Product Overview
BADGE A MINIT SIZE - THIS IS NOT A STANDARD USA SIZE 2-1/4" IT IS ACTUALLY 2-3/8". THIS WILL WORK WITH OUR BAM SIZED PARTS.
Tecre Model #275 Fabric Button Maker Machine
This listing is for a Tecre 2 3/8" BAM button maker machine that has been adjusted by Tecre to allow for use with fabric.
This machine will work with basic cotton fabric, as well as some slightly thicker fabric like canvas or flannel. Thicker fabrics probably won't work with it.
If you plan on using a thick fabric, and want us to test the fabric out on our in-store machine, you can mail us 1 sq ft (or so) of fabric to test.
You can also use this machine for making normal paper buttons.
You can make your fabric buttons with or without the mylar, but we think most people make them without the mylar.

This is a brand new machine and it is ready to be shipped. Your machine will come with a sample pack of approximately 25 complete pin back button parts (fronts, backs, safety pins & mylars) and a factory warranty.
This is NOT a Standard USA size 2.25" Machine, and STANDARD size parts will not work on it.
With this machine, you can make pin back buttons, pocket mirrors and magnets with our parts. Please check out our 2-3/8" section for these parts.
To cut your fabric, you will need a rotary style cutter. Hand held punches will not work with this, and the graphic punch in this size most likely won't work with the fabric. Your cutter will need to cut to 2.75".
We do give you a metal plate when you purchase a rotary cutter from us, but if you use a self healing cutting mat when cutting fabric, it will be more gentle on your fabric edges, and you will have less issues when making your buttons. (Sometimes the process of cutting the fabric may stretch it out a little bit, and you end up with a little 'tail' sticking out of the edge of the completed button. If that happens, you can just take some small scissors and cut that part of the fabric off).
Orders placed on holidays or weekends will be shipped the next business day.
Feel free to contact us with any questions - we love to help you get started making buttons and extra income!
