I love how its a hand crank machine...I can bring it anywhere and do not have to plug it in....I can even bring it out in the garden. Its a nice change of pace...and it will last forever...as long as I take care of it. Not like computers that have to be replaced every few years.

have fun with your GO. I bought mine last winter (ebay) and the dies from amazon.com (seemed to be best price).....really helped organize a lot of small pieces of fabric in my sewing cave (like mancave, only better)...have an applecore in progress, have done two tumblers, one large and one small for babies and some 2 1/2" strips for jelly roll race lap quilts. Really saves time and the amount of scrap is minimal-better than loads of fabric that have no purpose. Just make sure you cut the fab with straight of grain on whichever dies you are choicing, just like you would cut with rotary cutter/mat. There are some great videos available on utube.....also a few yahoo groups that are helpful.
