    What ABM Parts will work with Badge A Minit?
    I have just found this websight a few days ago and wish I had found it much sooner!
    How many different ABM button parts will work in the Badge A Minit system?
    Will the key chain and mirror back parts work? How is the build quality? The crimp? is the mirror tight or loose? What is your reject rate? I am at 40% reject rate with my Badge A Minit system. My reject rate with pin backs in 3″ and 2 1/4″ are about 2%.

    Really looking forward to learning from everyone and looking forward to doing bussiness with American Button Machines.

    Badge A Minut
    BAM makes some good pro machines, the ones with the dies, not the hobby machines with the rings.
    but 2 things I don’t like about BAM. 1. they stamp thier parts with thier contact info. good for a hobby,
    but not so good for a business. 2. thier cut-a-circles, these drive me nuts. they move on the paper,
    so you get a lot of spiral cuts or oblong cuts. which makes the art off center. I have tried everything,
    they told me but nothing works 100% of the time. and the blades dull fast. and they don’t sell punches,
    I am going to have to save and look for some BAM sized paper punches.
    it’s frustrating. they should rename the line, Badger Minute, because thats how you feel after playing with these.

    Does anyone use the advanced Badgeaminit model button machine?
    the ones with the dies and not the removable rings. I read the badgeaminit manual and all I get is a partial crimped mess. good thing I bought extra materials to practice with. man, if the pro model is so much fun I hate to see what the “ring” people are going thou.
