I've bought too many "must haves" especially specialty rulers,

I have the Simplicity Bias Maker, it is a stand alone machine that operates by current or by battery. It comes with 2 or 3 tips for various sizes of tape, however, I had to purchase the 2 1/2 inch separately for about $10. What it does is iron the tape and roll it onto a spool. It does NOT cut. I love it, it presses either single or double fold, depending on the tip used.
I'm confused - does this make binding for the quilt?
It does when you cut the strips for it to fold and iron. (I, however, threw out my cord with my box, so I had to use the one off my laptop to make it work!) I am wanting to get some different sized bias folders though. Any recommendations on a site to go to?
Hancocks have them in the stores so they should have them on line.
