Below are some frequently asked questions for this button maker
Question 1: "Why are my buttons coming apart" or "Why is there mylar not tucked in on the side of my button?"
Answer:
1:Make sure there are no problems with the installation. If something goes wrong with the installation, all subsequent steps will fail.
2: One of the most common causes is that your paper is too thick or too thin. We recommend using 24-28 pound copier paper.
3:wrong circle graphics. Your graphic has to be cut exactly and even. It should not be bigger than the mylar and the edges need to be nice and even.
4:You need to push the handle down with a bit of force in the last press. It is best to hold the handle tightly with your hands when pressing for the last time so that the upper and lower molds can be tightly combined with each other.
5:The top die may become loose after a long time of use. If the mold is loose, that's maybe the cause you failed pressing. Because the vertical force between the upper and lower molds cannot be applied when pressing. Tighten with an L wrench before installing the upper mold if it needs(Do not over-tighten, make sure the upper die can rotate properly)
6. Don't forget to put the metal pin that holds the sliding mold fixing. If there is no metal pin, the force of the upper and lower molds will not be uniform, which will cause the button to unsealed. Metal sheaths are easy to lose, so we've included a few extras for emergencies
7. Only put one piece of paper and mylar at a time, too thick material can cause jamming and seal failure. Since papers or mylars are easy to stick together, you may not notice how many layers are there when putting
Question 2：Why is my metal cap stuck inside the mold and won't seal after the last press?
Answer:
1. Please use an intact metal cover, not deformed. Do not reuse failed metal cover.
2.When the pinback button is put into the mold, the up and downside are wrong. The correct button is with the pin side down
3. if the metal cap stuck inside the top mold, press again to let it off
