Powder Pro Plus vs a Frit Shovel

[@FiredGlass]

Have you used a Powder Pro Plus? How did you find it to use?

[@sallycurtis3485]

My OH bought me one for Xmas. I'd never seen one before and wasn't sure how much I'd use it but it's been really useful and I'm sure I'll use it more often as I practice with it. Thanks for the video, it's given me some new ideas already 🙂

[@FiredGlass]

@@sallycurtis3485 well done to your other half! I'm pleased to hear you've found it a useful tool and we've sparked some new ideas too. We have another project video coming up soon where Jill has used it for flamingo legs and waves in the sea! What a mix! Thanks for watching.

[@annettepayne822]

In Australia we have NOTHING! It’s so sad seeing how many fantastic products there are for well America first but the UK and Europe so spoilt for choice.

[@FiredGlass]

@@annettepayne822 that's frustrating. I guess you can get stuff shipped but the cost and timeframes probably make it cost prohibitive. 😒

[@patsymonk2959]

Thank you! I am a tool ‘junkie’. They are there to make things easier & I am all for that! Keep up the great information 😉

[@FiredGlass]

They are an invaluable tool. Once you have one you wonder how you ever coped without it. I've heard that they are very difficult to obtain now. Many people have found no stock of them at their normal suppliers. Not sure why. Hope you manage to locate one.

[@donnapolly7203]

Absolutely love your videos!

[@FiredGlass]

Thanks Donna, good to hear.

[@AnnetteRintelmann]

Have not used powder yet, working up to it.

[@elizabethg223]

So glad I found you!! Thank you for sharing your expertise!!!!!

[@FiredGlass]

We're glad you found us! Thanks for subscribing. Plenty more videos to come.

[@couldwellbe4227]

Another very generous and helpful video. I’m a huge fan! Thank you so much 😊 👏👏

[@FiredGlass]

Glad to hear it was useful, thanks for watching.

[@annettepayne822]

Great looking branches thank you

[@FiredGlass]

Thanks Annette

I watched a couple of minutes of this video a couple of days ago and knew I had to have one! The version you have does not appear to be available in the US. Delphi Glass carries the Powder Vibe and I just received mine yesterday. This is made by Bearfoot Tools and I ordered the extra tips from there. Anyway. A video on Bearfoot Tools spoke about dividing the broad tip dispenser with a tiny strip of tape to make a double line of powder. I thought you might like to know about this if you don’t already. I really enjoy your videos and always learn something. Thank you for sharing

[@FiredGlass]

Ah good to know as the Powder Pro has been difficult to obtain. Good tip on the tape.

[@stephend7404]

Thank you!! Just got one and this helps me see the potential. :)

[@FiredGlass]

Oooh exciting. Glad we could help. There'll be no stopping you now!

[@maryparry7888]

Thanks, love your videos, just ordered the Powder Pro Plus and tips

[@FiredGlass]

Thanks for watching. Have fun being creative when your P3 arrives.

[@cindydouthit8029]

Where did you order it from? Are you in the states per chance?

[@FiredGlass]

@@cindydouthit8029 try www.aaeglass.com/ in Florida.

[@rareandwonderfull]

Very interesting. Thank you!

[@FiredGlass]

After releasing this video we had so many people trying to buy a vibe tool and couldn’t find stock of them. Quite frustrating for them.

[@rareandwonderfull]

@@FiredGlass Nearly anything can be bought online by those with a bank card and internet access, shipping may be high depending on destination. Perhaps a few source links may help those not accustomed to "ferreting out" things online?

[@FiredGlass]

We had already added where to buy them from in the description under the video.

[@rareandwonderfull]

@@FiredGlass My attention was riveted on your work, I didn't see you source info😆😆😆

[@FiredGlass]

In fairness it does depend on what device you are using to watch KZbin. Smartphones are sometimes tricky to view the description information contained under the video. It's much easier on a desktop computer.

