This ink pad is 240 x 310mm internally.
We find that a stamp needs to be smaller than each dimension to get in here. There is usually a bit of the body of the stamp sticking out further than the rubber stamp part. Also to allow some maneuverability so you can dab the stamp a few times in different places to get enough ink on the rubber for a good print.
For our custom hand stamps we recommend no taller than 230mm or no wider than 300mm to use in this ink pad. To get these inked well you need to get the stamp inside the little raised edge and in full contact across the surface of the stamp to get the best print from a stamp.
How to make the best mark on paper with a hand stamp and ink pad.
To get the best mark from your stamp at this size we recommend slowing down. Do no rush your mark. Time and pressure is required to transfer the ink well from the rubber die of the stamp to the paper. It is imperative to ensure all areas of the stamp have pressure applied to the paper area. Using a flat plate type of stamp like our Custom Hand Stamp you will need to use another hand to press down all around the outside edge of the stamp to make sure every part of the stamp makes contact with the paper. Also make sure the surface being stamps on is absolutely flat. With a slightly soft surface. Sometimes around 10 pages of paper can give enough flex to obtain a higher quality mark on your paper.
