So I know these are meant to be bent into bracelet cuffs but they are so handy as is. I find myself reaching for these for all sorts of projects where I need something thin, strong, and straight to help align small pieces. I've hot glued them to the tops of 3D printed elements to keep them correctly orientated while I make molds or apply permanent adhesive and the hot glue pops right off afterwards. Eventually I'll get around to actually etching them to make bracelets but for now they are coming in super handy as a general crafting tool.

Nicely finished, responds well to laser engraving, but too small for an average-size male wrist

These cuffs are great. They engrave on my 55W laser really well creating a nice contrast between the under layer and the anodizing. They are thicker than others that I have used, which makes them harder to bend into shape but easier to keep in shape. So far my has not dented or bent and I am really hard on jewelry. It has been banged and smashed under boxes and not bent out of shape.

These bands are substantially thick, not easy to bend by hand. They etch nicely with my 10-watt laser quite well. I noticed crackling noises when bending a gentile curve into them, sounded more like paint than anodized surface. I did see definite cracks that I have not observed after bending other anodized products.

These bracelet blanks are nice. I like the rounded edges, and they're slightly thicker than most bracelet blanks, so they don't easily bend out of shape once you have stamped and shaped them. But they are just *slightly* wider than 3/8", so they don't fit into my ImpressArt Bracelet Stamp Straight Jig, which was disappointing. (I prefer to use my jig when I can so that the letters end up in a nice, straight line on the finished bracelet. That wasn't an option here, because these were maybe 1/32 of an inch wider than they said they are--not big enough to notice unless you're trying to fit them into a 3/8" jig.) Still, these blanks stamp up nicely, and they bend beautifully with my bracelet bending pliers, without being soft enough to easily bend by hand--which makes it easy to shape them to fit and ensure that they won't accidentally warp into a different size. I'd probably get them again... though I still wish they were true to the size advertised.

These might be anodized but after laser engraving, the aluminum metal is gray, not shiny silver like it should be. Looks like lead not aluminum.

These bracelets are perfect for laser engraving. I wasn't paying attention when I ordered them and thought they were slap-bracelets. Only when they arrived did I noticed that isn't the case, and you need a tool to curve them properly.Once I purchased one I was finally able to use them. These make great gifts, and even more, they work perfectly for laser engraving due to their color.

These are packaged well, with each individually wrapped. This was my first time making metal cuff bracelets, so my experience is limited. I felt the shape wasn't right and way too small for most adults. I have a 6" wrist and it was tight on me. My 6 year old could wear it though.I didn't try metal stamping, but it should work fine. I used the "Beadsmith EZ-Bender" to shape the bracelet, which should be a standard tool. Perhaps the bending pliers will make a nicer shape, I tried to smooth the center a bit by hand but was unable to get a nice shape. Or if you have a wrist mandrel, that should work, too. As you see, it makes a "C" shape, but you want it more flat in the middle and curled on ends. And I think the curl is the wrong shape, too. I will have to do more research to see what length I should be using for the tool I bought. Or if there is a recommended tool for shaping these blanks. They are a very nice quality, no burrs and well enameled feeling.I will try again, but here are my results, I tried twice with the same outcome. Skinny bracelets. I may use for polymer clay cores. I will have to see if it will have nice results.
