Yes, I well remember them falling to pieces when I made a Dorset button years ago at a Brownie Day. I imagine it was a crosswheel http://www.dorsetbuttons.co.uk . For some history, see this page - <http://tinyurl>http://tinyurl.com/35ehg5

Thank you, Janette - then there could be a point at which if the button is dropped, the spokes could unwind before they were backstitched together? The spokes are not sewn into the buttonhole stitches, but just wrapped around the whole ring? In the book the stitches do unwind when a button is dropped.
