I don't understand why it's still the notion that the die cut machines have so much waste. Not true. I have strings of fabric left, not much to do anything with. I have the Go and the Alto Cut2. I would give up the Alto in a second if I had to choose. I seldom get the same accurate cut twice using the Alto, it's always a smidgen off. It's me I know but that's what I don't like, not being able to cut perfectly every time. If the guide is not in the precise place as it was on the cut before it, the cut is off.
