Trodat Printy 4912 Self Inking Rubber Stamp – DIY with 4 Lines Text, Black, 3/4” x 1-7/8”

Good price and great product

This is the third time I’ve purchased this set. Not because the other ones were ineffective but because as I have told people how versatile this is, they are wanting one as well. I have one to use at home and one to use at the church. As a notary signing agent, I have to repeatedly write the month on documents of greater than 100 pages. I started to purchase custom stamps for each month (except the months with few letters) but that was getting expensive. I got this to easily change the months each time a new month rolls around. I make the stamper the current month and then change it out as the next month rolls around. This is great for that and much less expensive than trying to purchase custom stamps for each month.At the church, we send out different mailings throughout the year and we include return envelopes with them. Previously, we were placing labels in the bottom left corner of the envelopes so that we could keep track of what the returned envelope was for but now we just stamp the envelopes as needed.It’s very easy to change the wording, using the stamp for that need and then change it up for the next project. It comes with a good supply of upper and lower case letters as well as symbols and numbers. Each impression is clear and crisp. I would definitely recommend this set and more than likely will be purchasing it again for other needs.

You gotta have a lot of patience with this thing. It's because the pieces are so small. There is a tweezers to use, but it's still a tad laborious due to the micro-sized letters.If you can manage to be patient and take your time, the result is cool. Typeface is kinda retro, which I like a lot.Not recommended for those with shaky fingers and no patience.VERY recommended for those who can get over these hurdles! Works great.

Quite bulky but it does the stated job. Definetly not a pocket stamp but a desk stamp. Assembly of the letters on the stamp is simple but takes patience and trial to get the perfect spacing. Plan for between 5 and 15 minutes to get it right. The included tweezers are a must as is good eyesight. There seem to be far more than enough letters and numbers and symbols to compose the most complex message. There are also two different sizes of lettering for the appearance of a subtitle. The letters can easily be removed or changed if desired (ie. change in business address). The printed stamp appears clear and clean. No major complaints.

This little print device was a bit harder to use than I thought it would be. To insert the really small print tabs takes a tremendously long time to do. They fall onto the floor a lot and you have to search for them. To make a three-line address pad it takes about 20 minutes. If you have several different addresses to print, it is very time consuming.

It works very well and I enjoy getting the type set. The plastic tweezers were very helpful in picking up and setting the type.

The stamp itself works fine, but the ink in it doesn't dry and smears forever. I bought to stamp expiration dates and coupon codes on rack card discount cards on the back which are a matte finish. Even stamping 30 and laying them out to dry before restacking them was not long enough for them to dry. Then I stamped some (and they smeared all over the place and were hardly legible) and restacked them anyways (had let them dry like 5 minutes) and they still smeared and 5 days later when I was passing them out my hands were black from the ink (which after much handwashing are still black). This stamp is totally worthless to me and my business because it is unusable on anything except something like construction paper.

The device was easy to assemble with included instructions. I used a plain sheet of paper to stamp several times first to get a good coverage of ink on the letters. It worked as expected providing a good inked stamp. It is simplistic with no fancy letters, etc, which filled our needs.
