Default Die Cut Workstation

Has anyone seen the die-cut workstation by sizzix? Looks so neat but is >$200. or was it $300.00. I really needed a place to put my BigShot and
keep all my dies...embossing folders etc together. I went to ebay and purchased an old Cosco Kitchen Cart with 3 shelves and have a wonderful work station and organizational place for my die cutting. All for $14.00!
Now I can spend some of the savings on MORE DIES!

Way too pricey for me also!! And I don't think it is all that great. I agree with jh56: go get a kitchen cart or something similiar and it would be cheaper and probably more functional. I have a separate table with a five-drawer cabinet that rolls right under the table for my Bigshot, so I guess I'll keep what I have for now.

I would think for the money that it is a pretty heavy duty work table.

I have a Martha Stewart kitchen cart from K-mart that I bought several years ago that I use as a die cut station for my Big Shot. Wooden top, which has warped some but works beautifully.

I might have to consider getting a kitchen cart for my Sizzix Big Shot.

For now I store my Big Shot on a book case in my office. It's got closed shelves
other than the middle where the Big Shot is and I keep my dies and embossing folders on the top closed off shelf.

I just got the Die Cuts & More Organizer from Stampin' Things. I am organizing it now and adding a few things to it then I will post to my blog. The top holds my Cuttlebug AND my BigShot! I love this storage unit! And Sue is amazing to work with!