[@cindydouthit8029]

I just discovered you and love your videos! I've subscribed now and rung the bell (another thing I didn't know about, sad to say, but something else I learned from you videos! :-) Now, I want a powder pro! How does it do for writing things on glass? Or, do you do something else if you want to do lettering on glass? If so, is that already a video? If not, could that be? ;-) Thanks for doing such wonderful videos!

[@FiredGlass]

Glad to hear you found us and subscribed, thank you. The Powder Pro can be used for lettering for sure providing you have a steady hand. It can do fine lines, tracing so lettering is certainly possible.

[@sandisloan7003]

I love mine and use it often but mine does not have the big round handle mine is just the gold attachment’s that you put the batteries in, where do I purchase one more like yours?

[@FiredGlass]

They seem tricky to obtain. We got ours from Warmglass sone years ago.

[@blenderbenderguy]

Definitely a handy tool but pretty spendy for all that it is. Plus it's another $30 for the extra tip set. Thanks for the intro and idea!

[@FiredGlass]

I guess you factor in how much you will use it. Infrequently then sure very expensive. Frequently then perhaps a better proposition.

[@rosannahenderson2268]

Hi, I love your videos and have leanrt a lot. I would love on of the Powder Pro Plus but cannot find anyone inn the UK that sells them. Warm Glass and Creative Glass Guild do not sell them, I have tried as both of these companies are my regular suppliers. Any advice please. Thanks you, Rosanna

[@FiredGlass]

They are like rocking horse stuff. I don't believe they are manufactured anymore.

[@rosannahenderson2268]

@@FiredGlass That is such a shame as you have got me hooked on this brilliant little gadget - had set my heart on getting one!

[@karenmehos9244]

Would you please tell me where you purchased the different tips for your powder pro? I have a powder vibe and it only came with one, very fine tip.

[@FiredGlass]

Our tips came from the same supplier where we got the Powder Pro Plus (P3) from. The Powder Vibe is a different product, so not sure if the tips are interchangeable. Best speak to your supplier in your area as I don't know where in the world you are based.

[@karenmehos9244]

@@FiredGlass Thank you, and thank you for such great tutorials. I was pleasantly surprised with my first attempt at using my powder vibe.

[@adriennehunt1799]

Where do you get the Powder Pro, the frit shovel & powder tool? I'll be the most popular student in my glass class at Ku-ring-gai Art Centre in Sydney's northern suburbs if I manage to get these.😁

[@FiredGlass]

Hi Adrienne, I've just responded to your question you left on the mackerel project video, I would try the same place. The Creative Glass guild certainly hold all those items.

[@adriennehunt1799]

@@FiredGlass Thank you for replying so quickly. I shall Google this company's name.

[@ritafusedglassbyrital644]

Where can I purchase the powder pro?

[@FiredGlass]

Hi Rita, not sure where in the world you are based. We're UK based and we can get it from WarmGlass or The Creative Glass Guild to name a few. Google is your friend. Search for Powder Pro Plus P3 and locate a supplier near you wherever you are in the world. Check on the tips you get with it, they used to supply it with three tips, but now it's often just the one and you buy the others as a separate pack.

[@shardzartglass-margaretsea1145]

Where can I get a powder pro? Love your channel!!!!

[@FiredGlass]

Thank you for watching Margaret. Powered Pro Plus (P3) are available from Warm Glass and The Creative Glass Guild in the UK. In the USA try AAE Glass in Flordia.

[@shardzartglass-margaretsea1145]

Thanks you for your amazingly quick response!!!!!!!

[@Debbie-rx6tb]

Where do we get the power pro?

[@FiredGlass]

They are like hen’s teeth it seems. There’s suggestions in the video description of places to try. But remember this video a years old now.

[@mellisa9459]

I wish someone could sell a powder pro in the USA.

[@FiredGlass]

Hi Mellisa, it’s made in the USA. Try aaeglass.com in Florida

[@janen2683]

I tried to order from AAE, but they don’t carry them anymore. I wish I could find one in a stock somewhere in the US 🥲

[@mellisa9459]

I am googling it now.
