These are buttons with a special system in place to prevent holes on the top for securing them into your shirt. Instead these have a string retention curve which allows these to have a clean front for cool patterns.
Each Button in this series is 3mm tall and approximately 20mm in diameter.
These should be printed upside down with the hexagons/triangles facing the build plate and it should be printed at .15mm layer height.
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Select the Button you want to use. In this Case I am showing the Hexagon pattern button that you can find on my page.
- Punch 2 holes in the cloth you are attaching this to that are the same distance apart as the ones on your button. Regardless of the button chosen it should be about 1cm apart. KEEP ORIENTATION IN MIND!!! You need to make sure if the hole your button goes into is horizontal that your button holes are also horizontal.
- Take the needle and thread the string through the hole. I did not find the need to tie a knot but you may.
- Sew the button by looping the thread between the four holes. Keep the string tag ends on the same side of the cloth so you can tie them.
- When you satisfied that you have enough loops, simply do an overhand knot (or two… or three :-]) to secure it.
- CONGRATULATIONS!!! YOU HAVE INSTALLED YOUR BUTTON!!! Please post a make if you like this model!
