I misplaced this card and had to order a replacement. Then I later found the old card under my bed. Rather than have it lying around, I proceeded to dispose of it.
Usually, I drop unwanted cards in the cc slot of my crosscut shredder. Well, the card pretty much ruined my shredder. Clunks and makes weird noises now.
Tried scissors. Tried Xacto knife. Nope. Tried utility knife. Can't cut it, not even a little.
Stepped it up and tried diagonal cutting pliers (dikes) for metal. Not.
Then aviation snips. That had to work...not.
I then attacked it with large tree loppers. Somewhat worked, but could only cut small bits at a time and was probably gonna dull the loppers.
At this point I could see the card is a plastic coated sheet of metal. I gave up trying to cut it up into bits. Didn't try a hack saw, that would take too long.
Finally, I took it out in the back yard and blasted it with a MAPP gas torch to burn the plastic off the metal and destroy the PII printed on the card. It created a big black cloud of probably toxic smoke. Neighbors probably wondering wth was going on.
It was like a scene from the original Terminator movie. The metal plate is still pretty much intact.
Sheesh
