Pros : This saw has been great. It's very quiet, can cut forever, and can do tight turns with no problems. Cleans great and very easy to take apart. Best investment I have made for stained glass.
|
Cons : No cons at all.
|
| Worth the money |

Pros : Cuts fast. Not as noisy as Taurus 2. Work light is great.
|
Cons : Vibration is a little annoying. Face/safety shield isn't big enough and mounted to low.

Pros : I think the best addition to my studio has been this saw. I suppose a purist wouldn't approve, but I save glass and aggravation by taking my difficult cuts to the saw. I've had mine for 4 years and am on the second blade.
|
Cons : The replacement blades are expensive. However, if you watch for them on sale and take care to use your saw correctly, the expense isn't really so bad.

Pros : It is a great product and easy to use and operate.
|
Cons : The plastic cover tends to cloud up with water and make it difficult to see where cutting and the light on the unit is not very bright.

Pros : Like it a lot. Some glass can be frustrating when cutting very concave curves. This saw will save you time and glass since you will get the cut right away without needing to grind instead of breaking expensive glass and spending a lot of time grinding to complete the cut.
Instructionons are clear and easy to follow.
|
Cons : It is noisy, but i use it in an open space. I will recommend to use vaseline or stick in product so the mark does not erase with the water. I admit it is pricy, but for me pays when I can make the impossible cuts
|
| Other Thoughts : Look for it on sale and you will not regret it. |

|
Pros : The capability for intricate and convoluted cutting is wonderful allowing for new, fantastic creative endeavors. It helped to bring my visualizations to fruition!
|
Cons : The first Taurus 3, was clearly defective in operation from the get go. I've used this model without problems previously. After three months of fairly heavy use, the new one is stellar!
|
| Other Thoughts : As a side note: Gemini needs to produce a better instructional video. |

|
Pros : Great saw, but use the mega blade instead of the omni direction blade.
|
Cons : Regular blade breaks after a few hours.
|

|
Pros : This tool is the most important one in my kit, I love it. It's fun to use and makes me look like a pro with zero experience. Mine broke the first week, but it comes with a 3 year warranty.
|
Cons : Well, it did break the first week out of the box. But again, they fixed it quick.
|
| Other Thoughts : I love my ring saw, and it has taken my new-to-stained-glass, beginner learning curve to "looking pro" overnight, literally. I highly recommend it! |

|
Pros : Cuts in all directions, and doesn't break the glass at the tips of patterns.
|
Cons : Blades only last 2-8 hours and are expensive. Beautiful machine, but not worth the blades.
|
| Other Thoughts : What good is a machine, if you can't use it? |
