The secret in Nick's Grinder Mate is the powerful spring and rubber jaws that grip the glass. Nick's Grinder Mate will securely hold pieces as small as ¼" and up to 4 square inches. Unlike grinder tongs, you don't have to squeeze the handles while you grind to hold the glass in place. Once you place the glass in the Grinder Mate's jaws, it holds it securely until you move it.

This tool has a large circular base, that holds your glass level to the work surface so that your edges are always straight. Also, when using Nick's Grinder Mate, you can grind effectively while you sit or stand, whichever is the most comfortable for you.

As you can see from the photo, using a Nick's Grinder Mate is an effective way to keep your fingernails away from the grinder head. There's no reason why glass craftsmen should have ugly hands!

A tool like Nick's Grinder Mate can make you the envy of all your friends when they think of how sore their fingertips get after grinding little pieces. It also makes a wonderful gift!
