    Corect button position when using.
    press on the flat part of the button as in the photo, the end with the hole enters the workpiece first

    use the steel we recommend for our buttons, it is important to get the right result.
    also you can not use stainless steel, it is very hard and the results will not be CORRECT
    👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇
    Recommended steel grades for working with a button;
    Germany( DIN,WNr) 1.7223,41CrMo4;
    France( AFNOR) 42CD4TS ;
    Spain( UNE) 42CrMo4;

    Another important point.
    Before using steel, it needs to be annealed.
    To do this, heat the workpiece to a bright red color and let it cool just in the air.
    this will guarantee the softness of the steel and a good result.
    this procedure is required.
    Before work buttons
    We use a lot of lubricant.
    you can use graphite automotive grease.
    We press the button with a press, you can adapt a car jack who does not have a press 😉
    Below is a link to an example of how this is done.
    This video uses our button.
