on the mug, and your video it was very helpful, thank you! Now i have a question about the oil i used to avoid the stamp stick on clay. Is the oil going to be a problem when i do the bisque or glaze firing?? Andif I need to put underglaze on it, it is going yo affect the underglaze?? please help!!! thank you!
I am using the canola oil spray and it is working wonderfully for stamping, but I’m curious.. Can the oil stain the clay? I am using a white stoneware and my greenware has a bit of weird discoloration from the oil. Does this go away once fired for you?
If you held a small throwing sponge inside the soft mug on the wheel, might that help to give a good impression, it being able to cover the area more evenly that your fingers?? And could you use cornstarch instead of oil for making stamps releasable?? I tend to do that and have not had any problems.
I've had a hard time using backers like a sponge. A little too soft for me. Hard items like pipe sections work well, but stick to the clay as well. I think a plaster or bisque fired form to use inside the mug when stamping is where I'm looking next. I have used Talc as a release agent, but I find the oil releases better, especially with a deep and intricate stamp. Thanks for the comments!
How are you attaching the piece to the mug? My dad is trying to make these for my business but the rounds keep exploding off the mug during firing. It’s hard to get them on the mug firmly without distorting the image.
I slip and score them onto the mug. The key is to keep both the mug and logo at the same dryness. It's also wise to dry them slower than you might normally, and also try to attach the logo without capturing a large air pocket behind it. The cooking spray should let you handle and attach the logo without too much distortion. An extra day under plastic can make a big difference. If they dry evenly together, I have no problems with them popping off in the kiln.
Justins Makery Just placed an order for one of the tools on your site! So happy we came upon you today. Hopefully it will make this process faster and easier
In one of Jon the potters videos he scored the whole sheet before he makes his cutouts. Then you flip it over stamp out and viola. It was a game changer for me and sped up the process as well as limited handling too. Love your stamps bought three so far.
I want to know how i can engrave print or write on clay glass (search- kulad) I want to print different messages on every glass i sell to have a tea or any hot drink. I would really appreciate your response
Hi there! Corn starch could be a good substitute to realise agent... Sprinkle it over the slab been helped by sieve...
I have the opening tool you use in this video - absolutely love it! Great recommendations for stamping too! Thx
Where can I purchase an “ opening tool?
@@margielinderI’m wondering this too! Did you get an answer?
Justin, you are a treasure!
Very helpful. Thank you for sharing this
Cool video! Ty for posting!
Thank you! Very helpful
Neat, how do avoid surface cracks when you bend the logo like that?
Could you use a tube wrapped with newspaper to size it larger and ease of removal, using any tube material that will work best. Pvc, cardboard, etc.

Hi! How can I make a stamp like that? Thanks
Thanks :)

If you bisque fire the piece, the oil will burn away without a problem. It works similar to how one might use wax as a resist.
@@JustinsMakery thank you for your reply!! I'll do that! Thank you!

Been reading on. Making those style stamps are you using clear acrylic and a 3D printer
Is the oil a problem burning off in an electric kiln? Can you show finished product please?
No problem at all. The oil burns off in the bisque fire in my electric kiln. No smoke or funny smells either. It's really a very small amount of oil.

@@JustinsMakery I thought your vid was great, thanks for the info!!
How do I get ahold of you to make a potters stamp?
Did you make the stamp?
Have you ever tried making stamps that are curved, such that it can be "rolled" over the surface?
Where do you get your stamps
I make them and also offer custom stamps for sale on my website www.justinsmakery.com
When you spray your clay with oil do you just wedge the scrap pieces back together to reuse? And does the oil cause problems when rewedging?
Good question. I don't reuse the clay once it has oil on it. I haven't ever tried reclaiming it.
Missys Destiny perhaps you can pre-cut your shapes before adding the oil spray. This way your scraps are clean and can be reused.
Hi Justin, how much clay are you using to make the mugs to go with this stamp size?
Generally a mug is about a pound of clay for me.
Just seeing this, thank you! Next question is, why are the dimensions of your medallions? 😂

Justins Makery thanks so much for the quick reply! I’ll pass that on to my dad and hopefully we can have more success!

Good afternoon, I would like to have you make me a couple of stamps like these. Can you message me so we can discuss it please? Thank you
