The Morton System Makes Stained Glass Safe and Simple
The Morton System is an integrated set of
tools used to simplify difficult glass cuts, which allows a beginning
hobbyist or professional studio to easily make cuts in glass that are
difficult or impossible to accomplish with other tools. The special cutting
surface cells trap the glass chips, which will prevent your glass from
getting scratched and will provide you the ability to work safely with glass
anywhere without the mess. The special breaking system consists of a
pressure block with a concave undersurface used with a running button that
has a convex upper surface on top of an open grid surface. This
breaking system is safe to work with since glass is not broken by holding
the glass in your hands.

PORTABLE GLASS SHOP

The Portable Glass Shop allows you to make cuts fast and accurate. It cuts triangles, rectangles, diamonds and any other
geometric shape easily. Just measure one time, then cut two or a hundred pieces - all identical! A grid work surface is required, but not included. The
markings on your current Morton surface are easily modified to work with the Portable Glass Shop.
Video and Manuals are available online to make the learning easy and fun again. New features include a reversible Squaring Fence for
regular and thin art glass and fast angles in both metric and inch scales.
Includes the new "Cutter Slide" Bar which improves your cutting technique.
