Lots of videos on line plus on Create TV, Its sew easy tv show has been using it alot lately too. They aren't promoting it but teachers like Crafty Gemini and Angela Wolfe use it to cut different things they normally applique using the emb machine. This feature really makes applique on the emb machine go so much faster and cleaner looking. They have two different price points, both machines do the same thing, the one that is about 100 more has so much more with it that you'd pay more than 100 to buy the added items later on. You can also scan doc, pics, etc onto your pc like a regular scanner so its not just for crafters. You can even have your kids or grandkids sign thier names and have the machine cut them out and add it to a project. It will be nice yrs later to see thier handwriting when they were small.
