We use our diamond carbide abrasive wheels facilitates the sharpening of all of the carbide tools. Our carbide scoring wheels are more efficient than any other wheels and widely prized for perfect cutting and scoring of the glass.

The glass is first lubricated along the cutting line with a light oil. The glass cutter is then pressed firmly against the surface of glass and a line is scribed to form a "score" or "cut".

The glass is now weakened by this score and the panel is ready to be split along the scored line. The score is then "run" or "opened" to extend the split using running pliers, or by carefully applying pressure (exactly under the score) on the bottom side of the glass using a straight edge or a wedge directly under the score and pressing evenly on each side.
