Question Question - Big Shot & Nestabilities
I want to start using the nestabilities, but don't have a machine myself. I had put the cuttlebug on my christmas wish list, but now I'm thinking I should get the Big Shot instead. Especially if there are going to be dies that match stamp sets! woohoo!
Anyway, can you use the nestabilities with the big shot? I'd like to condense my punch collection and take up less space.
thanks!

Yes the Nesties will work. I believe most if not all other dies on the market will work in the Big Shot.

I found a compatability guide on the Spellbinders site for all die cutting machines. It tells you how to use the dies in different machines.

I have found that the sizzix and the cuttlebug both cut with the nestabilities fun....however....I have had issues with the embossing. Does anyone know if the embossing feature on the Big Shot works any better? I was told by a Spellbinders "guru" that because the Wizard is all metal, that it has more even pressure to achieve a nice crisp emboss. Does anyone know if the Big Shot has metal rollers? Any help would be appreciated, as I too am debating between the two. Thanks!

I don't know if the embossing would work well with the big shot, but would like to know

Which embossing? With the nesties or the cuttlebug embossing folders? Either one is great with the Big Shot. I bought mine just for that purpose.
