I just got my new Bira machine today, 1st embossing folder went great, but the sizzix embossing folder did not. Seems like its too thick and I've made adjustments and it either kicks the plates up like its doing a backwards wheelie or there isn't any pressure at all.. Any suggestions?

I got this as a gift and was soo looking fwd to use it. However, my excitement did not last long. In the 6 inches box embossing silicon pad is not included, neither I can buy in Canada. I contacted the Bira's customer service number, a girl who answered phone was soo lost and I realized she was pretending she was writing down the info I asked her about. She promised she will figure out how to help, she NEVER called back, she never send an email...I do not know what to do, since on Canadian amazon silicon pad is not available, basicly my machine is sitting on my table useless...and it is not cheap product. Very disrepsectful attitude towards customers after sale.

If you're still looking, I couldn't find one anywhere for my 9" machine. The silicone pads for sale are 2mm thick, so got a (clear) 2mm thick silicone rubber countertop pad and it works great! (Whisper, and it's cheaper so you can buy big and have extras!.)

I just got the Bira 9" and love it! Have you run into any issues? Took me months of research to choose it and did see Gina Ks looked identical. To make sure I wasn't getting a lesser machine, I zoomed in tight on photos, compared weight, etc. The only difference I could see was color. I do think Gina K seems more motivated though. She does offer a 3 mo warranty, but I couldn't find one on the Bira. It is possible they use the same manufacturer. Son sells non-crafting stuff and he has his brand printed them -it's common practice.

I saw that there was a magnetic platform for the 6” Bira. It wouid be nice if a magnetic platform was offered wirh the 9” machine and also available seperately for those that might want that as an option. I have the 9” machine and I love it. I love that it does it all! It can use the foiling and letterpress devices offered by other companies, as well as embossing, die cutting and it even works with steel rule dies! Up till now my Sizzix Big Shot was my primary machine ( I have several other machines that I’d use when I couldn’t use the Big Shot) but I think this 9” Bira will be my primary machine now! I have used 8 different die cutting machines , manual and electric, so I’m experienced wieh die cutting machines. The Bira is simply amazing! Great price, compact design, and does it all!

I absolutely love my 6" machine and choose this over both my Spellbinders Platinum 6 and my Gemini Jr machines for everyday use. I am a paper crafter and almost exclusively die cut and emboss cardstock ranging from 80 lb. to 120 lb. in weight. I get 100% consistent results every time. No disconcerting cracking sounds, no plate warping, and while the cutting mat does need to be replaced to do so is cost effective. I typically replace my cutting mat once a year. I also love the 13" surface. I can either many items or just put a few at the top and roll back and forth. Easy peasy. Thank you Bira Craft for creating such an innovative and reliable die cutting and embossing machine!

Hello Lori. Yes, the cutting mat should get marks on it from the dies. But only the cutting mat. It is normal to need to replace cutting mats depending on use. Also, please be sure to flip over and use both sides as well as place the dies in different parts of the cutting surface for longer life. Also you can reach out to us or call us if you need any help at all. Just go to our website at www.biracreative.com

I'm a a bit confused with the embossing die. Why do you have to run it through two times? I thought I just watched a video of the Sissix ( making Tim Holtz Village), and it only went through once. This was a big item I want to make and just want clarity. Would a embossed die need to be run through 2 times on any machine, or just this one?

Hello Katy. No, you should not have to run it through twice. Let us solve this for you. I'm sure you're using the setting adjustments and checking that the machine is set to 2D or 3D embossing. We also need to know the sandwich you are making and what kind of embossing folders (2D or 3D).

Cannot figure out how you get an A2 out of a square 8x8 piece of paper scored on all fours sides an equal 3 1/2 inches. I keep getting a square with no extra to tape together. Another poduct (won't mention name) gives to dimensions to alter with as you go around, giving a rectangle, as that is what an A2 is.
