Pros
Easy to use. Look great. Pendants made with these are very popular with my cat loving friends.
Cons
None
Other Thoughts
I get better results when I go to a little bit higher temperature and hold for a bit longer than the minimum specified on the instructions. The "scary" cats make great Halloween pendants and pins when applied to black glass cut in the shape of a witch's hat.
Pros
Love the glass indention beats a totally flat coaster.
Cons
None
Other Thoughts
Need to sell as a group of 4 since most coaster sets come in a set of 4. That way can slump a complete set at one firing.
Pros
Well vented, quick release, makes great pieces. I full fused a 5 5/8sq in of glass then placed it over for a quick slump in my kiln at 500dph to 1280, hold 10 min and my pieces came out PERFECT!
Cons
none

Combine colors and textures to make a plate, them slump your piece you will be surprised with the results
Pros
Exactly as pictured!
This is truly a beautiful glass with very rich color. It was very easy to cut and work with. The glass added such depth and beauty to the project I used it in, I will certainly purchase more Youghiogheny glass.

Pros
I love this board. The system allows many configurations to be held firmly while soldering. It is lightweight and a good size to fit most of my work on.
Cons
I can't think of any.

Pros
These snappers are wonderful, and I always include them in my Intro to Fusing classes for my Students to use. They allow you to snap off very thin strips of glass which are great for making jewelry.
Cons
They work well for thin strips that are two inches long or shorter. Any longer than that, and the break tends not to follow the score line. However, when cutting pieces for jewelry, shorter strips are desired most of the time anyway.
Other Thoughts
It would be nice if you could choose the color when placing an order.
Pros
I teach Intro to Fusing classes, and these small grids are great for the classroom. Small enough to fit several to a work table, and big enough to give students the cutting room they need to be creative.
Cons
I have not run into any problems with these.
Other Thoughts
Pros
Easy to read and stands up on its own. Have been fusing for about 6 months and really learned lots from the book.
Cons
None
Other Thoughts
Best book on fusing I've seen.
Pros
I could have sworn I owned them longer than 30 years. Still I have had five of them now. I would not even try anything else. They are the best.
Cons
If I could find one better I would. I have tried a few. Do wish they came with a second tip for free. Just always buy a second tip. When they go bad it happens in two minutes flat.
Other Thoughts
I just order two more for myself, what does that tell you? Somebody liked the ones I had really well. They decided to grow legs and walked out the door. They were both old enough to start Grade school this year too.
Pros
Can adjust to a variety of angles; lightweight; space saving; easy to use and cuts came like butter
Cons
haven't found any yet

Cons
None
Other Thoughts
Liked this so much, bought two.
Pros
Love the ease of use and in some cases can use it a second time to protect when slumping candles. Also cheaper papers leave fumes in the kiln which can cause a fog appearance on the glass.
Cons
fairly expensive but does save time and hassle
