I have used the Tumbler die more then I thought I would. There is a smaller size of Tumbler die out now, perfect for cutting scraps. The hexagon die is a real time saver if you are sewing a hexagon project. I use it to cut my paper discs too. Some say paper will dull the die and it may after a thousand cuts. That doesn't bother me. I have started to use the Chisel die and like it. I use the circle die for yo yos.
