Spectrum Sky Blue & White Wispy Iridized

Item# SI83391

Perfect Glass to Depict the Sky!, October 22, 2014 5 stars

Pros
The color is a clear, brilliant aqua (cyan) with wispy clouds lightly distributed throughout. The non-irid version of this sheet is perfect for bright, sunny skies; this iridized version adds a sunrise effect whenever front light hits it. Spectacular!

Cons
This glass has the potential to be addictive...? ;-)

3/8" Venetian Glass Tile Value Assortment - 3 lb Bulk

Item# 42719B

quality AND quantity!, September 16, 2014 5 stars

Pros
Great variety of tiny glass tiles; they arrived without a single broken tile (which was actually a bit of a pleasant shock!)

Cons
I suppose if you wanted (or didn't want) a particular color, an assortment like this might not work for you... but then you would buy the colors individually, wouldn't you? ;-)

Other Thoughts
Your mileage may vary, of course, but my pack came with approximately equal quantities of 10 colors: dark blue, light blue, mid-green, dark green and rootbeer-brown speckled, as well as white, black, yellow, orange and red solid

16 Gauge Pre-Tinned Wire - 1 lb

Item# 452116

good price for a great product, September 13, 2014 5 stars

Pros
perfect for use with stained glass since it bends and solders easily; large quantity 16oz spool is much more economical than the more commonly available 4oz spools

Cons
need jewelers tools to make very tight turns or corners at this gauge; but I consider that to be a pro because this means it also holds its shape well

Other Thoughts
excellent weight for making O-rings for picture hanging; also fits very snugly into the 3/32"OD copper tubing that Delphi sells for making box hinges

Oceanside Rack Pack Glass Pack

Item# SRAKPAK

Good variety at a Great price!, May 25, 2014 5 stars

Pros
My crate contained 3-5 sheets of each color/texture, including a wonderful variety of opals, streakies, cathedrals and a few opaques; extremely well packaged, with no damage but a few very tiny chips

Cons
Don't buy a crate if you want a specific color spectrum; I wanted background shades but was thrilled with what I received: fewer than a third of these pieces will be "just background colors" for me!

Other Thoughts
If your expectations are sane, the price per square foot is reason enough to give this a five star rating!
