I used the C plate as the base plate then the embossing folder then a piece of thick card for the MBossabilities folders & 2 pieces of thick card for all other embossing folders. Hope this helps (",)Sandycal999https://www.blogger.com/profile/08855836717233652304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1065650000998854682.post-49807004607717078432011-09-27T16:40:58.171+01:002011-09-27T16:40:58.171+01:00I'm sorry to hear of your problems Eileen. I ...I'm sorry to hear of your problems Eileen. I remember the same company coming in to the embroidery machine market with a much more affordable machine. I remember the problems with faulty machines and poor customer service and these machines cost an awful lot more than the cutting machine for papercrafts... If you Google you can find reviews which tell the story. For me Joy is a name to be wary of in crafts:(Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13836809396500087528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1065650000998854682.post-22336743999544871962011-09-23T18:41:23.047+01:002011-09-23T18:41:23.047+01:00Hi.

It was the wholesaler who eventually supply me with new gears, which also broke.

Pity Spellbinders didn't check out embossing folders suitability before they launched the GC - then buyers wouldn't have to fork out again for a new plate!

I was able to use folders in the GC previously by using the universal adapter plate which I have for the Wizard - but it's so much easier now.CraftyJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02383492015786933744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1065650000998854682.post-2149402708582034552011-09-22T11:56:39.149+01:002011-09-22T11:56:39.149+01:00Thanks for your imput Rita, and I'm very pleas...Thanks for your imput Rita, and I'm very pleased that you are liking your GC, wish I had met that couple!<br />ikkiikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01861455413738755644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1065650000998854682.post-4524359927738400592011-09-22T11:30:50.784+01:002011-09-22T11:30:50.784+01:00Just to say that I went to buy the JT and a couple...Just to say that I went to buy the JT and a couple in the shop said to go for the Grand Calibur as this was their 3rd time of bringing it back to the supplier. Needless to say I took their advice and I'm so happy with the GC, it really does it all. So Ikki I think what you have said may do others a big favour.
