First off - does the Gemini Jr cut the Sizzlits? Or do they only work with the original red Sizzix?
and if so, what sandwich would you suggest
Thanks

I have a Gemini Jr. It’s possible that they could fit, but I would have to experiment with the sandwich. I don’t have time to play with it anytime soon. I recommend you make a sandwich with one of the dies you usually use in your Gemini Jr, then measure the thickness. Then make a sandwich with a Thinlets die, and see if you can adapt it till you get the same thickness. If you try to put a sandwitch through that is too thick, you could damage your machine and/or your die.
The Sizzlits definitely work in a Big Shot or Big Kick, not just the old red Sizzix.

I don't think it will work. I think that the pressure would ruin the die. JMHO

I just used a sizzlits this week with my gemini jr.
I had to play with the sandwich but had no issues ones I discovered the right thickness. Actually, I think it might have just been the 2 cutting plates? Or 1 thin shim in there? It was not a fussy sandwich!

There are some You Tube videos where they are using Sizzlits in the Gemini Jr. It’s a matter of having the right sandwich. One I watched used the plates and the spellbinders embossing rubber mat.
I have’t had a chance to play yet but it is definitely doable.
