Backup your BIP-39 Mnemonic phrase using SLIP-39 [0]
This saves the original entropy from which your BIP-39 phrase was generated, over several groups of multiple SLIP-39 mnemonics cards.
Later, recover enough cards from a few groups, recover your BIP-39, and recover your hardware wallet.
Much more reliable, and safer because an attacker must collect many independent mnemonics from groups they probably don’t know the members of.

EDIT: The SLIP-39 standard is probably the most accessible (and only?) usage of SSSS by "normals". As people find out how fragile and risky BIP-39 is, they'll want to secure their existing BIP-39 accounts, and they can do it using SLIP-39, which uses SSSS. You're welcome!
