Yes, I have watched the videos. Right now I have to cut 54 1 1/2" strips and 120 plus triangles. I think your machine would be great for this. Thanks for the info.

joanne has the Go on sale for 224.00 and also all of the dies are 25 percent off. I just picked up a few. I rec'd a free shipping code by email. I can't wait for the new 6 1/2 tumbler die. I have bird house material that will be perfect.

I wouldn't be without my Altos. I don't waste a bit of fabric anymore. I have had surgery on one of my hands and they are very weak, therefore I can not hold the ruler steady. This helps me tremendously!!!! Well worth the cost.

I have used my alto several times and love, love, love it. No more stips that are uneven, nothing to buy once you have made the initial investment. I did buy the carrying case since I plan on taking it up North this summer. It is made very well and easy to use.

Well I was watching the video and one thing that totally turned me off was that you have to pay for a video that shows you how to use it...

This thread is perfect. I am planning to go to a Craft Fair end of the month and see the Altos system demonstrated.

No you don't. I just got mine two months ago and the video is included with the purchase.
