Yeah like. I did google. I wanna know if anybody has actually used something.

I do seem to be circling back to dissolving a card in acetone, yeah.

I’m seeing now that there are standalone RFID chips that are already loose. How hard would it be to clone the card to one of those and do I need a chip with a specific length of antenna or other specific quality?

Yes the etsy shops are why she wants one but I feel like I could make one that’s much more elegant. She does not have an apple watch or the means to purchase one. We also both share an interest in esoteric spiritual practices and a wooden implement would be more appropriate than plastic.

I felt like if I could just Frankenstein the visible part of a card chip into a much smaller balsa wood sandwich on the end of a wooden stick (plus decorations obvs) or into a pocket drilled into something like this for $20 and most of that being the card.

How does one get the antenna out too (a subsequent google search indicates that I would still need the surface area of a card which makes this less doable, which is why I asked in the first place, ty).

…although now I’m wondering how hard it would be to buy an RFID chip that’s more appropriately shaped or that has a loose antenna I can string up or down a wrapped handle and clone the gift card.
