Closed, open, mini box inside…

Who doesn't love buttons?! I think they are super fun to make and wear. I had all the part for this machine stacked away in a plastic box collecting dust because the assembly was a drag. I wanted to flip it out and have it functional in seconds. Voila! The Portable Button Machine was born.

This specific machine is only churning out 2.5mm buttons, they are small but makes room for more. The limited space for words and graphics are a welcome creative challenge.

Portable Button Machine:

The handle sticks out so you can carry the box.
Flipping out the first wall gives you a glass plate for cutting the graphics.
The left hides a second box with all the button parts.
Rubber feet makes it stable and easy to use.
