I'm glad they're back in production, can you tell me when and if they'll be available in the US? TIA

I could do it manually by the time I go through all those steps

Do sewers actually need a tool like this? Since you still have to cut the cloth I don't see the value.

Some one should make a bias tape maker that can actually cut various sizes of bias tape and shape it as well. Wouldn't that be neat . With all the technology out there you would think that someone would have done this already. Think of all the time it would save.

When making the tape it's best to use a fat quarter and use the continuous tape method as there are less seams.Whete do you buy the machine from?

I bought mine on ebay a couple of years ago

Will the tips be sold separately? I already have the machine but tips are near impossible to find.

Why does everyone put awful music on these videos that make it impossible to hear? Your voice is more than enough!

[JeanClaudePeeters-cq]

You have to be very lazy to spend 175, - for this.

This is the worst machine Simplicity continues to manufacture. I have bought 3 machines and returned 2 of them. I still gave my original but none of them worked past 5 days. I gave my original to an electrician to see why the roller won’t push out the material. After a few months of trying to fix it he has given up. It’s hopeless since Simplicity does not want to replace my machine.
