Contemporary Fused Glass by Diane S on October 20, 2012 5 stars
Pros
Out of the 5 "how to fuse glass" books I have, I refer to this one the most. Not too much history or too much highly technical stuff like some of the others. Just what you need to understand the craft and do it!
Cons
Agree with the others: the price may deter many folks from purchasing.
Other Thoughts
Lots of great illustrations.

Other Thoughts
I wish that it came in hard copy. I would love to be able to physically touch it and share with my computer shy friends.

10-1/4" X 6-1/2" Spiral Buffet Plate Mold by StaceysLawnDecor (top contributor) on October 19, 2012 5 stars
Pros
Unique mold that looks great made with clear glass with a colored border.
Cons
Solid color glass does not show much detail of the swirl.
Other Thoughts
Wish there were more molds like this! Saves a step by not having to use a texture mold.

Far Out Tie Dye DichroMagic Decal Paper by Marshmellow on October 17, 2012 4 stars
Pros
Check out what I had to say about the freaky tie dye decal paper. Same applies.
Cons
Other Thoughts
If you order this, order more than one type. You will really enjoy using it!

Freaky Tie Dye DichroMagic Decal Paper by Marshmellow on October 17, 2012 4 stars
Pros
This is great to use either on top of or between layers of glass! It is easy to cut or punch and screams to be played with.
Cons
Someone had told me that she had problems with using it. I suspect she didn't fire at the right temperature. I went up to 1350, but one really doesn't know the best temp. to use.
Other Thoughts
At 1350, it is a high fire product, like other slide paper. Can be used with any COE. The colors were vivid after firing, but I would have liked to know the best temp to use. Not enough info given.

Hi-Temp 1800 Mold Release and Lubricant by cjb2008 (top contributor) on October 12, 2012 5 stars
Pros
Love this product. Purchased it and it sat on my shelf for 2 years. Finally used it on a stainless steel mold for candle holders. I get 2-3 uses before I have to recoat. I had no idea you could use on ceramic molds....definitely will be trying that next! I am so glad that we can write reviews on here, because I am constantly reviewing the products I buy, and honestly this product has been a god send for me this christmas crafting season. It is either buy multiple molds to meet demand, or speed up the processing time buy using a product such as this. Great price too compared to other spray products.
Cons
None so far.
Other Thoughts
Plan to use this on my fused bangle mold! The fusing paper is just way too difficult to use with this mold in comparison to the SLIDE!

Handy Foiler With Smooth Roller by Harleyartiste on October 11, 2012 5 stars
Pros

Cons
I only have one...just ordered 2 more :-D
Other Thoughts
I happened to meet its inventor who has a wonderful shop in my area. Way to go!!!!!

Cons
Other Thoughts
Love using it

Silver Plated Spiral Choker Neckwire - 2 Pack by ziabead (top contributor) on October 6, 2012 5 stars
Pros
Pleasantly surprised to receive a plated neckwire I don't have to apologize for. It does a nice job of imitating it's pricier sterling cousin. Screw ball makes it easy to use with most bails.
Cons
Plating will probably wear.
Other Thoughts
Don't know how thick the plating is, may wear quickly. I sell it honestly and the customer is forewarned that it is plate and may eventually show wear. Teach your customers to "twist" it open (not just pull ends apart) and they'll get more wear out of it.

Peace Sign Jewelry Mold by ziabead (top contributor) on October 6, 2012 4 stars
Pros
Good peace sign image. I've used the mold successfully twice so far, coated with MR-97.
Cons
Creates a massive,large to wear piece. I calculated 24 grams for a sturdy piece. Less seems too thin to be a durable piece of wearable art.
Other Thoughts
Fill weight info would have been nice. Happy to provide my own to the community.
