Default Sizzix Quilting Dies

I've just bought the Sizzix Big Pro and the 2.5 strip cutting die and the triangle in a square die - they should arrive sometime next week (yes!) but I am curious about some of their other quilting dies. Ones such as winding ways and drunkard's path don't seem to have the little marks so you can line them easily for sewing like the accuquilt does. If anyone has these sizzix dies (or something like them), if you could let me know? I'd much prefer the dies with the marks and I'd buy the accuquilt ones if they are the only ones with the marks.
Thanks!

You can use accuquilt dies in your sizzix with a shim

.....I have both GO and Big Shot......because these dies are so precise(IMHO) whether there are notches or not, they join together on the mark each time.......I find no difference. You will enjoy using it!

You could use AccuQuilt's GO! Winding Ways die in your Big Shot and take advantage of the notches in the curves . . .but I'm pretty sure, Drunkard's Path is only available in Studio dies and unless I'm mistaken, Studio dies are too thick to be used in Big Shot cutters.

Thanks for all the advice! I really want to try sewing curves, but am really nervous about things matching up. It's nice to know that whichever one I buy, it should fit together easily -

Drunkards Path is available for the GO. I have one. Love it.
