The Big Shot advertises it cuts and embosses. Can the Big Kick emboss?

Yes. It does both equally well. You can even use embossing sheets and/or templates from other manufacturers. You just have to adjust the plate height accordingly. Hope this helps.

The embosser is made of two pieces 1. Handle and 2. Metal insert.You can change the inserts with different information on it.

This uses dies, they probably have a square die. I would not buy this style, it's really outdated. You need one of the big shot or big kick. There's no end to the shapes they cut.

It just has a range, so I guess you could clip it to as large a distance as it has. BUT too close and it doesn't register either. I've used it on sketchbook sizes that are small, like moleskin and regular paper. It's cool, records your strokes too.

Yes, the software has a great trace feature that let's you cut almost any shape or logo imaginal. I constantly import silhouettes that I find online and cut out all kinds of shapes and logos.

No the machine does not scan the materials you are going to carve. You would have some hard work ahead of you if you wanted to do that.

The Big Kick opening is slightly narrower (either 1/4 or 1/2 inch narrower) than the Big Shot, but it WILL take a 6 inch die--the platform is about 6.25 inches wide. Otherwise the machines are identical--just a matter of the color you want or the price you are willing to pay. :-)

It will but you would have to resize or crop in Photoshop or elements and print on the 4x6 paper then cut it

Yes, if you look at my review I list all of the embossing folder brands that I've successfully used with it and how many shims that you need to accommodate those brands.

The embossed includes a custom stamp. You can choose from several designs and fonts and customize the wording. The company is prompt in responding to questions by email.

Not really...it is made to emboss plastic cards similar in size and shape to credit cards...so any other shape or material might pose an unresolvable problem!!!

The holster that I have is embossed. So the short answer is probably no. Talk to someone who is familiar with leather embossing. It could be covered with some sort of stick on label.

I would say not really. The only places open for engraving are the top/bottom and around the bottom rim of the shot glass.

I have never tried it personally, but this thing is amazingly sharp and strong. It can cut 250 pages of card stock or 350 regular paper, so I would imagine it must cut stickers

If you have a Stampin Up demonstrator, they offer it in black. From what I have read, local scrapbook stores offer a different color than the big box stores like Michael's, HL, etc. I have been researching because, I want a certain color. From what I can find the Big Kick and Big Shot are the same except for teh exterior look, i.e. handle design. Hope that helps and maybe more will comment.

Yes, it can do full cuts which cut through the label and backing, or half cuts that cut through only the label.
