This glass is smooth and works great as a base for fusing. Great value because the cut edges means it is all usable. Love it!

Pros
Small and quick to fire, uses much less electricity and takes very little time. Perfect for a dorm or apartment. Useful for someone not wanting to spend a lot to get started doing fusing.
Cons
Small size, but this is also an advantage.

I bought this awhile back, and it sat in a closet for a few months. I've got a large Jen Ken kiln and a smaller 9" kiln that I use for bead annealing and smaller fusing. I've used the 9" kiln for making nuggets and jewelry, but sometimes I just want to test some glass reactions, or fuse some coarse frit to make nuggets or pieces of small jewelry. This is PERFECT for making nuggets...I can fuse coarse frit in 3 minutes, and within about 8 minutes it's ready to use. Previously I used the 9" to do the same thing, and it took about 2 hours. This is a time-saver and a conveniently portable little kiln. I'm taking it to my parent's RV rally in a few weeks to make custom jewelry pieces for rally attendees.
Pros
Don't have to grind glass to exact size.
Can decorate both sides.
Cons
Area is very large.
Stopper is rather heavy.

ready to use and not too sharp for beginners to play with -

Other Thoughts
I use lots of tiny pieces in my mosaics and these save me years of cutting.
I also do projects with some local kids in the summer. These tiles, and also the cathedral and irid glass tiles are affordable and not too sharp to be used as-is, even for people who are new to glass projects.
Pros
Easy to use and clean up;
although liquid, easy to control during use
Cons
Just be careful not to make your lines to thick - it could chip off after firing if you use it on top of your glass
Other Thoughts
I'm sure this can be used to draw and accent designs, but it was my best solution yet to signing fused pieces. It is recommended for use between layers, but it has worked well for my signature on top of a piece.
Pros
I have had this saw for years and absolutely love it! I use it for zinc, copper and brass came.
Cons
Have to watch to be sure you don't get too close to the blade and you need to be sure to wear your safety glasses!
Other Thoughts
Pros
It sparkles! Looks just as good once fired.
Cons
It isn't available in every other color. Spectrum how about Adventurine Red next??
Other Thoughts
Pros
The medium bails are a great size. Not too small and not too large--just right.
Cons
Some bails in the package are not as smooth as they should be. In fact, none of them are as smooth as the large and small bails.
Other Thoughts
I have even thrown a few out that were extremely rough. But I love the size!
Pros
This glass is absolutely gorgeous! A whole new world for the 90 fuser. Cuts and fuses beautifully. The subtle etching adds a 3D effect. Try it over brightly colored dichro! A Winner.
Cons
pricey

Pros
Good quality and attractive. Best of all this cutter is ergonomically designed and helped alleviate the tendonitis in my thumb and wrist. Length is adjustable but worked fine for my hand out of the box. Reservoir cap is solid and does not leak. Good feel transmitted through the hand for applying the right pressure to the glass.
Cons
Takes a second or two to grab and set it firmly into one's hand. However, with use this becomes second nature.
