Cover me in Sponge Cake then a layer of Jelly add Fresh Cream and call me a trifle
Question for those with craftrobo
have you really made use of it , has it justified its price to you ?
Yes i know all about the arguments on fonts etc, but have you really used it enough .
Guess who is thinking about it , but its a huge outlay for me and i am weighing up the pros and cons very seriously ( or as seriously as i ever can be )
still HRH Maddy

Oooh, join the club! I've flogged my quickutz for this and by 'eck, am I going to use it! lol..
I watched Zenia at SM4 cut loads and loads of stuff out for every layout she did (it seemed!) and even some great tiny little journalling in letters that you couldn't possibly attempt by hand. Dead impressed
Will watch replies with interest...

Never mind substance, let's go for style!
Well to be honest...............no!
But that is because of the state of the house. We are decorating and de-cluttering prior to selling and the damned thing isn't set up and accessible. Once I achieve that perfect state (when, Oh when?) I know I will use it and use it.

DH is trying to convince me to sell my QK for a robo. I can see the pros but the thought of it sounds so technical to me - unlike my QK where I punch and go he has even said if I sell my QK he will make up any short fall for Christmas. Me thinks he just wants a new gadget to play with.
Waiting with interest on this thread....

Just me.....
I have to agree with Sally..........I haven't used mine enough but thats only because I haven't had any time to even think about scrapping...........but then i never did much scrapping before I got it due to lack of time............if I had my way (and more time) I would scrap all day and use it loads............so go on Maddy, treat yourself!!!!!!

Back in West Country
I wanted to test this when I got mine. I brought mine over the summer when I priced up the cost of Frankie Classic and realised that my bonus would be better spent on a CR but the DH wasn't sure...
So what my DH did was stick a chart up in the office and we work out the cost per letter (so my first word was 5 letters long - making the value £70 per letter) - After 3, nearly 4 months I am down to about 55p letter - which is about on a par with some of my QK alphabets and probably better value that others. This, will only get "cheaper" as I use it more. Although I have to factor in a new carrier sheet as Carrier Sheet + Cat sleeping on it = hairy carrier sheet + not as hairy cat
Is it worth it? Yes I think it is in the long run
Would I buy one again? Yes I would

On a mission to make the world sparkle
I wouldn't be without my CR I have to say. I sold my QK and alphabets to fund it. It's so much more versatile, not just for fonts but different sizes too. Dingbats make shapes very easy to cut and the freedom to draw your own shapes is great too.
I have to admit though, sometimes I wish i didn't have to turn my computer on to use it.

hmmm...
I love mine too. It paid for itself (in value if not monetary terms!) when I had to make an album for someone, 20 DLO's each with a title and I would have run out of just about everything had I tried to use stickers or rub ons and QK is sometimes too big or too small. I could use the same font throughout and adjust the size & colour accordingly. Love it.

what are the running costs please? i gather you use a carrier sheet and a blade that need replacing, any idea how often i'd need to replace them if i averaged say, 2 titles a day?
