There's a fellow by the name of Dar Lu that makes metal stamps for leatherworkers and jewellers( and probably plenty of other trades), and all you need to do is supply an image and dimensions and he does the rest.

Hope this helps.

Hi,
   Do you know any students about year 10 or 11?
CAD is a big part of the learning at a local college.

Yes, but it's a not very clear jpeg , but I can add meaurements and the original photo if that would help. It is a pretty simple pictureto draw by hand.

Try fusion 360. It's easy and quick to learn.

No problem,

I'm sure you can send them a mud map and they can sort it from there.

Not everyone who needs a stamp made is a CAD genius  ;D:cheers:

Give them a try.
