    the ball on the end of the tool is for tapping along the line that you just scored! it's not for breaking the glass off.

    The adhesive tape and listening to the sound of the cut are top tops. Thank you.

    Listen, taping that down is not over kill.. in fact that is a wonderful idea.

    I had to cut a piece of glass for an air conditioner install in a window, I used this method and it worked perfectly. Boy was I relieved. Thanks for the video.

    Thank you! I have had nothing but grief trying to cut glass but following these directions did it, I wasn't putting near enough pressure on to get the "crunchy sound". The dowel is really helpful too, thanks for taking your time to share all of this.

    Thank you! Very helpful, watched this and proceeded to cut glass for the first time, got it on the first go which is great because I only have one pane that's the exact size I needed.
