Abstract:
1. A rubber stamp printing device for use in a stamping process, comprising: a magnetic stamp mount having an upper surface and a substantially rigid and planar lower surface opposite the upper surface, the stamp mount having a magnetic means imbedded therein; the magnetic means comprising distinct vertical magnets imbedded in a vertical direction substantially through the entire thickness of said stamp mount from said upper surface to said lower planar surface; and at least one stamp die having an ink receiving printing surface and a second surface opposite the printing surface, wherein means for holding ink in a pattern corresponding to an ink image are formed on said printing surface, said stamp die being formed of rubber material and including a magnetic material to form a functional stamp-die magnet; wherein said second surface of said stamp die is releasably secured to said planar lower surface of said stamp mount due to the magnetic attraction of said distinct vertical magnets in said stamp mount to the magnetic material of said stamp die to allow the stamp die to be unmovably fastened onto the mount during stamping but easily manipulated and repositioned by a user at any time prior to, during, or after the stamping process.
