Pros
This is a fabulous cutter! It takes me less than a quarter of the time to cut the neck off a bottle compared to any other method I have used. It has saved me a ton of time. I highly recommend this tool!

Cons
There are no cons of that I have found.

Other Thoughts
It works very nicely on different size bottles without any problem. It's fabulous!

Pros
The mold is easy to work with and provides a nice finished product with very little work.. A full fuse and a slump is all that is needed

Cons
The mold size is not a true 12x12, it is actually 11 3/4 x 11 3/4. You will need to cut a 1/4 inch off each side of a 12 x 12 piece of glass. It is sometimes difficult to cut off such a slender piece. It would be nice if you did not have to do this and the mold was a true 12 x 12. If you do not do this, your mold is subject to cracking as the glass cools because it has wrapped over the edges of the mold. Knowing this beforehand can prevent this from happening.

Pros
I use these on most fused earrings. Well made product that lets earrings hang correctly.

Cons
Dealing with small components is always somewhat clumsy but there's no cure for that. I just set up a couple dozen at a time and glue away.

Other Thoughts
Larger packs of 48 or even a gross would be helpful.

Pros
These are really mini. If you produce small pieces they're ideal. Very nice finish on the metal, blends into the background. Gives just a little height and shows the piece nicely.

Cons
Too small for most of my work.

Other Thoughts
Sad some of the larger sizes were discontinued.

Pros
Perfect height for display at shows or in the client's home. Unobtrusive to let your work been seen at its best. Nice finish that blends into the background.

Cons
Ends up being slightly pricey if included with a lower priced fused piece.

Other Thoughts
Glad I ordered a few of the larger sizes before they were discontinued. The mini is too small for most of my work but it is also very nice.

Pros
I've owned a few bottle cutters. This is by far the best. Very stable, nice consistent score. And the FAST FAST FAST response I received from Ray at Cutter's Mate made me even happier. I inquired about an adjustment for my specific needs. Ray immediately got back to me and felt my solution should work. Looking forward to owning several more Creator's/Cutters products.

Cons
None.

Other Thoughts

Pros
Fast, accurate, easy to use with a little practice. Little or no waste of foil. I have two, one for black backed and one for regular foil. For larger pieces and straight pieces it keeps the foil perfectly centered. This tool will cut your foiling time in half. You still have to burnish, but it's easy when your foil is centered on the edge. If you do stained glass you need a table foiler.

Cons
The small pieces still have to be hand foiled, and you can't do tight indentations.

Other Thoughts
If you find some of the rolls are a little sticky on the table of the foiler just cut a piece of paper the same size as the roll of foil before you put the foil in the three holders and let the foil spin on the paper. With the paper "washer" the foil never sticks to the table.

Pros
I use this mold with beer bottles-clear definitely are nicer. I recommend devitrification liquid on the bottles before firing to prevent dullness-I am thrilled with the nice shiney clearness of the bottles, even if they have the rubbing on the shoulders......highly recommend this mold-product makes great spoon rests and sells well.

Cons
None!!

Other Thoughts
See above

Pros
Ah, this a reverently detailed mold...that if I pay attention to the subtle detail can indeed create a wonderful gift for others, including myself. 1st try too subtle, but enough detail to want to try again & again. This will be one of my favorite molds....due to obtainable details.

Cons
Not an easy casting mold. Need to pay attention to color layering to ensure the beautiful design is prominently attained.

Other Thoughts
Lovely design. Makes a very inspirationally supportive gift.

Pros
I love this glass. I find that if you are careful when you cut and break the glass that there are really very few problems with the backing chipping. I use it in mosaic projects only, and I score it into tiny pieces. The backing combined with the clear glass on top gives it depth.

Cons
None really.

Other Thoughts
I would not use it with a grinder or in windows.

Pros
Removes oxidation from solder providing a bright surface to apply patina. Its soft enough that it won't scratch the glass, yet hard enough to polish lead. Doesn't leave particles that can rust like steel wool. Its an 'expendable' - but nevertheless lasts through numerous projects. I view it as an essential.

Cons
A bit too course to get some of the nicks and crannies in the solder. Would be better if it were finer, like steel wool.

Other Thoughts

Pros
Attractive and affordable chain. Will definitely order more.

Cons
Bails or channels through the glass must be fairly large to accommodate the clasp end.

Other Thoughts
A selection of lengths would be nice.

Pros
at 1460 it shines beautifully with some cracking which enhances the attractiveness of the glass.

Cons
Takes longer to slump. Use a longer slump schedule.

Other Thoughts
Wish it were cheaper.
