Anna Griffin GoPress & Foil Machine
I just became aware of this foiling machine today. I googled it and watched a couple of Youtube videos about it. Has anyone seen this machine in action?
I have the Minc machine so I've been trying to decide things this machine will do that the Minc cannot. One example, is this new machine will foil using embossing folders.
Anyone have any thoughts on this new GoPress & Foil Machine?

I would think you could use your embossing plates, double side adhesive, and deco foil to pretty much do the same thing since deco foil can be used without heat. (If that makes sense, you'd place the adhesive on cardstock, run it through your embossing machine, peel up the adhesive, place your foil, run it through again and then peel it off.. I think I might try it when my decofoil kit comes in.)

Sounds interesting but I'm pretty happy with my Minc.

It's pretty bulky for storage if you already have a Minc. The convenience is that the tray you heat sandwiches immediately through the roller machine. But I haven't seen it do anything the Minc can't. You can use other foils with the Minc, it can handle chipboard (you can always sandwich them through your die-cut machine for more pressure), and you can even run your thin metal dies through (no ejection foam). There's another machine that heats your die and uses your die to apply the foil. So...I'm still waiting myself.
