Greetings,

I've used brass name plates before but has anyone used a rubber stamp like the one below?

Thank you.

Do you sell these?
 
Hi, No we're building a series of concrete containment drums and information has to be cast into them which follows the outside diameter of the drum. Thought someone on here may have some information. The quote we received for contoured brass inserts is out of the park and these should conform to the mold. Google it if you need to buy one i guess.

Herb1967....no, just curious. Negative forms are used a lot in architectural concrete so this should be fine. Because the letters have tight spaces around them, you need to make sure the concrete is fluid and plastic enough, with very small coarse aggregate, to get into the spaces and fill all the voids that need to be filled so that you have good definition of your stencil.

Good luck.
 
You might want to reach out to: While their main focus is form liners, they do produce custom form liners and may be able to produce what you need. Their elastomeric product is excellent and can be made with a variety of backing materials.

See if they'll make one with "Jimmy Hoffa" on it.
