2x3 inch ProMaker Photo Button Machine

I struggled for the first few weeks of me owning this machine to get everything to crimp properly. I thought I could cheap out and cut the designs out by hand but very quickly found out i NEEDED the punch press. Afterward, I still had some crimping issues that were immediately fixed by applying AGK Door Ease stick lubricant to the die where you place the backing. The 2x3 machines are always going to be a little more finicky no matter who makes or sells them, and minor bubbling may occur no matter how hard you try, but this machine is still fantastic and allows me to sell a more expensive product for my business when compared to the selling price of a 1.5" round button, and will pay itself off pretty quick even with the higher price. Haven't had any complaints about the product from any customers yet either, so my overanalyzing of each button I make is likely unnoticeable to someone who doesn't stare at buttons all day. I would absolutely recommend this machine to others if they purchase the die cutter and a lubricant stick!! Lots of rewards points allowed me to snag a 1" machine for almost free was also a HUGE benefit :)
