This is even better. You don't have to buy any equipment. If you are descibing hand or what used to be called wooden stamps.
MM can supply them as well as Trodat. You raster the rubber dies on the laser, the same as for the self inkers.
The wood (actually plastic) mounts come in 18 inch strips (and different widths) which you then cut to size. They have an adhesive mount the same as the self inkers. Then drill a hole for the handle and glue it in. Index the image and then you are done. I use a chop saw and a small drill press for this.
Decorative stamps can be produced much cheaper. They only require a flat piece of wood (preferably maple).

Shari,
You may want to consider outsourcing this job while you do some additional resource. Here is a company that does great work and offers free shipping.
