7 reviewsSmash up your scrap then separate it into individual grades of frit.
This set includes four sifting trays:
Don’t know why I waited so long to buy these , they are amazing.
Saves so much time , all nicely graded into pots.
Desperate to make my own frit and I looked at the various options. Smashing the glass in between paper in a plastic bag with a lump hammer seemed to be the cheapest option. I then needed some filters to grade the frit. I'm a totally loyal Warm Glass customer and whilst I was a bit worried that this set looked a bit small I thought I'd give it a go. Totally delighted that the actual "buckets" are the size of an outstretched palm!! Diameter 16cm and the wire filters are 11.5cm diameter. So easy to smash and filter a piece of 10cm x 10cm glass. Now going to spend hours using up my scrap glass into usable frit.
This is very useful but agree it would be better with a base pan, especially as the powder is the most hazardous part. I also had to fashion a makeshift lid, so I could give the sifter a good shake.
I've looked at these for a while and finally taken the plunge. Despite the size being on the page, I was surprised at how big these are.
I do agree that having no final catch-container that can be fitted to the bottom is a rather odd and annoying oversight, given the quality (and price!) of the sifters and that's why I've given them 4 stars, not 5.
Amazing, brilliant for making your own frit in varying sizes. could have done with a base tin for catching the powder, but that's not a difficult one to solve. Really effective product.
