Pros
This saw has given me the opportunity to make more detailed projects. I can cut the curviest shapes with ease and minimal grinding. I cannow cut my projects in minutes vs hours of etching and braking glass to get close to the shape then grind to final shape.
Cons
Needs better blade guides. they wear very fast.. Could use more space between the blade and the side where the blade travels. better drainage for water on the tray.
Other Thoughts
I love this saw even with the little cons I have.
Pros
Easy to Use
Frees your hands for work
Cons
Slight time delay between pressing and activation
Other Thoughts
I can't believe it took me decades to figure out I needed to buy one of these. This makes grinding glass so much easier and hastle free. I just walk up to the grinder with glass in hand, step on the pedal as I walk up, and by the time the glass hits to work surface it's at full RPM. Highly recommend!
Pros
Built in cutter
Super Easy to Configure Cuts
Cons
Only 1 Angle Cut Device
Other Thoughts
I have used another system for decades and bought this for my new outdoor studio which has limited space. Compared to the non-sense I have to do to do angle cuts in the other system, this system is a breeze. Also love the built in cutter. I waste a lot less time with setup using this system.
Pros
fits together perfectly, easy to add colors.
Cons
none
Other Thoughts

Pros
As a glass artist for over 40 years, I am always looking for new ways to work in glass in any form. This product provides endless possibilities only limited by your own artistic imagination. I have used this modeling clay to create large texured 2D piece, mosaic tile pieces, 3D sculptures, dimensional tiles, cutting free hand and with cookie cutters and much more. It is fun, easy to use for all ages and maybe initially dried in your kitchen oven. Dried creations may be set aside until you have enough to fill you kiln and then fired. The kit may be mixed with any COE that is offered in powdered frit. More fun than anyone should have creating treasures.
Cons
Transparent glass powdered frit does not translate as well as opaque frits.
