I love 33, very nice! I think this would match Nautilusfan's new acquisition very nicely
Hopefully #29 will also!!
33 wasn't up this morning. Door and button are going on a black wrinkle body so not sure about the white background?Apex BF Customs

I think u got the right one. [emoji6] my pictures don't always represent the colors entirely acurately.Hopefully #29 will also!!
It seems that my blue button is stuck in USPS hell, go figure.
Was wondering if you could do a white with pink flower to go with the mini I'm customizing for my girlfriend.

Wow package stuck in richmond for 3 days??? i have a couple pink flowers left. i got light and dark pink and which kind of glitter? i got silver, gold, mixed, green, teal, light blue, or none at all. maybe some streaks of color or glitter in the white?
Silver glitter would be good. The mini will be pink with a white door and a silver rm2.
Got my buttons today [emoji4] They are sweet! Thanks Roscoe. Now I got to figure out how to get them on one handed. LOL

Getting the current one off will probably be the real issue
Actually it came off pretty easy [emoji4] Can't get enough leverage behind the new ones to pop them on.

I was afraid of that...they are really tight. The resin stretches a little so they start out really tight but after a few on and offs they loosen up. If u can scrape the inside of the hole a bit with something abrasive or a sharp knife.Actually it came off pretty easy [emoji4] Can't get enough leverage behind the new ones to pop them on.

How were you able to get the existing one off one handed?Actually it came off pretty easy [emoji4] Can't get enough leverage behind the new ones to pop them on.

I had a bit of a time with #12, but found using the business end of a 1/16th drill bit running slowly around the inside and test fitting worked well. I was going to use a Dremel wrench to remove the other button like Roscoe suggested but discovered I had a computer wrench on my desk that fit perfectly. The deed is done.
Popped it off with a knife. It wasn't on very tight. It is one of the brass ones from REOs with a little piece of dental floss in the hole to hold it on.

Was thinking of trying that on the new button and drilling it out just a bit with a dremel. Afraid to do it left handed tho. Not very steady. LOL Don't want to ruin it. It may have to wait til I'm right handed again [emoji6]

I test fit all the buttons on my reo before sending them out but maybe my reo button is getting a bit worn. I can go a hair bigger on the drill bit but....during beta testing I found with that bigger size hole that the buttons started getting sloppy and had to add string so I opted to stay with the tighter fit. U guys let me know if you would rather have a bit larger hole.

They all just came in and got one of the red metallic buttons on one of the mods, but it was tight. My green button #25, I'll PM you on that one. Haven't put the other one on the other mod yet but I plan to test fit and scrape with a knife until it pops on so I don't damage it.

I would be afraid that if you made it any larger, the button would not stay on. Like others have said lightly running a knife around did the job perfectly and it fits nice and snug. Not likely to pop off in a pocket.
Yeah, I agree, except the metal ones, dunno about those. You can fit it to your Reo that way.
The brass button I got with my last Reo was too big and just barely hung on and spun when I wanted to lock it. Not sending it back for that. 2 sided 3m tape fixed that

Ok JetMac just got a brittle button from me. I have pulled down all the buttons that were made with that batch of resin. I believe he is only one that got one from that batch.
That bites, but thank you for being honest about it and working to make it right by pulling any others that might be that way.
Is there a place to see what you currently have in stock aside from this thread?
