Sidekick

I'm very interested in the outcome of this poll. A die cut machine will be my next "big" purchase. What I've heard about the AcuCuts in magazines, sounds good to me, but I think it's fairly new on the market. Haven't heard a lot of peeps talking about that.

I don't have a sidekick, but do have a Sizzix. I have used the sidekick at the crops and prefer to just use the regular Sizzix. I use an adaptor and use the smaller sizzlets too.

Favorites: Shadowbox Alpha SEt Lg Filmstrip (red) Butterfly #1(green) Snowflake (green) Lollipop Alpha Set (onlmy wish list)

My favorite dies (These are the ones I have so far): Lollipop uppercase alphabet and numbers Script alphabet Christmas Sizzlets Small tag set Sizzlets(LOVE THESE!) Small green snowflake Large Red Circle Large Red Square set Next on my wish list is another alphabet! :) I would also like to try some embossing folders. Not sure yet how to use those.

Got you info Linda...many thanks for your input Marilyn

Yes I have the sidekick, the bigger machine, and handtool. Out of them I prefer the sidekick and sizzix. The handtool kills your hand!!!!!!!! I have 5 alpha sets and I also use quickutz dies in my machines. So I have been able to Love Sizzix Products and Hate Quickutz!!!

Got your info Brandy...thanks! 5 alpha sets...wow! Would you like to let us know which alphas you have and list them in order of preference :o)

Right peeps...this is the last call for responses to the Sizzix Sidekick question, so I can begin to decipher your responses so far. I will post here when I have looked at everyone's answers, before passing it on to M-C for posting to the RCS website :o) Below was the original question posed by M-C but people have answered including some of their sizzix...rather than sizzlit dies. No matter...I will see how it all turns out and thanks to everyone who has participated in this little survey :o) Thanks.....Marilyn

**********************************************8 Like it, hate it, why and if you like it your top 5 dies (and alpha set counts as one). If someone can volunteer to compile the answers, I'll post that to the website as well and next time we can point the person in that direction as well as tell them what our latest opinion is. AFTER we/ve done the sidekick, so as not to confuse the issues, we should do top 3 die cut systems. I'll expand our scrapbooking 101 section to add all this info.
