what are the pink stones used for and can they be used for etching glass also?

I use the pink stones for sharpening knives and tools. The operators manual says they are either aluminum oxide grinding stones or silicon carbide grinding stones, the second of which is said to be good for grinding and shaping very hard materials such as glass. As for my personal experience with it on glass, it does work but not for anything needing deep engraving or fine lines or for any precision. I recomend getting a set of diamond encrusted engraving bits I got like a set of 20 for like five bucks and they are good for almost anything and if I remember correctly this comes with at least one of those. Hope this helps

If you are putting them on your nails you can just put them directly onto slightly wet nail polish or put a drop of clear polish on the nail and then put a stone. If you are planning on putting them on something else you can use a small drop of glue, they don't have their own adhesive, since I believe they are mostly used for nail art. Hope this helps answer your question. :-)

If you look at some stained glass websites, you can find a 1/4 cone or chisel tip for fine work. I just use the edge of the stock tip for detailed jobs and it works well.

I don't know. Sorry I can help you with that. I only use it for glass and plastic etchings.

I use the one I purchased for making silver & crystal pendants as the slightly broader flame can heat my piece more evenly with it's broader flame. The only times I used it on glass, the glass would crack if it was over about 4mm, both as was heating it and as it was cooling. Hope this helps

There are certain nail art glue, but why complicate things! I use the clear nail polish to dip the stones in them and glue them I also use any liquid glue of those school supply as long as it doesn't touch my nails directly. Don't use strong super glues.. Just the ones used for kids art work.

I really don't know because I just used mine on glass blocks but they are so inexpensive that you have little to loose by buying them and trying. They worked great on glass and it was easier that I expected.

Although it would work, I think it could weaken the structural integrity of the glass. Abrasive etching would be a better solution.

Generally there are two common types of honing stones, aluminum oxide and silicon carbide. If you have a more specific reason for asking I will try to help with a more detailed answer.

I don't know I never used them for glass...and I can't try it 'cause I don't have the kit anymore

No Clue. I used these to add a basic stained glass effect to an antique window shutter. Sorry I didn't use them for a photography application. And there are no instructs included with these.

Hi from New Zealand and the question should really be , not what can I do with them but do I really need them for the type of Dremel work I am already doing. I'm a typical Gemini and have loads of fun trying many many craft styles. Best use for these is for glass and bone carving/polishing etc. They would probably be useful for smoothing out any chips in your bakelite projects. I recently drilled some 5mm diam holes in laminated glass and with the odd squirt of water to cool burr and flush away the ground glass they did a mighty good job with little sign of wear even after some 20 holes. My main use is for detailing seaglass trinkets. Good luck in retirement. Barry p.s. I'm not an expert!!!

My wife drills small stones and sea glass with a Dremel bit #7144. Any drill bit with a diamond tip end should do it. Depending on how think the rock is, the drill bits won't last too long.

don't know if that is possible, but would imagine with the right equipment you could etch or engrave - fyi, they are glass, not crystal

This tool only vibrates. It's good for stone or metal engraving, but not very useful for glass. Hope this helps.
