Product Overview
2-1/4" Button Boy/EK Success PHOTO Punch, Machine and 1000 pin back button parts
We are pleased to announce a brand new machine and hand held punch.
It is the Tecre Brand Button Boy Photo Button Machine Model #BB225 and Button Boy/EK Success Hand Held Punch.
This machine is different as it works with our custom Hand Held Punch to deliver you perfect photo buttons every time. We recommend a 28lb bright white paper or slightly thicker for use with this punch. Not for use with normal copy paper - it is too thin and won't cut evenly.
On a standard button machine, your photo must wrap around the back of the button, and if it is printed on thick paper, you tend to have issues with buckling of the mylar on the edges. How does this new system work? The specialty size graphic punch cuts the paper to a diameter of 2.405. (A standard size punch cuts to 2.625”). The Model BB225 has an extra lip on the die that the smaller graphic fits into, as well as a lip for a normal graphic size and/or the mylar. When you make your button, the paper goes all the way to the very edge of your button, but does not get wrapped around with the mylar. It’s a perfect fit, and you will not see the silver edge of the button.
The model BB225 can also be used with a standard size graphic punch, as the graphic would sit in the upper lip of the die with the mylar. Images cut to 2.625” would wrap around to the back of the button like a standard machine’s buttons would.
However, any image cut with the BB#2405 graphic punch can only be used on the BB225 button machine. We cannot sell this punch alone as it will not work with a standard size machine.
Standard size 2-1/4” parts will work with this machine. BAM sized or chines made parts will NOT work with this machine.

This punch works wonderfully with a 28 lb bright white paper (that is the paper stock that we prefer for our own buttons), as well as photo paper. (Of course, photo paper may not work well with your machine). Not for use with normal copy paper - it is too thin and won't cut evenly.
