I have a guest friend interested in using the button maker for a one-off run. Would somebody mind helping her for free or a small gratuity? Or should I be pointing her to the sign-up page?
What brand of button making machine do we have?
The brand is ‘American Button Machines’. If you’re trained on it you can make them for her no problem.They are very easy to use. Unfortunately there aren’t any classes for it posted right now.

A one-off run of 1 button? 10? 10,000?
We are much better suited to handle the first two than the last.
If the former, you could likely get some ad hoc training and make them for her while she watched. I know @talkers is knowledgeable and often at the space.
Training shouldn’t take more than perhaps 10 minutes. Reading through this page ahead of time would likely knock that time down to two minutes (e.g. “the machine is here, the supplies are there, please pay for what you use”).

Unless I’m mistaken the friend will need to sign up and be a member to use the tool on their own. I don’t mind helping but how many buttons are we talking about?

We have the 1", 1.5", and 2.25" presses. Buttons can be ordered from American as Amanda says, and from buttonboy.com

Yep. ButtonBoy dot com is a domain name squatter site.
Whew, that could have been bad…
