great video! Pity I didn't find your video before I cracked the first one a little! Just. a question when I go round my scores with my thumb afterwards it doesn't really do much. Does that mean I'm not applying enough pressure?
You just need to press it down firmly and push the lever over. If it initially sticks and then slowly unsticks you may have a hole in the suction cup and it will need to be taken back to your supplier.
It would depend on the jewellery case but it would likely be more difficult. The scoring and breaking sounds are necessary when cutting glass. If the tapping noises are triggering you could avoid tapping by pressing your thumbs down on the glass along the score line.
Yes and no. The 'cuttability' of glass is dependent on the manufacturing process but processes that were used in the past are more likely to produce brittle glass which is why it may seem like it's due to age.
Bloody brilliant!
Does the surface you're working on matter? Do you have something under the glass that "gives" a little when you're pushing along the score line?
I was looking for a video to cut a circle within a circle but you gave me an idea ... I'll try it... if I remember I'll let ya know how I did 😁
how did it go? I have to do something similar with a deck table

I’m sorry to hear about the cracked piece - it happens to the best of us! It could be pressure or it could be that your score wasn't strong enough.
Thank you very much
do u ever make a hole in a circle. . i did see u do that inside of the square glass. thank for showing that. is your glass 3mm
Yes it's 3mm.
I have this cutter but the suction cup doesn’t hold. It’s pretty new, do I need to get a new one or is there a secret to using it?

I have a circle beveled glass which is to big to fit my clock, how do I cut it smaller
Thank you for the great video. What is the lubricant you use.
It is a water-soluble glass cutting fluid that we sell. perthartglass.com.au/product/ch50056/
I've used wd40 and it cuts fine for me!
or turpentine/kerosene. Very thin oil.
It's not a nuclear bomb you're working on!!💥
Onto my third piece of glass ... :)
😟It's like that sometimes!
Nice cut. Where to avail that glass cutter? Thanks
Hi, we sell them in our shop perthartglass.com.au/product/cutters-silberschnitt-circle-cutter/
china.
Do you know if this works on jewelry cases? And is it possible to make it quieter in case there is some sort of sound sensitive trigger?
It would depend on the jewellery case but it would likely be more difficult. The scoring and breaking sounds are necessary when cutting glass. If the tapping noises are triggering you could avoid tapping by pressing your thumbs down on the glass along the score line.
@@perthartglass Thanks, accomplice…
Is it true that it's very hard to cut old or weathered glass?
Yes and no. The 'cuttability' of glass is dependent on the manufacturing process but processes that were used in the past are more likely to produce brittle glass which is why it may seem like it's due to age.
Thanxxx
how do i cut a crescent moon? thanks
Can a 50mm circle be cut (using the circular cutter) while the glass is still vertical?
No, the minimum diameter the circle cutter can cut is approximately 80mm. You could cut the 80mm circle vertically using this technique.
What if you wanted to remove a circle from the glass, without moving the glass panel? could you do that
If you mean from a window still in its frame, then no, that is not recommended. You will not be able to apply the pressure needed.
@@perthartglass is there a circle cutter that instead of scores, cuts/grinds all the way through?
@@Analstrosen Tools such as bandsaws and drills work on glass if they have a diamond blade or bit and the cut is kept wet through the process.
@@perthartglass I know of diamond blades/tips but the compass thing, is there a blade that can cut deeper than other ones?
@@Analstrosen No, glass cutters are just scoring the glass.
how about to cut a double side window glass ? you cannot touch the other side.
It's not recommended to cut glass while installed using this technique.
Is it possible to cut a tile the same way?
With the same technique, yes, but you might need a different type of cutter.
Sir how much price? Please!

“Yo daddy wasn’t a glass maker move from in from of the tv”……….Oh wait never mind😅
Wtf happened there Bruce? 4:08
Haha, you noticed! There was a breakage on the first attempt.
There's a breakage on every attempt I've done so far. Not with your technique though, I'll try that and see what happens..
Okay! And now show how this work on 8mm glass. On 3mm it can do even monkey.
