Our take on the 2-1/4” Round Button Machine Hand Press (BM-225)

The Tecre Model 225 is a hand-press button maker for 2-1/4 inch round buttons. It is built entirely from metal with no plastic parts, weighs about 10 lbs and carries a one-year manufacturer warranty. It presses pin backs, collet backs, prong backs, bottle openers, mirrors, bulldog clips, magnets and keychains, so one machine covers a range of small products. It is sold as the press alone, so buyers supply their own 2-1/4 inch button supplies. It suits crafters and small sellers who want a durable manual press; buyers who want a ready-to-use starter kit should look at bundled machines instead.
