Pros
The roll is great for storage in a small shop. The paper can be reused for a second firing. Easy to clean up.
Cons
Texture is not quite as smooth as thin fire. No other negatives.
Other Thoughts
I agree with the comment posted regarding a cutting blade on the box. It would make this produce much easier to handle.
Pros
These are beautiful crosses and easy to put together. This is my second order.

Pros
I have been using Gemini saws for 20 years. When my most recent Taurus II.2 bit the dust I purchased the Taurus 3. Wow! What a huge improvement over the old saw. Immediately it was noticably quieter than my old saws. And it cuts so much faster and smoother than any saw I have ever had. I also found it much easier to clean since the saw detaches from the tub. I have not yet needed to change the blade but from watching the video instructions it appears to be much less effort than with the II.2. The instructional video that came with the saw is a scream! It won't win any academy awards but It is informative and entertaining; beats the heck out of reading an instruction manual!
Cons
Cost is still pretty steep.
Other Thoughts
Wish I had gotten this saw a long time ago instead of limping along with my old saw which had served me well but had seen better days.
Pros
While chatting with a Delphi Glass Expert, Steena, she suggested I use Mark Stay to keep the lines on the glass while grinding. It works wonderful. Love It! Very Successful! I only wish I had this right from the start.
Cons
none
Other Thoughts
I can't say enough about how this little jar of wax has helped me tremendously! Thanks, Delphi for such a wonderful product & Thanks, Steena.
Pros
More precise cuts, cutting shapes that would be impossible by hand without making more pieces or lines in areas that you don't want pieced. Shapes like doves, flowers, etc are easy to cut & I find there is less grinding using the Taurus Saw. One of the best purchases I have made!
Cons
N/A
Other Thoughts
I just bought the separable blade to experiment more with different projects....get more creative!
Pros
I just use the leaf impression mold to make a coaster. It turned out fantastic and it was very easy to use. I simply put two pieces of glass together with the mold on top of it and fire to a full fuse. I was extremely pleased!
Cons
For me there were no cons.
Other Thoughts
Delphi should consider making more of these molds. They're great. It would be nice to have a rose,a snowman and a heart for example.
Pros
I order a pack almost every week there are ever just repeat peices. The variety and quality is amazing. It's an outstanding purchase. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Pros
I used the horse impression mold and it turned nice, except for the air bubbles created by the fact that the horse caused weight on the glass and would not let the glass have a true bubble squeeze.
Cons
There was no idication of how much frit to use in either grams or ounces like other casting molds I have used from other companies.
Other Thoughts
Next time I make this I will tack fuse the two pieces of glass for the bottom before putting together the dish to eliminate the bubbles in the glass around the horse.
Pros
Total perfect for my project. Loved every piece.
Cons
1 piece had a mis-score... very minor
Other Thoughts
More packs please! I need purple!
Pros
This grinder does everything. I am new to stained glass and am so glad I purchased the All Star G8. I love the mini deck that makes it so easy to grin small pieces.
Cons
The grinder could use an extra small grinder bit to be included with the other two bits.
Other Thoughts
Great addition to my work bench.
Pros
All the beginning tools you need to enjoy a new hobby.
