You need the frit sifter to get full benefit from piston.
Pros
Works great as a base layer, or stacked for a thick clear piece. All other cut glass, frit, and slides have fused perfectly with it. It can't be beat for the value.
Cons
Have not found any

Other Thoughts
Pros
These are so much fun to work with!
Cons
One of the little metal reamers was missing from my set.
Other Thoughts
I'm going to buy two more sets, so I don't have to keep stopping to clean them when I'm working with multiple colors in a short period of time.
Pros
I'm finding it very easy to use.
Cons
The wheel with the cutting blades frequently moves after tightening it, so the blade shifts out of position and doesn't cut.
Other Thoughts
I put a flat rubber disk (used for opening jars)on the flat surface, and placed the glass piece on top of it. It helps keep the glass from sliding as you cut it. Also, be sure to stop cutting as soon as you complete the circle, or the glass will not break evenly.
Pros
This is easy to use with the metal tips, and the color fires true.
Cons
None.
Other Thoughts
I'm going to buy the whole spectrum of colors, now that I have experimented with the red, black and blue.
Pros
Large sellection of colours for a reasonable price. Good colour saturation.
Cons
None

More information on what the colours (enamel set F)are and how to use them can be found on Thompson Enamels web site. Their Thompson Enamel Woorkbook has a wealth of information. It is a very complete reference on all of Thompson's products. Well worth the cost.
Pros
The articulated arm on a slider gives exceptional range, allowing a single cut 20" long without lifting. The cutter is weighted and provides a uniform weight and easily manageable cutter. This tool quickly replaced all other hand cutters / scorers. It is a "must-have" to prevent wrist fatigue
Cons
The cutter oil feeder is great, but the oil quickly drained out, and the oil reservoir had to be filled with each use
Other Thoughts
it's companion, Circle Pro, is an equally essential tool!
Pros
Well fitting and foils easily.
Accompanying pattern suggestion looks nice.
Cons
Blue looks more pale once assembled in finished piece.
Other Thoughts
Suggestion: Would like to see more GST floral bevel clusters in more vibrant or deeper colors e.g.: bi-color rose, hibiscus, camellia, wisteria.
Pros
This huge mesh roll has come in very handy and will last for a long time. The mesh is sturdy, easy to cut, and easy to store because the roll stands up all by itself.
Cons
No cons.
