I’m beyond happy! I’ve had an Xcut express in my cupboard for years, an unwanted Christmas present, waiting for this moment. I’ve ordered my board and felt and can’t wait to give it a try. Thank you soooooo much Sally. X

Oh I wanted to see some usage and results. I've had this question for so long.... Wanted to try this before buying a huge one

Hi Sally, I watched with interest your 2 videos on using the cutting machine as an alternative to the linocut press. I have a Sizzix Bigshot, I would like you to know how thick the felt board and the hardboard (or mountboard) you are using. THANKS A LOT !!

Thanks very much for this Sally - really useful knowing that there is an alternative to the xcut xpress when it seems so difficult to find now!

[@jariseri5583]

The Xcut Press is not available any where. Would love to have one. Where can I find it?

Hi, just discovering this process and would like to have a play as soon as I can get hold of some ink. I have a tee shirt printing press - do you think that would work or is the rolling motion important?

[@sarahkeyworth2423]

This is so helpful, thank you! I’ve been looking for a properly portable press for plein air and workshops and this really fits the bill. Thanks for taking the time to put this together.

[@DenisePollack]

How thick is your hard board on the sizzix?

[@charalson3023]

Can you use a Cricut Cuttle Bug - Anna Griffin?
