Product Reviews
Pros
I have made several of these hummingbirds. They are easy to make. You can use your scrap glass pieces to create the birds. I would give them a five.
Cons
I can not find any cons in regard to this product
Other Thoughts
Be careful when purchasing to ensure you have the right bird. The product also comes in the hoving style.
Pros
Good device for holding small pieces of glass for grinding. I have one for each grinder station. Also helps in holding pieces when using the small bits mounted on top of the larger cylinder.

Well-made
Adjustable (unique) head replaceable though rarely needs to be replaced!

Other Thoughts
Of course you could always use a glass saw...but that's cheating!! I've used this tool for over 15 years and it's the best for breaking that risky inside curve!! It is one of the most valuable tools in my tool box!! I wish I could give this 6 stars! Love you Delphi...Keep up the good work!!!
Pros
The pre-finished edges to this table give it a professional look and makes it very easy to create a beautiful finshed product.
Cons
somewhat spendy but saves time
Other Thoughts
Pros
Potential in this medium is great. It takes quite a learning curve with firing schedules, but once you get through that, it's a lot of fun. Don't give up!
Cons
Need to copy using home laser printer. Professional copiers get too hot. Remove tissue covering you can't really see before copying. Fuse at 1300 if on glass surface; 1450 with cap.

Pros
I find these easy to work with by covering them with primo primer. I fired them the first time using shelf paper while doing my initial experimenting so that when I put the primo primer on them it would stick better because normally they have to be fired first before covering with primer. And, I love the different sizes.
Cons
Haven't had any problems thus far. Would love to be able to buy them separately.

What am I still doing here? I need to get back to the kiln! :)
Pros
I purchased Glass Eye 2000 and have been very happy with it. I enjoy features of being able to acquire images from differnt sources and use them as background images to make or incorporate into a pattern that I am making. I also like the feature of being able to copy sections from the many patterns in the Pattern Designs in Glass Eye into the patterns I am making. The best feature is that it will print out the size pattern I want, no more off to the blueprint shop for my pattern enlargements or multipal copies. I can also zoom into a particular area of my pattern and can easily see where I need more or less to get the effects I want in the pattern. The Help Section, which I have used with ease, has answered most of my questions or given me solutions. My husband made a pattern in 2 hours without knowing how to use the program or taking the Tutorials it comes with. I highly recommend it!
Cons
I should have purchased it sooner.
Other Thoughts
I feel it has enhanced my pattern design work and has helped me in my preformance as a stained glass artist.
