6 Elliptical Box With Lid Casting Mold

6" Elliptical Box With Lid Casting Mold

Item# 77868
Great Box, August 29, 2009 4 stars
Pros
The directions were spot on as far as the firing schedule and the amount of frit used.
Cons
There is a small amount of cold working. Which means you have to clean the mold and then re-prime it to fire polish any areas.
Other Thoughts
Nice gift idea.
3 Square Stand

3 Square Stand

Item# 627156
3 Square Stand, August 29, 2009 3 stars
Pros
I like the size of the stand as it is not over powering on a table.
Cons
Not so sure I like the plastic coating. Thought that it would have been all metal, but the black is a coating.
Other Thoughts
You do have to bend the prongs that hold the glass in since everyone does different thickness of glass.

Filling Mold, February 2, 2009 4 stars
Pros
I like the small size. It is a perfect size for the key rings
Cons
I had not filled it enough with frit. Remember to overfill as the frit compacts on melting.
