The traditional way of cutting glass is, of course, scoring and
snapping. But I have often cleaned up and made safe "chipped" edges on
glasses, etc. with abrasive. I have sometimes wondered whether it would
be possible to cut glass sheet with something like a tile cutter,
perhaps using a diamond wheel. Or, say to take off a corner, with a
diamond disk in a Dremel.
I have ordered a glass cutter with a diamond head.
