Yup, the SU tins are too big for the depression in the platform AND the lid is attached. I'm going to work on a few alternatives. I often use small shape dies without the M&S platform, so there's some wiggle room there.
ETA I just checked and the lids to the SU tins can be taken off pretty easily. They're not crimped on or anything, so it can be done without ruining the tin.
There's a thin piece of metal that needs to be slid/pushed back out of its groove. (It'll stay in the lid if you don't pull it all the way out.) The front & back pieces of the box will then come apart.
Send the lid through the BS/BK using just the M&S shape die (no platform). Fiddle with sandwiches* until you find one that works.
Put the lid on the bottom and slide the thin piece of metal back into place.
* Here's the sandwich I use in my Big Kick:
Sizzix Texturz Impression Pad from the Texturz Kit (the hard plate, not the silicone rubber)
Sizzix Cutting Pad
M&S die face up
cardstock to be cut
Sizzix Cutting Pad
Since it's the tin lid and not cardstock being sent through, the sandwich may have to be altered.
