4 stars Love it! By on
Pros : Easy to set up, simple instructions. Can't wait to use it to make beautiful geometric pieces!
Cons : seems like it could be a bit inexact if you're not careful to lock everything down.
Other Thoughts : I had a hard time choosing between this and other systems. I'm glad I got it!

3 stars confusing By on
Pros : not sure yet
Cons : instructions are clear as mud
Other Thoughts : I just received the beetle bits system for Christmas, the instructions make NO sense, NONE, could they be any more vague? I kind of got it set up, gave up reading the instructions and just looked at the picture. Then went to put the cutting tool on, and it said I have to adjust the screw that controls the height of the cutting wheel, it fails to tell you what height to put it at, or what I can use to reference the correct height, so I am now afraid to even use it for fear of damaging the cutting head, and or the ruler. Also, am I suppose to pull the cutter towards me, or away from me, does it matter? Is there any way to break the glass using something with this system or am I suppose to use my running pliers? also, does anyone know of a video that would make any of this clearer? Anyway, any help I can get would be great. Thanks

4 stars Good stuff By on
Pros : This is a good cutting system. It is versatile. It is easy to cart around since it breaks down into pieces.
Cons : I agree with the statement "the cutter bit keeps falling out of the holder and there doesn't seem to be any way of locking it into the holder."
Other Thoughts : I would recommend buying it.

Studio News: The Tool I Can't Live Without
Feb 14, 2012
I don’t have just one favorite tool, but there is one that I use virtually every time I work on a project. As you know, having the right tool for the job, makes the job a whole lot easier. Beetle Bits Cutting System with the Flying Beetle Attachment This system provides the speed and precision glass cutting that a busy studio demands. Cutting strips, squares, angles and more are perfect every time, and this tool does it in half the time of other systems. Be sure to train your entire staff to use this amazing system and they’ll all be anxious to use it. Plus, they now have a 35” bar to use with your system, so cutting large pieces of glass is fast and accurate. There is a video on the Business Center, under Studio Resources that demonstrates all the wonderful things this system will do.
