I make a lot of frit for fusing, but buy my lampwork frit. I use the pipe and pounding plunger method. I first tried the galvinized pipe parts from Home Depot, but got a lot of crud from the pipe, and also metal pieces, so dirty frit. I then went to my electrical supply and purchased stainless steel parts. I've used it for 4 or 5 years now, and still don't have to clean the glass. Works for me. Those seives from McMaster will be my next buy. Expensive, but they look like they are worth the money.
