Re: Button Giveaways
We make our own buttons. We have a badg-a-minit press and buy our supplies from fabutton.com. They sell the badg-a-minit parts mush cheaper than I found elsewhere.
As the build season winds down, it gives the kids something to do, since not everyone can be working on the robot during the last week. We usually buy enough to make 2500, we make a 1000 before our first regional, then make more between regionals. If we qualify for champs we make the rest. Whatever is leftover we use as giveaways at demos and fundraisers.
