Default Cutting Glass

There was an example of glass cutting on the Repair Shop, specialist glazer was brought in to cut some panes for a Victorian gas lamp. He scored the glass with a single stroke of a diamond no lubricant. He simply held the glass in his fingers either side of the score and with a slight twist of the wrists it split cleanly.
