Option 4: JUST the Hand Press

No kit, just the Tecre Model #100 hand press.

Option 5: JUST the Graphic Punch

No kit, just Tecre Model #1313 Graphic Punch.

Option 6: JUST the Crimp Die Adapter

Crimp die adapters are required for making medallion buttons. Simply place the adapter in the crimp (bottom) die before inserting the black plastic medallion back and take it out before inserting collets when you want to continue making regular lock pin buttons. Used with model # 100 1" button makers only.

Common Uses

1" buttons are a very popular for band buttons and other music related events, festivals, and organizations. They are a great marketing tool for emerging artists and are especially loved by (but not limited to!) kids, teens, and young adults.

The compact size makes them fashionable (not too bulky) and easy to sell in collections.

Simple designs with no more than 1-3 words fit best on this size. If you need more design space on a small button, you may want to consider buying a 1.25" machine instead.
