There are 25 stop blocks in each pack.

Questions & Answers

Is it possible to use these blocks without nailing them together? In my studio, I like to use long tacks. ?

I worked in the business with my father, two brothers, and three employees on most days. We used 1 1/2 inch to 2 inch finish nails, and if a block was required, a scrap of 3/16 lead came worked just as well. I've personally installed thousands of windows.

Selected User Reviews For Lead and Glass Stop Blocks

When ordering from Amazon, one must exercise extreme caution
3/5

The product photo is VERY deceiving. I was under the impression that these came with nails as well, but they only cost ten dollars. You only get 25 tiny pieces of plastic after paying $75 and tax. On Amazon, I'm seeing an increase in this kind of deceptive product representation. The fact that the nails are not included should be stated prominently beneath the product photo. It's a good product, and I'm sure it'll do the job, but it's not worth $10. I would have paid no more than 3 or 4 dollars for these, and even then, without the nails, I would not have bought them.

These are extremely useful when it comes to putting together stained-glass projects
5/5

I've been making leaded stained glass for a long time and decided to give these a try. You can use the design to hold either a piece of glass or a piece of lead in place. It's as if you've got a second pair of hands. This book comes highly recommended.

Make sure you don't throw your money away
3/5

Don't waste your money; they will send you a small pack with insufficient stops to construct a window. Overpriced in my opinion.

I am pleased with my purchase
4/5

I'm new to stained glass and am working with lead for the first time. Instead of using tacks to block my pieces, a friend suggested I try these. They're fantastic! Thank you for making such a difference at such a low cost.

I am a beginner when it comes to leaded stained glass, and this is a very useful tool for me
5/5

The introductory class I took did not use these helpful little stop blocks, but they should have. I strongly advise you to purchase them.

It is both a necessity and a useful tool
5/5

It's a lot easier to work with flat sheets or pieces. Even curved pieces are securely held in place. Also, no edges were marred when the holds were put in place. As needed, I'll purchase more.

Holding pieces in place is a breeze with this
5/5

I debated whether or not to try these for quite some time. I couldn't go back once I'd done it. Definitely useful for keeping pieces in place while ensuring that everything fits together properly.

Your glass should be saved
5/5

These blocks allow you to keep your project nice and tight without having to worry about clamming. During the assembly, the glass was shelled or the lead was nicked. When working with irregular shapes that don't have a square corner to work with, this tool comes in handy. With all the nails, soldering becomes a little more difficult, but it is possible.
