Now I don't have the links right now but there isn't really a big difference (at least in my experience). One company makes the backs without their number on the back but for FIRST buttons, who cares? The size is done by diameter. I'm not sure of the model we use now but do not get
this button maker. I'd say 1 in 10 buttons fell apart unless the person who was making them knew what they were doing (and that namely was pushing really hard and getting it lined up perfect). And even if you did it well a fair few still fell apart. And we had parents and students who slaved at least 10 hours making these buttons.
