The Spellbinders White Platinum Scout (PS-001) is the latest addition to the Platinum family, released in mid-2024. It is a "mini marvel" designed for crafters who need maximum power in a portable format. Despite its small stature, the Scout is built with the same steel internal components as the full-sized Platinum machines, making it a high-pressure workhorse capable of crisp cuts and deep 3D embossing. Its 3.5-inch wide platform is the largest in the compact machine category, specifically optimised for Slimline (8.5" long) dies and folders.
Key Features:
Superior Portability: The doors fold up for easy storage and transport. At approximately 1.2 kg (2 lbs 10 oz), it is a smart companion for workshops, retreats, or crafting in small spaces.
Extended Platform: The unique 3.5" x 9" platform is longer than most mini machines. This accommodates the majority of Slimline dies and the 3D folders designed for the "Scout" size without needing to purchase separate extended plates.
Universal Plate System Included: The machine comes with a dedicated mini version of the colour-coded Universal Plate System. This ensures you have the correct "sandwich" for everything from thin etched dies to thick 3D embossing folders right out of the box.
Exclusive Scout Bundle: Every Scout includes a specialised die set and a 2.75" x 8.5" 3D embossing folder that are exclusive to this machine and not sold separately.
Stabilising Design: Unlike some mini machines that slide, the Scout features fold-down doors that provide a wider, more stable base during the hand-cranking process.
