    Default Does anyone use a Go fabric Cutter

    I have been drooling over this machine on UTube, does any one on here use one? Are they worth buying? Are they easy to use?

    I have the accuquilt go and really do like it, its very easy to use. For me it was worth buying because I have arthritis in my hands and this makes it easier and much faster for me to cut with, but if you're going to only use it a few times a month you may want to think about it before purchasing because of the costs of the dies. I ordered my accuquilt go and all my dies from shopvacdirect.com and the prices are much more reasonable there then anywhere else that I've checked on.

    I think I seen on this forum where MSQC was going to sell another brand of cutter in the near future so you may want to check it out before buying the go.

    I have the GO, and also like it because it saves on the hands I do sometimes feel that I am "cheating" by not using the rotary cutter, but I work full time and would never get anything finishedcwithout a few shortcuts. The dies are a bit pricey, but getting the basics has been a real time saver for me.

    I've had mine for awhile now. I LOVE it for cutting strips a whole lot! I have used it for 5" squares and have been a bit annoyed with wonky squares and I am going to try a few of the tips I've come across and hope it helps with that problem (like using piece of paper with the fabric and starching the living daylights of it). The rag quilt dies are also very handy!! Honestly though I am really happy with it.
    Finished is way better than perfect!

    I have had the Go for a long time and would not be without it. I will be taking it with me to our Guild retreat this week end again.
    Sewvacdirect happens to be in Bryan-College Station, Texas were I live. I was there Friday and got the 4 1/2" strip die. My DH always gives me a gift certificite from them for Christmas.

    Strange all the replies are from the US. Does anyone in the UK have one if so where did they get it from?

    I do believe that Divine Daisy has the Go Baby. It's been a while so I'm not sure where she got it. I imagine that Amazon UK has them. You might check there.
