I was looking into this the other day. I am really interested also!
Cool piece of machinery, but way beyond my budget - I need to have some money left over for my charity!
It is the thing the people on the cake competition shows on food network and WE tv use to roll out their fondant. They are used for pizza dough also.
I always tithe 10%. So the way I see it, if I can be so forturnate to be able to purchase a sheeter, technically I should be able to make more and tithe more.
Please help me if my thinking seems flawed. My excitement about getting into business has me pretty much delirious. It helps to have you all around me to keeping me thinking straight.
I am looking at a used one for $500--really debating. They're SO expensive and this one is a deal.

Nope, I agree. If you buy a sheeter, you can (eventually) make more money, and thus (eventually), tithe more money.
Does that help?

Love that you said this and I totally agree with you. 
Oh yeah, and I want a sheeter too!
Well I bought the sheeter! We're opening a deli/bake shop (second time I've done this!) and I know it's going to be used A LOT. From cinnamon rolls to fondant--cookies and bierocks! It's an oldie, but a goodie!
Amazing how that works, I didn't know I needed one till I saw it on Cake Boss, now I cn't wait to get one LOL
I never saw a sheeter until I watched Food Network Challenge, and Now?
I'm thinking to myself"how come I don't have one?"
Maybe once I open my own shop, but for now at home, looks like its just me and my rolling pin! lol

The pasta maker only works for small pieces of fondant Brooke, a sheeter makes easier to cover whole cakes in fondant. 
Bread dough, rolled out and filled with a mixture of hamburger, cabbage, onion and seasonings--then baked.
kansas,
Thanks. Very interesting. Never heard of it.
How do you pronounce that?
I'm in the same boat! I'm hoping my next big equipment purchase will be a sheeter, but I can't figure out what I'm buying. Do you have to get a fondant sheeter specifically? Will a dough sheeter work just as well as the one labeled specifically for fondant? I hear that Somerset is the best brand to go with, so with that being a given, what's the big difference between the dough sheeter and the fondant sheeter?? Any kind words of wisdom here would be greatly appreciated!
I'm fortunate enough to have a sheeter (believe me, I know how lucky I am!). I have the 30" Somerset model. I don't think there's a difference between a fondant sheeter and a dough sheeter except maybe how thick or thin you can roll sheets. In my opinion, you wouldn't want to roll both dough and fondant on the same sheeter. It's simple and easy to clean, but cleaning is kind of a pain if you're switching between flour and powdered sugar (you need a little bit before running fondant through the sheeter).
I would definitely recommend this equipment to anyone who can find a way to get one. It's so easy that I definitely feel like I'm cheating!
I have a pasta machine, too, and it's a great little tool. It's true that it can't roll out sheets of fondant large enought to cover a cake, but it's great for smaller things, like rolling out long pieces for swags or long sort-of-wide strips that you can either cut "planks" from (like for boxes or mini-houses) or use cookie/flower cutters on. Once the sheet is rolled out, it also cuts strips of different widths (from spaghettini to ravioli), which can also be very useful for cake decorating. I didn't know what a sheeter was until I read this thread, but like all of you, I don't know how I've lived without one for so long. Too bad about the price!
