simplicity bias tape maker
#1
I did a search and read lots of threads on this, but most were posted a year or so ago. I read a review that the one-inch tool that comes with it works fine, but none of the others do because they are not close enough to the heat. They said it doesn't fold and crease it well. Has anyone used this with any of the other tips? I make a lot of bias tape and wonder if it's worth it. Wal Mart has it for $59 online. Thanks for your help.

I have this and I use the large size for 2.5" binding strips. It works fine for me.
I always wait and let the machine get good and hot. That means I wait a few more minutes after the light comes on to tell me it is ready.
If I ever feel like it is not creased well enough, it is very easy to run it through a second time, but I don't usually have a problem.
I use this for all of my binding now. It beats pressing it in half!

Thanks....I'll see what they say.Might be better price during holidays.
When I did a search the day I was looking, it was $59 and could be shipped free of charge to your local store.
