Product Description

Save Time and Cut Like a Pro!
For years, Delphi customers and instructors have used the Morton Tool System to make glass cutting quicker, easier and more accurate. With the Portable Glass Shop, which includes an instructional guide, you can teach yourself how to cut glass like a pro. The Portable Glass Shop allows you to cut geometric shapes easily over and over again. Just measure once, then cut two or two hundred pieces - all identical to the original. Finish the job with the Safety Break System to achieve perfect breaks. Use with your favorite glass cutter, sold separately. 

Kit Includes:

  • Portable Glass Shop (item #7163B): a must-have tool for all glass crafters. Makes cuts fast and accurate. Cuts triangles, rectangles, diamonds and any other geometric shape easily.
  • Two of the Morton Mini Surface Plus - 2 Pack (item #7125): for a total of four interconnecting grids measuring 11-1/4" x 15-3/4" each, give you the freedom to construct the size and shape of your work surface. This convenient cutting surface keeps your work space safe and clean by allowing glass slivers to fall into the grid cells below, away from your hands. Flip the cutting surface over and you have a tracing surface for pattern pieces.
  • Safety Break System (item #7162): two buttons and two blocks (wear one around your neck with the attached lanyard). Place a score line over the button and apply gentle pressure with block. The results are amazing. You'll run the score from end to end for a perfect break with no rough or flared edges.

  •   Excellent!
By on
Pros : easy to use fun
Cons : Instructions are a little confusing, must have adequate space
Other Thoughts : This is one awesome set! I purposely waited to cut diamonds until I got this set. I struggled in the beginning with the instructions and explanations but once I watched a couple of videos, it was a snap to learn. I made perfect strips, squares, triangles, and diamonds in a very short amount of time. I have struggled with this for years, I am wondering why I didn't buy this sooner and avoid all the struggle.

  •   Good quality product
By on
Pros : Very well made. Plenty of accessories to start with.
Cons : Lots of assembly details that could most likely be paired down to a simpler form.
Other Thoughts : I think someone needs to review the assembly/use instructions to see if it could be made much simpler. Otherwise a good product

My commuting jacket is drying over a kitchen chair, and the cat has come down off the workbench to sniff the sleeve with deep suspicion. Fair enough. Theres a stripe of brown grit up the back, the kind wet roads and mashed leaves throw up all autumn.That grit ends up on brakes too. So heres a short pre-winter check for Defiant riders. Im working from general technique and the JupiterBike product listings, not from my own bike.Why autumn chews through brake padsQuick jargon check. On a disc brake, a metal disc called the rotor is fixed to the wheel hub. Two pads squeeze it to slow you down. They sit in a caliper, the clamp that straddles the rotor.Wet roads carry grit and leaf mush onto the rotor. When you brake, that grit gets trapped between pad and rotor and works like sandpaper, so the same commute wears pads faster
