Cons
None.
Other Thoughts
The metal is sturdy and this is perfect to complement your upcycled bottle latern.
Pros
I use these brushes all the time. They are a staple in my stained glass studio. I use them for applying patina and throw them away when I finished. I cut the bristles shorter so they work better for me. I also use them for spreading on glue and sometimes for flux. I like to get the box of 144 - they are a good value and last longer.
Cons
For my use, I can't find any cons.

Pros

Other Thoughts
I used the shelf wash recommended. 8 coats the first time and dried between each. set in oven for a bit to further dry. Had no problem popping out the fired items after cooling. Using 4 coats thereafter.
Pros
Really helps with projects requiring tiny pieces. Just finished a glass picture frame that required odd-shaped tiny pieces, and this tool saved my fingertips.
Cons
None
Other Thoughts
I've had this for years but haven't had to use it that often. My recent mosaic projects have made me turn to it again. It truly saves wear on the fingers and allows control of tiny pieces when grinding so they don't suddenly fly across the room. It's a great tool.
Pros
I'm new at working with glass and I was able to complete the project without any real problems. I'm going to get refills and complete three more for my children's families.
Cons
I read the instructions several times and didn't have any problems.
Other Thoughts
The thought of a kaleidoscope inside a biplane was fantastic. The Biplane is our family symbol. (From the song, "The Biplane Evermore")
Pros
Gorgeous cobalt blue when light streams through it; dark navy (almost black) without.
Cons
The muffle texture isn't as easy to cut as smooth glass, but I consider this a 'pro'...
Other Thoughts
Pros
Clear with a very pale, wispy blue; the even texture makes it super easy to cut. Using this for a very pale sky in my projects.
Cons
None
Other Thoughts
Pros
Bargain price! They leave a pretty smoothly ground edge.
Cons
I prefer Standard grit for stained glass (this Fine grit might be a little too fine)... but if you're a little less impatient or more accurate when you cut glass, you'll probably love these. Ha! :-D
Other Thoughts
Pros
Perfect for "cutting into" inside curves in stained glass. You can even create an inside corner with these. :-)
Cons
Too coarse for jewelry making or mosaics; this grit is coarse enough to cause little micro-chips along the ground edge of your glass.
