Been researching stained glass quilts as I plan on doing at least seven of them (replicas of the stained glass windows depicting the sages in a Zelda video game) and its on my resolution list to get one of them done this year.

No matter what one I'll end up doing this year there will be a lot of bias in different sizes for the leading, probably going as thin as 1/4". I really want to get one of those mini irons (I think Clover makes one) for that purpose....they have a small tip in the shape of an iron that's connected to a rod. But I haven't found very many of them and the ones I did were like $30 and that's not including the shipping. I know I'm pretty nieve about quilting supply prices and what's considered the norm or a deal, but it seems a bit silly to me that this miniture iron costs twice as much as my regular one.

Is $30 pretty standard for these mini irons or do they come cheaper and I just haven't found it yet?
