- Just a vid of me, cutting out a circle from 1/4" plate glass.
It's a bit boring, I know, since I decided not to give a play-by-play of what I was doing, and instead just cut the glass while letting you look over my shoulder.
What can I say: sometimes I just don't feel like listening to myself talk. - Jak na to + styl
WOW!!! You are The Glass Whisperer!!!! ;-)
Great vid. Why don't you slice from the circle to the edge of the glass on all 4 sides? Wouldn't the smaller chunks make it much easier to remove?
Do you have a video of sanding the edges?
Unfortunately I don't, and I no longer work there.
Sigh.
I wish now that I'd recorded more of the projects I worked on; some of them were pretty strange/interesting.
Etaukan I see. I am hesitant to use a power sander on glass, but hand sanding seems to be arduous.
By the way, Jesus is the Lord and the only way to heaven. God bless.
where do u get ur glass from im trying to get some 3/8inch thick glass and i cant find anyplace:(
How thick is the glass?
That's 1/4 inch plate.
does the small radial cut start exactly at the circle cut, or a little short of it?
A little short of it; a break in glass will jump a short distance to another break or to the edge of the glass. Trying to score it all the way to the circle cut risks making a little nick in the circle, which (on a bad day) might be all it takes for the the whole circle to crack in half when you stress it.
not boring at all - its a great skill - great vid - many thanks
