Bonjour, c'est un métal très dur. Vous allez avoir beaucoup de mal à avoir une marque en le faisant à la main. Je ne vous le conseille pas forcément.

Bonjour,

L\'acier inox est très dur, peu malléable. Je ne pense pas que ces poinçons soient compatibles. Ils ne marqueront pas assez le métal.

Cordialement,

vous avez oublié le coup de marteau, non ?
plus sérieusement, ne peux t-on pas attacher les lettres ensemble du mot choisi (avec de l\'adhésif) pour que l\'écartement entre les lettres soit bien identique ?
merci pour vos lumières

Merci pour votre remarque. Vous pouvez essayer de les lier ensemble avec de l\'adhésif pour que les lettres soient parfaitement alignées.
