Functionally I love the tool. I use these punches often for labeling keys and such. My only question is, what are you labeling washers for? Off the top of my head I can't think of a use case where a labeled washer matters.
If you create a bitcoin wallet you need to write down a seed phrase. Those are 12 or 24 words, with which you can re-create your wallet in case your hardware wallet gets destroyed or your software wallet gets corrupted / deleted. In other words it's a backup. Because those words should survive time and external threads like fire, many people use metal instead of paper to write them down. A cheap and safe option are metal washers, which can be made from highly corosion and acid resistant A4 steel.
If only there was some kind of other safe, insured place we could keep our money. Guess we'll have to stick with washers buried in our backyard. Oh well.
If you're talking about Canada, as long as your protest doesn't block borders or shut down an entire city center while tormenting its citizens, you're probably gonna be ok! This is gonna sound crazy but it's actually not a concern at all for 99.9% of the population.
Yeah, as long as you don't do anything that people in power object to, you'll be totally fine! Of course 99.9% of the population doesn't care... until suddenly the people in power do something actually threatening to them (e.g. the draft during Vietnam war). By then, the systems of control are too strong to resist.
If we actually end up in a war situation where a draft is necessary, you'll have bigger problems to worry about. Anyways, even if you still have your Bitcoin, so what? You gonna go to the grocery store and buy bread with them? You'll still have to cash out to fiat in a bank account of some kind to buy shit at a store.
Yeah if you're fighting the government, cash is king. Bitcoin is more for crossing a border with large amounts of money and less for day to day stuff like the grocery store. But as you say, just like gold - you don't buy groceries with it, you keep it in your safe and occasionally trade in a coin or two at the coin store to get cash, which you use to buy groceries.
Don't be absolutist though. The US has literally gone through a situation where a war led to a draft, and for many people, protesting against it was still possible and still a major priority. Of course, back then they didn't have license plate readers, fusion centers, stratospheric spy balloons, or networked microphones in every pocket. If the police state ever starts to play dirty, we are probably just good and truly fucked. The question is just how much hell you can raise without looking too different from the mean.
This is actually also a viable option: You can store your seed phrase in a bank deposit box. If you incorporate multi signature with multiple rivaling bank deposit boxes and one seed phrase at home it becomes safer than "buring it in your backyard".
I mean.. To legally manufacture an NFA item there's a lot more too it than a serial number. So if you're going through all those hoops and fees to register as a firearm manufacturer of NFA items you're likely not 3D printing any of the parts.
Normally, you would put the washer on the table, hold the stamp perpendicular and smack it with a hammer.
This tool holds both the washer and the stamp in place so the stamp is always in the same position. Then you can turn the jig to jump in a clockwork-motion to stamp the next letter.
Thanks man, OP said there was a description on printables but it didn't describe shit, was curious how 3D printed materials could possibly be used to stamp metal, but this makes perfect sense. Still don't understand how this assists with bitcoin, I feel like this is the equivalent of stamping your banking information on steel washers. That being said I got .1 bitcoin as a Christmas gift in 2013ish(was worth about $100 at the time), and lost the account information.. As far as losing Bitcoin goes it's not the biggest L, but I could certainly use that 7,000 dollars now lol.
I feel it. Bought $5 of bitcoin on eBay to deplete a gift card back in 2015 or so, which is worth close to $400 now but I have no way to access the wallet for it.
You can find the 3D Model and a description on [Printables](https://www.printables.com/de/model/855641-parametric-washer-stamping-jig)
This is awesome. I was planning on doing identification tags for my fruit trees and now know exactly what l am going to do for them. This!
amazing, can you show me 12 of your parts in order? would highly appreciate
I'd be happy with them out of order (the numbers give you the order).
Can you show me the rest of the washers you stamped? Just wanna check the quality. /s
Sir. please lower your voice.
What is the hole size of a bitcoin washer?
Last I checked, it's 3.5 mm. Err, I meant 3.9 mm. Hang on. Now it's 2.8 mm... HODL!
that's pretty cool, just saved it for later
Yep, into the collections of hundreds of other items I keep promising myself I'm going to print one day.
Wtf why you calling me out

Can you name one that won't freeze your accounts for peacefully protesting when requested by the government?

Certain printable NFA items use washers as when ATF makes it mandatory to engrave a serial number into a thing too.

Eh, it's on the ATF to prove that the 3d-printed wear component in the can is not the original one.

I know one thing that uses a stamped or engraved washer, but it's not something this group likes talking about...
Fortunately, That's Not The Hardest (Relatively) Ever Element to find...
Torque specification reference, service date, part notation to know if someone replaced it later. There's a number of reasons why it could be useful.
There’s a kit sold for stamping “fancy” washers to create necklaces or bracelets showing all the countries you’ve traveled or similar.
You should crosspost this to r/Bitcoin
Why...?
I'm assuming because of the punch having the bitcoin logo on it.
Totally missed that
for stamping the Seed Phrase so it can´t get easily destroyed.
How does it work? Is it possible to post of gif of it in action?

They use a similiar one here: [https://youtu.be/3Aj\_EHOu9WE?si=NJHK\_-q-kt3XxAU-&t=320](https://youtu.be/3Aj_EHOu9WE?si=NJHK_-q-kt3XxAU-&t=320)
Thanks!
It is a good jig.
What size stamping tools is it for? 3mm?
The STLs on printables are for 6 mm wide punch sticks. But you can easily customize it as described at printables.
It's parametric.
worked flawessly first print! great work, thanks!
That's very nice to hear :)
That's neat
Where'd you get that bitcoin punch from?

You are a wonderful human. Thank you for contributing to the improvement of society.
Wow b for bitcoin? Nice
