Here's a tip from an old glazier, replace your safety circle with a safety triangle and it will all simply fall out, this will eliminate the need or risk of having to break out the second circle and it's quicker.

Great video. I cut a cat flap into a old patio door today. Everything appeared to be going ok until I discovered it wasn't a single pane of glass, it was two panes with plastic sandwiched between them. It isn't pretty under there and took a couple of hours but I managed to chip it away to the outer circle and the flap covered it all up. Mum was happy and will never know but OMG was it a messy ball ache - be careful out there people.

Hi Daud, I think you would struggle to do this in 12 mm glass, it is possible but I have never done it in glass that thick, if you are going to cut 12 mm glass just make sure it is not toughened as this cannot be cut.

Thank you for this... and help me pray today.. I bought a HUGE glass cabinet to build a paludarium.. 140cmx120cmx50.. And i need to cut a 15cm hole into the side to be able to reach the electronics after it is set up... I might have taken a little to large of a bite to chew because i cant lay it flat to cut a hole into it.. but ok,, it either works or it cracks and the whole thing will have to go to the scrapyard haha.. Thank you for this video very clear explenation, ill try and go about it like you showd,, thanks again

How'd it go lol. I want to try this on my PC cases side panel because my CPU cooler is just barely too wide for my new case, so the case is just slightly open at the top, I mean it still works and is able to look like it's closed but I want to cut a perfect circle around the CPU air cooler so I can put the side panel all the way on XD. spent 2100 bucks on all these parts and don't wanna get a new case cuz I like it.

Thank you! Upon watching your video, I assume that you need to "tap" the scored glass circle on the underside of the glass. Meaning on the opposite side that you scored with the glass cutter (like I see in the video). I am cutting a circle on one pane of a double-pane window glass and the underside is not accessible. Does this explain why it doesn't work when I tap the scored side? Best Regards, p.s. It might explain some of the questions you were previously getting.?.? The circle is my first step at breaking and removing the glazed in defective pane. IT IS NOT AN IGU! Tnx!

I have an old aquarium that is going to now be a vivarium. The tank is 5 foot long. The glass is 12mm thick. I want to cut out a 2 foot x 10 inch long rectangle, down from the top - so I only have to make 3 cuts, the 2 foot along the bottom of the rectangle and the 2 sides @ 10 inches. I have various sized glass cutting bits. I have a glass scorer. Would I be able to grind 2 holes, 10 inches from the top and 2 foot apart, then score between the holes, then score from the holes up to the top and then just tap it out? Hope that makes sense. Admittedly, there's possibly some wishful thinking going on. Thank you. Andrew

@frankMIALL2 жыл бұрын
Not bad please excuse me. I have been cutting many years. From me you need to change that wheel in circle Cutter, you need to apply less pressure on the cut, you need to use cutting oil, you need to use a oil filled cutter again less pressure, for me I use the rubgy ball saftey lines technique, I turn the glass and use pressure to open the cut rather then hitting the hole open like that,, the Chris Cross lines must be with oil, as before a new cutter will open cut lines easyier and thus glass with fall with ease and put less pressure on vent hole, for me the rugby ball lines act as safety lines, tap the middle and work middle first so not to have shells. Much appreciated for video. You got it out, 😉
