Product Description

The quick-fit bit system is unlike any other bit in stained glass! It is designed to be quick to change without the use of a hex wrench or other tools like conventional grinder bits. With a flip action of the holder's lever, you can change your bit, or the grit of the bit, in seconds! There's no need to find and use keys or locking tools - no grinder freeze-ups!

The Standard Bit Grit is the most common grit used by glass artists for its universal use. Can be used on all different thicknesses of glass. It is great for grinding and shaping glass with a grit of 100/120. Techniglass makes it easy to identify the Standard Bit Grit by designating the color green.

Standard replacement diamond bit sleeve for The Grinder, Glastar Superstar II Grinder (#5195). Also a replacement for Quick Fit Bit System #8402. Note this is the diamond bit sleeve only. Holder sold separately, see item #8402.

Pros : Easily replaced, price is right, overall quality is good.
Cons : you can not use the center of the bit no matter what you do, UNLESS you hold the glass in your hand to use the very center of the bit. Flipping the bit over does not reach the center. The only design flaw of The Grinder and this bit system.
Other Thoughts : They need to figure out how to allow you to lower the bit so you can use the entire surface without having to hold the glass to use the very center of the bit.

When and how did you get started in stained glass? Ive been interested in stained glass for as long as I can remember. As a child, I would sit in churches and watch the (often) biblical depictions come to life when a stray ray of sunlight cast its illumination our way. Sun shadows dancing. I dabbled in many media over the years, trying to find an outlet for some of the visions careening inside, but none of them took. Drawing, painting - even watercolours - no amount of professional training could guide my hand in a satisfactory way. But then there was the glass. I lived abroad for a few years, and wound my way through Europe on my way back to the States when I finished my Peace Corps Service. My last international destination was Paris, where one of my closest friends lives as an organist. Two beautiful autumn

Chances are, right now, in reading this blog post, youre avoiding an overdue task. I too was avoiding a laundry list of work-related tasks in writing this. Procrastination is a part of life, and its certainly always been a part of mine. As a teenager, my parents would accuse me of putting off everything from piano practice to math homework. Id vehemently deny their charges hissing back, I work better under pressure. The truth was, I often felt overwhelmed, under-productive and anxious. Over the years, Ive been able to combat my avoidance issues using 4 tools. The trick is constantly reminding myself of these actions, because they do not come naturally to me. 1. Just Say No. I say yes to everything. Need someone to head up that event? Sure. Want me to design 12 posters for the Car Wash? No problem. Take your kid to daycare? Of course.
