    Cool My new to me Altos' Quiltcut 2 arrived this morning

    After someone mentioned the Quiltcut I was intrigued and started searching for reviews. I went to their website and watched the videos and liked what I saw. What I didn't like was the price tag, at $225.00 I thought it was a bit steep. So I set out to find a gently used one, low and behold I found one for $75.00. It arrived this morning and is in great shape. Cant wait to use it, I have to clear away a few projects then I can pull it out and start cutting fabric for my mystery quilt through my LQS!!!!![ATTACH=CONFIG]306130[/ATTACH]

    I love mine. First of all it's accurate. Second it's accurate. And finally since it is more like a tool that has a woodworking feel to it my DH now helps me with all my cutting. I check the measurements needed and he cuts with the rotary cutter.

    Just a word -- that metal thingy on the bar can be removed. I've never used mine. I love my Altos!
