So I've come across the Alto-cut that is priced at $75.....do you consider that a good price? I don't know anything else about it yet...just curious.

it's a nice piece of equipment, but I don't use mine. Just not handy enough.

No. It's an entirely different system of cutting.

I use mine all the time, and that is a good price, if it is in good condition...cutting board good and all pieces there. I paid $200 for mine.

If it is the original Alto Quilt Cut you can buy the upgrade package from Alto directly and bring it up to specs for the newer one.

I am awaiting delivery of an Alto QuiltCut 2 as we speak. I bought it from a lady on this board. I can't wait to get it and play with it. I have several quilts bundled and ready to cut so I am really stalking the postman/UPS/delivery man. Not sure how it is being shipping. :wink:

You will love it, but take time to read the book and watch the DVD. I bought mine because my arthritic hands don't have the strength to hold the ruler steady anymore. It really works.

It is a used one. I haven't seen it yet, don't know how old it is or if it is complete. Plan on seeing it on Sat
