Default Cuttle bug question

Can you use the Sizzix BIGZ dies with the cuttle bug?

I am new to die cutting machines! Thanks so much for the input.

I can't answer for all of them, but I have the Heart & Locket BIGZ die, and it works. The trick is to measure it across to see if it will fit through the space in your Cuttlebug. (I can't remember exactly how big that is - somewhere around 6".) And remember that you can turn a die sideways if you need to in order to get it to fit!

Yes you can, but the Big Shot is so much nicer that a Cuttlebug!!

Thanks so much! I got the Cuttlebug for free so I hate to spend the money on the Big Shot.

Check out 'Cat's cuttlebug sandwich stacks', search 214770, this tells you how to sandwich several different companies dies. Printable file. Have fun.
