Woz pays a print shop to perforate them so that he can troll people by tearing perforated bills off a sheet and handing them out. If anyone asks where he got them, he says "Oh I have some friends at a print shop that do these up for me" and leaves out the part where they started as uncut sheets of legal currency.

I wouldn't advise doing this. Story goes he's been pulled into a room by the secret service for questioning.

Could just watch Mr woz explain it directly: https://youtu.be/LJ1TIYxm1vM?si=o2GHQaFirc9_alwe

I will point out since this site is full of professional pedants, Woz plainly enjoys the art and craft of exaggerating stories and not correcting interviewers :)
