Glastar Foiling Machine by jimmac on November 15, 2008 4 stars
Pros
Wasn't sure I would like using a machine to help save time in foiling, but after just a few pieces of foiling on this machine, it cut foiling time in half. Mounted machine on heavy board so I can reposition it as necessary to achieve the best location and keep it portable. Would recommend highly.
Cons
none that I have found

Circle Pro 12 by greenfrog on November 14, 2008 5 stars
Pros
Great to work with, cuts well! It is a great asset to our studio!
Cons
Sometimes the pegs slip out of grid base -just have to be careful when cutting. Tiny circles (are kind of tedious, but do-able) Not as sturdy as a lens cutter for tiny circles.
Other Thoughts
I pride myself on how I hand cut circles, but if you have many to do or want a little help... I highly recommend this product!

10" Round Black Metal Art Stand by DesertOne on November 12, 2008 5 stars
Pros
Very attractive with sturdy construction and finish. Better looking than most. It doesn't look cheap like a lot of others on market. Great price.
Cons
Little variation from one to another, but not a big deal.

Gryphon Wet Belt Sander by andie769 on November 1, 2008 4 stars
Pros
I like the speed and the ability to grind glass. The larger surface makes grinding quick.
Cons
The belts do not stay on very easily. They tend to slide off to the left. Would be better if the cover at the top was metal on all sides.
Other Thoughts

Table Foiler by mark12no on October 30, 2008 5 stars
Pros
If you are doing foiling by hand give it up. It has saved on band-aids!!..I love mine, it has cut down on time.. on large pieces, with light curves..Works on Vary widths of foil..
Cons
Hard to line up foil to get in center of piece. Cannot do small pieces, and very complex curves and small half circles..difficult...
Other Thoughts

Morton Assembly Tray by CarrieZ on October 29, 2008 5 stars
Pros
Really makes a difference when doing 3D projects. Once my pieces were ready i had an icosahedron put together in minutes.
Cons
Large pieces tend to have too much weight hanging out and the pieces don't always want to stay in so well.
Other Thoughts
Would be nice if they made this in more then one size, or if you were able to buy sections in bigger sizes for larger projects.

Speed Balls by CarrieZ on October 29, 2008 4 stars
Pros
These really do make it easier to slide glass across the grid. With the beetle bits system i tend to catch the edge of the glass on the grid seems. These balls lift the glass up enough to prevent them from catching. The description says to place the balls in the grid along the score line but i have them in various places and it really helps even more.
Cons
Don't lose the rubber cap for moving the balls around, it really is convenient.
Other Thoughts

Mastercraft 60/40 Solder - 1 lb. by CarrieZ on October 29, 2008 5 stars
Pros
Just like the description says, smooth flow and polishes nicely. I prefer this because it melts at a lower temp then 50/50.
Cons
No cons.
Other Thoughts
I love buying a few of these at a time because I cant buy them local. Even after shipping this is still cheaper then buying lead free at the hardware store.

Bullseye Light Coral Transparent Striker Thin - 90 COE by helix3d (top contributor) on October 29, 2008 5 stars
Pros
Gorgeous color that can be deepened by adding additional layers.
Cons
Until it is fired it is clear (or nearly clear). Easy to get scraps mixed up with clear glass.
Other Thoughts
I keep my small scraps separate and mark my large pieces to avoid mixing them up with clear glass.
