Morton System Start-Up Kit

Item# 60001

Excellent!, October 2, 2016 5 stars

Pros
easy to use fun

Cons
Instructions are a little confusing, must have adequate space

Other Thoughts
This is one awesome set! I purposely waited to cut diamonds until I got this set. I struggled in the beginning with the instructions and explanations but once I watched a couple of videos, it was a snap to learn. I made perfect strips, squares, triangles, and diamonds in a very short amount of time. I have struggled with this for years, I am wondering why I didn't buy this sooner and avoid all the struggle.

Diamond Laser 5000 Band Saw

5000 Saw, August 4, 2012 4 stars

Pros
The saw cuts like a dream through a variety of glasses including thick pot melts. Set up was easy and saw is easy to use.

Cons
Very loud! I have to wear ear plugs. The blades are poorly made, I got maybe 2 hours of cutting time on 1 blade and maybe 3 hours on the second. I am currently looking for a different manufacturer for blades. The saw is also very messy, water flows everywhere and the water tray is too small to catch any of it. I have placed the entire saw and tray into a large plastic container to catch the water run off from the table. This is working well for me.

Other Thoughts
I purchased this saw as a step up from my DL 3000 because I have just worn it out. I thought that this saw would be a little more sturdy for the amount of use I put a saw through, so far it just seems more expensive. The blade cost compared to blade quality is horrible and the noise level is unbelievable. I would not purchase this saw again but would purchase 3 of the DL 3000 for the same cost.

Bullseye Mega 45 lb. Glass Pack - 90 COE

OMG!!, July 18, 2011 5 stars

Pros
I am very impressed with the wonderful variety this pack contains. I received 4 clear, 4 white, and 2 black and there were no other duplicates in this pack. Awesome representation of bullseye glass in premium colors, strikers, and standard glass. My pack contained only 10x10 sheets and I am most happy with it. Will definitely purchase again!

Cons
none that I can think of

Glastar All Star G8 Grinder

Item# 5185

Awsome!, July 5, 2011 5 stars

Pros
I love this grinder! It is versatile and easy to use. The upper deck is great when using the small bits. I was able to drill holes in my fused glass work with very little effort and much less complicated than using a diamond drill bit. The storage drawer is a nice addition.

Cons
None that I can think of.

Bullseye Thinfire Shelf Paper 20-1/2" Sheet - 50 Pack

Item# 740550

Great Product, April 27, 2011 5 stars

Pros
This paper has multiple benefits, it is simple to use, requires no fuss (such as wash having to cure), leaves a very smooth finish on the glass and can be used in slumping molds as well as on the shelf. the quality is wonderful, I have not had any problems with glass sticking when using this paper or getting those large bubbles in my work caused by shelf wash. It is well worth the price just for the decrease in aggravation and wasted time when using other products.

Cons
Price is the only con, however, when compared to the frustration at having a piece ruined because the kiln wash caused bubbles, it is worth every penny.
