The Details

The UnMinted Tracing Jigs are designed to make preparing your coin cuttings an easier start.

Simply place the coin into the straight edge side pocket of the 3D printed jig to draw a quick center line (optional, but they are there if you want the alignment), then move the coin over to the main pocket to align and trace the shapes onto your coins.

Please Note: For the Coin Sphere Puzzles, you’ll need 3 coins, and each will have different cut-outs. I’ve designed these to work best with an Ultra Fine-Point Sharpie® held vertically when marking your cuttings – each of the slots are widened by ½ the diameter of the Sharpie®, so once marked, the goal is to cut as close to that outer edge of your markings as possible. Once cut, I use a mix of files / strips of sandpaper to clean up the edges and adjust as needed. For a snug fit when the coins are assembled, the width of the resulting slots should be close to the thickness of the coin you’re working with.
