Re: experience with making buttons

My team has the same button maker that rsisk linked to. We print sheets of 66 buttons on sticker paper on our plotter. Then we laser cut the buttons out on our laser cutter (if only it could do metal ). The buttons are then stuck to the blanks and pressed using the button maker. This process is probably overkill, but it is fast, and fun. We made a couple hundred per competition, and we ran out every time.
