Abstract: A stamping tool may include a base and a cover. The cover is removably affixed to the base through a hinging assembly. The base can include a first base hinge and a second base hinge substantially perpendicular to the first base hinge. The base hinges can include hinge sections. The hinge sections can include a first wall and a second wall that can be biased to define a cavity that is accessible through a channel between the first wall and the second wall. Hinge sections can be separated by one or more receptacles. The cover can include one or more hinge bars corresponding to the hinge sections on the base. The hinge bars can have an unequal aspect ratio allowing for easy insertion and removal of the cover. The cover can also include one or more protrusions separating the hinge bars. These protrusions correspond to the receptacles on the base.

Abstract: A two-sided stamp and method of using and manufacturing the same. The two-sided stamp comprises a first stamping surface and a second stamping surface. The first stamping surface is capable of transferring a quantity of ink from an ink source to an article to be stamped. The first stamping surface can also include one or more openings. The second stamping surface is likewise capable of transferring a quantity of ink from an ink source to an article to be stamped. The second stamping surface can also include one or more openings. The openings in the first flat surface and the openings in the second flat surface can be continuous and extend between the first stamping surface and the second stamping surface.

Abstract: The stamp comprises a base and a stamping surface. The stamping surface includes one or more singularities; one or more conjoined singularities; and one or more fused singularity sections all of substantially uniform height. The singularities can be protrusions separated by one or more gaps. The conjoined singularities can include one or more connections between them, wherein the connections are substantially the same height as the stamping surface and can be part of the stamping surface. A method of manufacturing an improved stamp is also disclosed.

Abstract: A scoring tool comprising a base with a first edge and a second edge defining a recess; and one or more marker recesses. There is a pad capable of removably fitting into the defined recess and having one or more scoring guide lines. One or more markers having a locking mechanism capable of coupling with the marker recesses is included as is a pen assembly, capable of being removably coupled to the base and having one or more scoring tips. The scoring tool can include one or more marker guides on the first edge of the base, wherein the marker guide is a notch. The markers can include a protrusion capable of resting in the marker guide thereby securing the marker in place. The marker recess can be a hole in the base. The locking mechanism can be a retractable protrusion capable of coupling with the marker recesses.
