So those are wooden or leather discs? And what is the leather exactly?

Spread hot hide on the rough side of the large thin disc, center it over a hole with glue side up, place a small thick disc (rough side up) on the glue, and push it down into the hole. When the glue has dried, eject the button and trim the edges.
