Title: Question on button machines.
Post by: MinUph on July 11, 2010, 01:27:44 pm
This is a Handy Jr. I have never seen one like this and don't know if it is the same as the models that have the exposed spring. I wonder if any of you may have seen this model and if the regular dies will fit this model?
  Thanks.

It's hard to tell from the picture how much clearance there is. I don't see a hole for the bottom die to fit into. Is that just a plate laying on top of the hole? If there IS a hole, and enough clearance for the dies, I don't see why it wouldn't work.

Yea the hole is there. That is just the pad on there now. Other pics show it removed. I have found some info on this and asking about it to the person selling it.
