Product Reviews
Pros
A great starter pack! Comes with a ton of colors to get you started.
Cons
Other Thoughts
A lot of glass at a good price.
Pros
I was trying to save money by using an economical brand of shelp paper and decided on a whim to try Bullseye's thinfire shelf paper and it was well worth it. Although it's a bit more expensive, you will love the results...a nice smooth finish on the back of your piece and absolutely no residue. I was also getting detrification on some of my pieces every time I fired a batch and now realize that is was from the cheaper shelf paper burnoff, because now that I've switched to Bullseye thinfire, absolutely no white patches on my pieces at all (after at least 10 firings)!
Cons
Like other customers, I wish there was a smaller roll available at a more reasonable price.
Other Thoughts
This is the first product in a long time that I've taken a chance on and I am completely satisfied with it.
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.

Pros
This tool has come in very handy. It makes making circle fast and easy.
Cons
No problems...I use mine all the time.
Other Thoughts
Pros
Breaking out inside curves just got easier! These Ringstar pliers are an absolute essential to add to your toolbox. You do need to take your time and listen to the score as you're running it, but with this tool I'm able to break out curves that didn't stand a chance before. I recommend this tool to everyone I know.
Cons
None

Pros
Cutting even the toughest glass is a piece of cake with the Cutters Mate! I use this tool to cut all of my projects. The handle is perfectly weighted so that even the deepest inside curves will usually break without a problem. I suffer with arthritis in my hands, and this tool has given new life to my stained glass efforts as I no longer suffer hand strain using the cutter. The Circle Pro is absolutely essential if you cut a lot of circles or arches, and the strip cutter is the easiest one I have ever used. All told, this is the best investment I have made for quality tools, and it's even made in the U.S.A.!
Cons
Can't think of any.

Pros
these add so much to the Kaleidoscopes, I add these along with some small glass pieces for a great look.
Cons
Was to expensive to use alone as 1 oz is really a small amount.
Other Thoughts
Watch the BOGO sales and then you get a lot for your money.
Pros
Great workhorse of glass. Adds another dimension to fused work by adding another layer without taking away from the overall design. Easy to cut and work with.
Cons
Non so far
Other Thoughts
This glass has done everything that I have asked it to do by filling in patterns and adding another layer. Very consistent and user friendly.
Pros
I was looking for a plate mold that wasn't too small but not so big that I couldn't fire two at a time in my kiln. This was just the right size.
Cons
Non so far.
Other Thoughts
I had to adjust my slumping schedule to get two layers of glass to slump all the way into the mold.
Pros
Perfect for making stained glass art. Any
4 or 7 watt night light bulb will work.
Cons
None
Other Thoughts
Great for making simple stained glass gifts.
Pros

Cons
none
Other Thoughts
Pros
Great selection, good price. Fires beautifully.
Cons
Some of the pieces were very small.
Other Thoughts
Good way to get a few different pieces for not alot of money.
Pros
Works just like the description says. Really does reverse and prevent devitrification! Easy to use.
Cons
None that I can think of.
Other Thoughts
I love this stuff. If I ever run out, I will definitely buy it again.
Pros
It really does grip well, even at the slippery-when-wet stage. The nicely off-set handles mean no sliced up thumb pads, no scraped knuckles and no fingernails ground into weird shapes.
Cons
Unfortunately, the jaws have a limited range and don't open wide enough to hold thicker pieces, like two-layer fused glass.
Other Thoughts
Pros
You can paint with glass! It opens a whole new world of possibilities.
Cons
The finish isn't glossy - capped or uncapped in clear. It is matte and grainy.
Other Thoughts
well worth getting.
Pros
Excellent value for the cost..3 functions in one grinder. Very easy to use and clean.
Cons
Water spray is too strong. Causes left hand and arm to become damp.
Other Thoughts
Would buy again. Am ordering face shield and stand to see if that cuts down on the spray.
