Button Makers
We have a 3-inch and 1.25-inch button maker and a 1-inch magnet maker available. We provide UT themed designs and blank design for drawing on. You can download, design, and print custom designs. More information coming with links to templates and information about button supplies.
How-to:
Rotate the die so that it looks like the diagram. The left (shallow) is where you layer the pieces for the top of the button and the right (deeper) is for the pin back.
Build the top of your button on the left side:
Place button shell dome side up.
Add your cut graphic facing right side up.
Top with mylar.
Place pin back-side down on the right with the pin closest to you.
Rotate the die so the top of the button is under the press and pull the lever toward you.
Lift the lever and rotate the die so the button back is under the press and pull the lever.
Lift the lever and rotate the die to reveal your button.
