Making Mirror-back Button Sets
with the Model 225 or Model 300 SX
Shown below is a step-by-step
guide to make mirror-back button sets with our Model 225 or Model
300 SX button machines.
When making mirror-back buttons
you will have 3 metal parts, plus the mirror and mylar disc (the
plastic covering). The metal parts, which are shown below are
the shell (the front of your button), the collet ( a thin metal
retainer which holds the mirror in place), and the shim that
will act as a spring and keep the mirror from rattling once the
button has been made.

The first step in making a
mirror-back button is to insert the shell, your cut artwork and
the mylar disc into the appropriate die on your button machine,
as shown in the photo below.
In step 2, which is shown below,
you rotate the die assembly on your Model 225 or Model 300 SX
and insert the collet into the other die so that the sharp edge
faces up.
Now take your mirror and place
it into the collet, so that the reflective side faces down.

In step 4 of the process, take
the thin metal shim and hold it between your thumb and forefinger
of both hands, as shown below.

Then bend the shim downward
so it resembles a flattened pup tent, as shown in the photo below.

Next, take the shim you just
bent and place it on top of the mirror you already placed into
the die of the Model 225 or 300 SX. Once the shim is in place,
pull the handle of your button machine down.

Then pull the handle up, rotate
the die assembly so the mirror part is under the pressing handle,
pull the handle down, pull it back up and your finished mirror-back
button should look like the one shown in the photo below.
That's all there is to it!
