Badge Making Machine
Home » Resource Centre » Badge Making Machine

The office has a badge making machine available for hire. The machine is available for hire for one week at a time and must be booked ahead of time, on a first come first served basis.

We sell the required bits to make either badges, keyrings or fridge magnets. The machine makes 5.7cm diameter badges.

Hire costs include a refundable deposit, machine hire cost and purchase of the badge/keyring/magnet parts. Please contact our office to find out the current costs. 

We hire the machine out to both members of the ACT Playgroups Association as well as non-members. A discounted hire fee applies to members. Please note however, that we do not post/ship the machine and you would need to pick it up during opening hours from our office in Cook, ACT. It is therefore not possible to hire the machine to persons outside of the ACT and nearby surrounding area.
