Thank you. I'd like to make bobeche (wax cups) out of them. I guess
bending is what I'd want to do anyway. Thanks.

It isn't cupping, though, it's bending.

See the photo at the top of this page:

The slug ends up shaped just like the punch (bottom part), while the
chassis ends up flat like the die (top part).

You want to make something like this?
