If that wasn�t big enough, this ultimate roller machine cuts everything from cardstock to fabric and many things in between. Now that�s a big deal.

Included with the Big Shot are a pair of Standard Cutting Pads and the Multipurpose Platform, which makes all Sizzix components compatible with the Big Shot Machine and even works with other brands' dies and embossing tools!

I was able to use the Big Shot Express just this week at ScrapFest sponsored by Archivers in the Mall of America. It works so slick. No more cranking. Julianna taught workshops and also had a make-n-take using the machines.

Thanks for your response. I have not done much with mine since I Purchased the Big shot mainly because I am not able to find a wide choice of dies. Do you have any great sources?
