looks like a great idea, and a handy tool.

Could you make one for chip board? Like the kind that is with packaged things like paper. :?:

It seems like a neat tool, but for $26 I'll be extra careful not to burn my fingers

I can keep my fingers away from the iron for less than $26.00

Thats what I do!!

I have 2-3 layers of scrap batting, pin two large safety pins the with of an iron plate apart.. slide binding thru the one pin and out the other.. I pull the binding w/o lifting the iron.. careful.. it does get a tad bit warm on the fingers..

Too much $ for my budget, I'll keep making mine the old-fashioned way...

I'm with Holice. I use pins placed 6-8 inches apart. Then put your iron down and glide the fabric through. The only thing is you have to be careful not to burn your ironing board cover. (I pin a piece of muslin down and pick up the iron once in awhile) You can get going pretty fast with this trick.

Too expensive if you ask me. I can just fold and press for free.
