Don't forget you need proper ventilation AND cover all cuts if you are working with lead.

Ventilation to cut glass?

[@sophiedowney1077]

​@@bleeka325so you don't breathe in the tiny glass shards that are sprayed into the air when the glass cracks. That could cause real problems, like cutting the tiny air sacs(alveoli) that actually let you bring air from your lungs to your blood vessels. Always use a mask when working with any particulate matter that won't break down safely.

[@iloveyouiwantyouseokmattchu]

don't worry, it's perfectly safe! in fact, you don't actually NEED gloves for glass cutting -- it's all based on the level of skill and the comfort of the person. all other safety precautions are necessary, though.

[@FlaccidAcid]

What were the gloves for

[@sleepy.timaeus.arts.]

for beginners who arent used to handling broken glass

[@m__nl_ght2573]

​@@sleepy.timaeus.arts. still not a good idea.. especially beginners should not wear gloves so they can learn how to handle glass and the cutter properly

[@ruysan7790]

​@@m__nl_ght2573 When you are a beginner you should practice how to use the tools without handling any glass. When you know how to use the tools you should move on to the glass using gloves. Once you have a good handle on the glass you can start using thinner gloves or stop using them. But you should always use gloves and glasses as a beginner

[@lucyleptonyx5858]

My mom loves to make stain glass art but she never has the time or motivation to do it between her job and her family. The first time I learned about this interest was when she helped my stepdad make one as a birthday present for his sister, and she hasn't done it since. She's so excited to possibly retire next year, and with the grandkids grown, she'll have more time to create ❤

[@andreajade541]

beginners and ppl who are prone to cutting themselves should definitely wear safety gloves. however, professionals or experienced people don't because they'd rather feel what they're working on directly instead. like how other people would use laundry gloves when scrubbing clothes to avoid dermatitis or touching harmful/itchy chemicals in soaps ot bleach. more confident people prefer washing clothes w their bare hands so they can scrub surfaces of the fabric better because they can feel stuff like hardened stains. edit: another good reason is that sometimes, it's safer to not use gloves. i'm pretty sure there's an explanation related to stained glass making, but an example of this is not wearing gloves when handling chemicals in a laboratory, especially acids, because when your skin comes in contact with strong acid, you can easily wash them off, but if it melts your gloves, your gloves may adhere to your skin.

I'm unsure how you feel about loud noises, personally I also hate that noise but do like loud music and shit so this is just based on what I would do but- maybe try a hybrid pair of noise cancelling headphones, they cancel noise (obviously) and can play music!

You can also make it even safer and less sharp while cutting under water. If you get a big enough bin and fill it with water, you can use scissors to cut the glass. It will always cut super easy due to the slowing of vibrations thanks to the water. As well as come out smooth and you can get the details more quickly around the shape. Hope this helps as well.

Hey love there are different Typs of Glas cutters. What you are Right now using is a standard one. There are ones with a much thiner Head and no moving Head.

It also helps if you put water in the score line. I have no idea why this generally gets a better line, but it does. I have used spit. I am not very artistic but I do lab work and I have to cut glass from time to time

I guess people learn it differently, but at my school, we dont use gloves, and we cut up to down not down to up.

I personally prefer to break glass by hand. But if you are using running pliers, don't hold onto the glass. If the glass shatters because you didn't score it right, you're likely to hurt yourself.

If you want to try an...interesting thing. You can cut glass underwater with scissors. Just submerge the glass and scissors in a large tub and cut like paper. The glass doesnt cut like paper but does flake off quickly. You can get surprisingly exotic shapes Very quickly and easily. Though the usual scoring is still quicker for straight lines.

[@darkraven5424]

To the people who don't understand: This video is for beginners, that's why she's recommending the safety gloves. But she is not a beginner, and like most experienced glass workers, she doesn't wear gloves. The more experienced you get, the more comfortable you are. She's spoken about her reasons for not wearing safety gloves, mainly that they get in the way and can make it harder for her to get exact cuts. However, if you are a beginner, use gloves because you don't have the muscle memory needed to work on glass without cutting yourself.
