I may have mentioned that I was making “challenge coins” for some of the kids working at Oga’s cantina down at Galaxy’s Edge. I got the final design and started cranking them out in 1/8" fluorescent acrylic… (Managed to fit 67 to a sheet!)
I was thinking about making "Give a F " coins like this what size did you make the tokens and did you do both sides?
Since they’re transparent, I only did one side (reverse engraved on the back) and since I have a few challenge coins from my time in The Marines and they are all inch and three-quarters, that’s what I went with as well.
They’re gonna love them! Great job!
these look fantastic, great job, I wanna make some now, LOL
Looks great
Awesome! 
I’ve made a few myself, for my son and my grandkids. I used the same size and process.
That’s a lot of coins! I’m sure they’ll appreciate them.
They sent me 25 sheets - that’s 1,650 coins…
THAT’s a lot of coins…
So how does one package 330 coins (the first set of all five colors) for shipping?
Super cool!
Cool. And they could double as poker chips. Really nice.
These look great! That’s a lot of engraving!
Just as a test I figured I’d run a sheet without the protective paper on the “cut” side, since weeding is a pain.
Not only do all of the edges seem less crisp, and there’s SO much acrylic dust EVERYWHERE!
Weed the finished pieces by using something sticky like Gorilla tape, or my favorite, 3M Extra Sticky lint rollers, as a removal tool.
Thanks for the suggestion. That’s what I DO, but was figuring NOT having to weed 1,400 coins would be even easier…
(That being said, the kids I’m sending them to have already stocked up on gorilla tape…)
(BTW, Yoyo - Laugh while you CAN, monkey boy…)
They turned out great. And that’s a great tip about wrapping the tape around them. Not that I think I’ll ever need it, but you never know!
And here we are - Almost 2 months later. After 25 sheets of acrylic (5 sheets of each color) yielding 67 “coins” per sheet, today I packed the final 660 for shipment down to Florida. Summer heat and “cooling” delays were NOT part of my original plan, but little Friggin’ held on and cranked out a whopping 1,675 (not counting prototypes and test prints, “wooden nickels” and the odd side-project) challenge coins.
Now to figure out a use for 25 sheets of holes…
Maybe a CONNECT BILLIONS?
