I used it with the 7-1/2" X 15" Riser Stand. I loved the finish piece.

Stays bright gold and better than any other product I have tried. A little goes a long way. You will be amazed at how great it looks after it has been fired. I was!!!!

Pros
I use them all the time and they add polish to your glass art piece.
Cons
The small bails do not accommodate some chains, so I always use the large ones.
Other Thoughts
Pros
I use these bails for all of my pendants, and even use the smaller ones for earrings! The large bails are perfect, because they will fit on just about any chain, regardless of the size of the clasp. The fine silver finish also compliments pendants well!
Cons
None!
Other Thoughts
Work best when used with E6000 and allowed to dry for 24 hours before moving. After that, it's almost impossible to get them off. I've actually broken fused glass pendants trying to recover the bails before.
Pros
It has cut great so far.
Easy to clean.
Cons
None so far.
Other Thoughts
I loved the video it came with.
Pros
This product is great, it is so easy to bend in a candle flame. You can make your own shapes and designs in just seconds!
Cons
As the stringer is in the flame you have to work quick to be sure not to over heat the glass.
Other Thoughts
Pros
I think it works great!
Great on Stained Glass Projects.
Cons
You need to make sure you get your pattern or tape rubbed on really well. The Etch Cream will slip under the edges.

Pros
Graduated mesh sifters are a MUST HAVE if you make your own frit.
Cons
Besides not being a stacking set that can sort in one step, the biggest problem is no catch pan for the final powder. This means repouring each sort into the next container with more airborne glass dust each time. You definitely want to keep the dust mask you were wearing when pounding the frit on during the sifting. Still, it beats trying to poke assorted size holes in the bottom of cottage cheese containers.
Other Thoughts
The mesh sizes don't necessarily match up with commercial sizes. The smallest mesh is super fine, so you might want to sift the batch through whatever sifter you use when applying powders before using the final mesh size.
Pros
This product worked great for my smaller sun catchers and 3-D stained glass projects. I loved the fact that it was bagged, making it easy to store.
Cons
I think the usual caution, when working with lead, should be adhered, since I did notice some residue on my fingers after wrapping my piece.
