*Making the stamp was the goal of this video,* not actually using it! I'm not a leather maker.
I haven’t moved into lasering leather yet but want to eventually for products such as wallets and coasters because it’s just a rich looking and feeling material, so I appreciate any content you do produce related to leather. (Even if you aren’t a leatherworker.)
I have a couple of leather videos, like a hat patch and keychain.
Delrin machines beautifully on the lathe too.
I would guess so!
LONG AGO I DID A LOT OF MACHINING OF DELRIN FOR SLIDES AND BEARINGS. NICE TO WORK WITH.
Yes it is!
Use your drill press as a press. A lot of branding irons are intended to be mounted in a drill press. Glue it to a wood or metal backer to distribute weight and make a precise easily repeatable embosser if you need to batch out a bunch.
That wasn't the goal of this video, and I don't plan on actually making these.
Been machining Delren/acetel for about 30yrs, most used in medical. autoclaves great, very durable.
Amazing stuff!
There's just so much you can do with lasers. Thanks for sharing another informative video
Thanks for watching David!
Thanks Rich, yet another new area to explore.
You bet, thanks for watching!
Rich , you are the man , I really appreciate you doing this video
You are a wizard at what you do
I have really learned a ton of knowledge from your videos
Keep it up sir !!
I appreciate that!
Came across a rubber stamp laser diode vid, did not think about Delrin. Going to try this on my 2.5W, got Delrin from my CNC mill days.
Should work fine, just take a lot longer.
Thanks for video. I have been carving Deldrin on CNC. It works really well and a lot easier to machine than Perspex. I have not yet tried on laser engraver. I will try on both blue diode and IR 1064.
Awesome! 👍 Thanks for watching!
Great info, thanks.
Moisten the leather and strike the stamp with a mallet.
Thanks, but the goal of this video was simply to make the stamp and see how it machines on the laser.
Rich, first off thank you for another informative video.
Hey, you have a woodworking bench in your video shop and I can clearly see a bench vise on the end of it. Try embossing the leather using that vise.
I didn't think of using that vice! But that wasn't really the goal of this video.
Just a heads-up. Heating Delrin releases formaldehyde and something called carbon black, both supposedly carcinogenic. I use Delrin a lot, turn it on my lathe (cuts beautifully), but made the mistake one time to push a heated steel rod into a piece of Delrin. OMG, the smoke almost killed me. It was really nasty. It burned my nose, throat, and got into my lungs. Obviously, lasering does not burn that much Delrin at a time, but people might want to make sure to have great exhaust systems.🙏🏼
I put that warning in the video.
Did not see the part where you say that formaldehyde is released, and that it is carcinogenic, sorry.
Toward the end of the video, you'll see all the warnings scrolling up the screen.
Thanks for the great info! PROBLEM, I keep flaming on vector cuts. I have Universal VLS.4.60. 50 watt 2.0 lens. No air assist.
1/8 inch black Delrin , Power set to High, speed 20%. Per your video, maybe I should try power low and speed low….spent several hours so far trying to figure this material out.
You should add an air assist.
WE use Delrin to make machine parts in a Fertaliser Plant in Ballinger TX
Awesome! Thanks for the comment!
@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy you are welcome I watch all of your videos have learned a lot from them
Can you please make a video on adding a nema 11 to your z axis?
I haven't done that, nor do I plan to, sorry.
I have been toying with laser cutting leather stamps. MDF works well but I don’t expect it would last; especially applied to damp leather. Of course if that’s what you have got, it only takes a few minutes to make a replacement.
I have been expecting acrylic to be a longer lasting and water resistant alternative. I do have to sand the un-etched surface of the acrylic to get it smooth again after the laser etching since it deforms adjacent to the cuts.
I haven’t used the stamps made from either for enough repetitions to be more than guessing about the longevity of either.
I have been wondering what other hard plastic might work. Sounds like Delrin is the one to try next.
I did figure out early on that (in Lightburn) you want to use the “Ramp outer edge” function under the “Advanced” tab in the fill mode cut settings editor, to add a bit of slope to the sides of your stamp cuts. That makes especially fine features in stamps a lot more durable.
Awesome! 👍 Thanks for watching!
Delvin is considered an engineering plastic. This could be a great way to cut gears for robotics.
Yes, I read that!
What you are doing is embossing the leather. Nice information! Thank you!😁🛫
You’re welcome 😊 Thanks for finding the word I misplaced! 🤪
@@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy I have a great deal of respect for you! You are forever giving to the community!
POM, The stuff V wheels are made from.
I see the same wavy pattern in that first engraving that people complain about from 3D printers. Guess it's a universal issue.
Yep, same stuff!
Hi, can I use acrylic sheet instead of delrin?
Sure, why not?
Hi Rich! Is the lasermatic10 library available to download in you forum?
No, it's included on the USB drive than comes with the laser. If you don't own a LaserMATIC 10, you can purchase it here:

You wet the leather and then press the stamp or tap it in with a hammer
Making the stamp was the goal of this video.
Wet the leather first.
Thanks for the tip!
😢wetting the leather would make it stamp better
Snap. But it only works on new natural leather that is not finished like in the video. Not sure about how good it is on other leathers.
I don't do leather stamping, but thanks for the tip!
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyoxymethylene In addition, POM can have undesirable characteristics when burned. T........ Burning also releases formaldehyde gas, which irritates nose, throat, and eye tissues.
The warnings are in the video.
