Would anyone purchase a kit for stamping your seed phrase into titanium washers with a titanium nut and bolt to match, from me, specifically?

I've finally vetted some reliable enough sources from China for High-quality and consistently sized hardware and for reasonable markup for my time, am considering selling simple kits of just hardware to start, but will eventually include 3DP stamping jigs and the punch sets if the interest is there.

Here's an example of what I could offer:



The bolt would match the length more closely. I got extra long ones to see if the threads were consistent.

Most Titanium washers you find from China are like the example on the right: punched from sheet with rough edges and are not exactly flat or pleasant to handle. Some are downright sharp. The washer on the left is machined very well. The edges are chamfered:



The nuts are flanged and very well machined:



The bolts are also very well machined, though I am still trying to source bolts with flange heads in the correct size and lengths:



Why titanium?

It's cool. 😎

It has a higher temperature resistance than steel or stainless.

It is a non-ferrous metal that is MUCH harder to detect with simple "metal detectors."

It is much lighter than any steel or stainless steel.

It is even more corrosion resistant than most stainless steels, even 316 stainless.

So... Anyone interested?

Heck, if anyone wanted even more exotic materials and could foot the bill, I have access to a lathe and mill and could do crazy stuff like monel, Inconel, or hastalloy, too.
