Hello, crafty friends! I’m so excited to share a brand-new product from Spellbinders that’s designed to make die-cutting smoother, easier, and more comfortable—the My Turn Foldable Extended Handle for the Platinum 6 die-cutting machine. If you’ve ever struggled with turning your machine’s crank or just want to make the process more ergonomic, you’re going to love this!
This extended handle adds extra leverage, making it noticeably easier to turn, especially when working with intricate dies or thick embossing folders. Plus, the thicker grip feels much more comfortable in the hand—something I really appreciate during longer crafting sessions.
What I love about it:
-
It folds down for easy storage
-
The handle locks magnetically into place
-
It’s compatible with both the Platinum 6 and the original Platinum (with an adapter)
-
Installation is quick and simple, and I walk you through it step-by-step in my video
And yes, I did make a small mistake during installation, so I’m sharing what not to do too.

Whether you’re a seasoned die-cutting pro or just getting started, this handle is a great upgrade to improve comfort and control at your craft desk.
Let me know what you think – would you try it?
