Shawn, so glad you are going public with your tools. I love the ones I have bought from you at Glass stock ( Leaf masher and texture tool). Question about the arrowhead. What do you attach it to? I don't expect shipping to canada could be free. Can you give me and idea on that cost? I actually have a washington address i could send it to but then have to drive 5 hours to get it. By the way all the help you gave me on my connections has REALLY helped. Can't thank you enough

Thanks and you're very welcome for the help, Donna!
The arrowhead marver comes with an attachment mount. You can attach it to any base (a block of wood, metal, or directly to your worktable). I'll be providing a version that comes with a base shortly, but it will add about $10 to the price. I suggest mounting it directly below your torch. You can then slide it out of the base mount for any handheld paddle work you might want to do, and then back in for anything you'd otherwise need three hands to do.
Right now I only have shipping set up to the US, but I'll be happy to look up shipping to anywhere in the world and make a special listing for you. I recommend priority mail - the small flat rate box will fit it nicely. Donna, I wouldn't want you to have to drive that far unless you were coming down to Washington anyhow.

Hi Shawn - do you have any other pictures of leaves made with the leaf masher? It's hard to tell how deeply veined the press is with the picture in the listing.

I'll try to get a few more photos. That's a great suggestion. But to answer your implied question, YES this leaf masher makes more deeply veined leaves than many of the others I've seen.

Hey Shawn -is there any real difference, like say, "gap" between the ability of either pair of leaf mashers or can both leaf masher plates actually meet/press any thickness of glass so there's no gap between the leaf plates? (sorry, having trouble expressing what I'm trying to ask - forgive me, two brain surgeries has my wording a little scrambled).

No, I think I know what you are asking. There are actually two versions of the leaf mashers. One is the needle nosed pliers. That one is best if you only plan on making thin leaves. If you think you might want BOTH thick and thin leaves, then go with the other set - it can be set to EITHER meet for thin delicate leaves OR press a thicker leaf and remain parallel.

That's one of my favorite tools, too.
