The Model 150-MS button machine makes professional-quality 1-1/2" buttons!	AC-1 circle cutter

Our Model 150 MS is semi-automatic button machine. Made of solid-steel, it can produce up to 5 professional-quality 1-1/2" buttons in a single minute!

If you've ever struggled to make buttons using one of the inexpensive Badge-A-Minit button machines, you're going to be in for a very pleasant surprise the first time you make buttons with our Model 150 MS.

That's because the Model 150 MS is fast and easy to use!

To make a button, using the Model 150 MS, simply place your artwork and button-making supplies into the machine, pull the handle down twice and in a matter of seconds your perfectly formed button is finished!

Never again will you need to settle for buttons that have paper or plastic sticking out the sides, or make excuses to your customers why their buttons fell apart because they weren't crimped together tightly in the first place!



Creating artwork for your buttons
Just about any graphics application can be used to create the designs for your buttons, and you can print your designs using any ink jet or laser printer.

Special paper is NOT required... regular copy paper and ink jet paper will work just fine.

Make buttons anytime / anywhere
Since the Model 150 MS doesn't need electricity and is small enough to fit in a child's lunch box, you can take it along and make buttons wherever you happen to be.

Why button machines made of steel make better buttons than those made of plastic or aluminum
Unlike the inexpensive Badge-A-Minit machines that are made of plastic or a plastic-like compound, the Model 150 MS is made out of solid-steel.

And while it is obvious that steel is more durable than plastic or aluminum, button machines made of steel make better buttons.

Consider for a moment what must take place every time you make a button.

Quite simply, making a button involves the transfer of mechanical energy.

It begins as your arm pushes down on the handle of the button machine and then travels through the machine (and its dies or assembly rings) into the button parts, which are themselves made of steel. The button design and mylar covering must be pulled taut over the face of the button and the excess material of the design and mylar covering are tucked up underneath. The back of the button is then pressed into the front and the edge of the button MUST be tightly crimped if the button is to stay together.

Being made of solid-steel, the Model 150 MS is able to facilitate this transfer of mechanical energy far better than button machines made of plastic or aluminum.

This is why carpenters use hammers that are made of steel... not plastic or aluminum!

Buttons made with the Model 150 MS will have smooth, tightly crimped edges. They won't exhibit the poor-quality issues that are common to buttons made using plastic machines. Issues such as buttons having rough or serrated edges, or buttons that fall apart because the edges weren't tightly crimped)


Circle cutters
Since cutting the artwork for your buttons is an important part of the button-making process, a discussion about circle cutters will help you better understand the process of how buttons are made.

We currently offer two types of circle cutter... the AC-1 circle cutter and the Punch Cutter.

For most customers, I recommend the AC-1.

The AC-1 circle cutter does its cutting by means of a rotary blade that is safely housed inside the body of the cutter. The blade sits at the end of a cutting arm that is fully adjustable. It is this feature that allows the AC-1 to make the cuts for 1-inch buttons, all the way up to buttons measuring 3-1/2" inches in diameter.

To cut your artwork with the AC-1, simply place the metal cutting plate (that comes with the AC-1) on a table and place your artwork on top of the cutting plate. Position the AC-1 over your printed artwork, center it over your artwork, then push down and turn the handle to cut your artwork into a perfect circle.

The AC-1's rotary blade will stay sharper longer than any straight-edged cutting blade (such as the ones used in Badge-A-Minit's circle cutters). This allows you to make better cuts and cut thousands of design without having to change the blade.

It is also possible to re sharpen the AC-1's cutting blade. To re-sharpen it, simply remove the blade from its adjustment arm (it's held in place with a "C-clip") and run the edge of the blade over a whetstone, just as you would if you were sharpening a knife.

For customers who prefer not to resharpen their blades, replacement blades are only $5.00 each.

30-Day Money-back Guarantee
If you try the Model 150 MS button machine, I'm certain you are going to love it!

That why I offer customers the opportunity to try the Model 150 MS for a full 30-days, without risk or obligation. If after using it, you aren't completely satisfied, simply return it to us for a full and immediate refund (less shipping).

If you purchase a button machine from Badge-A-Minit and then decide to return it because it doesn't meet your expectations, they will charge you a 10% restocking fee.

Yet, at Dr. Don's Buttons, we don't charge restocking fees... and we don't need to.

That's because customers who give our button machines a try seldom ever return them!

And hopefully this will lead you to wonder... if Badge-A-Minit's button machines are so good, why do they charge a restocking fee when we don't?
