If it's a manual machine, Benfal, I'd think long and hard about what you're getting in to.
I have a small hand-pulled button maker machine which stems from my days doing market stalls, and it is a pain in the arse.
It does its job well and simply enough, but fucking hell if it's not laboursome.
Even with my laser cutter these days simplifying the circle-cutting of the designs, it's all still a tedious process.
In your shoes I'd outsource at first, and see how your sales go on.
If it's worthwhile, great. If it's not, you're going to spend a long lonely time swearing at yourself as you manually cut, place, pull, shunt, pull, remove, pin, repeat.
- I know, but from what i've seen online, its kinda fast. Also if i outsource, that mean my mark up would be very small or i'll need to sell the badges at higherBen99
- ..price, wich is not good.Ben99
- I want to make small batch, not undustrial batch. Like, for exemple, someone asking for 200 badges would be my max amount i think.Ben99
- 200 badges would take approx 2-3 hours to make. 200 x 1,50$ = 300$ ... it's like 100$/hour paid. Could be an interesting sideline.Ben99
- 200 full colour badges £44 - hard to compete with those prices. Badgesforbands.commicrokorg
