If they're not compatible, I'm kind of SOL...but if anyone can tell me they WON'T be compatible, I need to buy some compatible mirror parts ASAP in addition to the TECRE ones i purchased and will not be able to return. FYI I did see this post http://ask.metafilter.com/19714/Badger-badger-badger and followed all links and couldn't find the info I wanted. Any advice would be appreciated. post:ask.metafilter.com,2008:site.80298 Sun, 06 Jan 2008 09:03:14 -0800 Soulbee crafts http://ask.metafilter.com/80298/Will-properly-sized-TECRE-buttonmirror-parts-work-on-a-BadgeaMinit-hand-press#1191534 According to <a href="http://buttonmakers.net">buttonmakers.net</a>, the 2 1/4 BAM button makers actually have a slightly larger die (2 5/16&quot;) than the 2 1/4&quot; tecre model, so the tecre button parts won't work correctly for it. comment:ask.metafilter.com,2008:site.80298-1191534 Sun, 06 Jan 2008 17:16:52 -0800 logic vs love
