Parallel Closing Flatteners / Mashers

These mashers are so easy to use! One could turn a rather large gather of glass into a flat maria or flatter disk for a carb cap in a few seconds.

They do the job but the wood handles came unglued withing the first few months, the rust like crazy and they are not truly parallel.

i used to think that i didnt need these until i used a pair that my buddy had. really digging these mashers

I do not like the quality on these, the wood handle already popped off and does not mash evenly. Compared to the ones in my shop I am disappointed. Perhaps the other ones MGA carries is a better quality

The welds are shawdy. The handle came in still rough needed to be smoothed out with sandpaper before use. Pretty parralel but you get what you pay for in this. Spend the extra buck and buy the better version

Making a pendant with these is so much easier. Flatten your glass and add a a different color love these.

These are good for a cheep set of masher. If you want a set of mashers the won’t rust or have the handles fall off over time buy higher quality and Buy AMERICAN! They are not sold as parallel mashers, those are expensive! You get what you pay for. Mine work fine after a year.

These get the job done, but they're not a quality tool. Like others, I had to reattach the handles using epoxy. They also rust quickly and eat up a lot of wax.
