OK, just curious, as you suggested a glass-cutting diamond saw (IIRC)
which is normally a slow diamond saw (at least compared to one for tiles).


The type of saw I'm thinking of is a "ring saw", a bandsaw with a rigid
circular band of diamond-plated metal. They're slower in rpm than a disk
tile saw, but I think the linear speed is similar as the band is so much
bigger.

Both of them, being water-cooled diamond saws, are much slower than an
air-cooled Dremel disk.
