I made a discordian wax seal stamp:

What I did is make an original image out of a polymer clay (you know, the "clay" that becomes hard by itself, without needing a high temperature oven). This is a positive image, so the same as the final seal. I attached this to some beeswax and put it in a container:

Then I filled the container with plaster and let it dry:

When I had done this, I put the cast in the oven and melted out the beeswax. I filled the hollow with molten lead, and hammered off all the plaster. After a little bit of finishing with a dremel, this is the result:

Oh, apparently it's just called "Dremel" in Dutch as well. I'll ask for that in the hardware store then :)

Though I suppose I could also just get a set of attachment thingies for my drill and it'd do the same thing, right?

I think dremels turn significantly faster. A quick google seems to indicate normal drills go up to about 1000 rpm, and dremels go up to 30000.
DREMELS DREMELS EN NOG EENS DREMELS!!! :argh!:
You sir, are a badass.
As soon as I find the box of my crap with your correspondence in it, I'm going to write you another letter.
That is very clever and cool!
