cutting glass tubing
Gang,
Got a piece of glass tubing (similar to Pyrex) which is .490 ID, .625OD and I need to cut a piece about 11/16 long. File won't touch it, glass cutter won't do it, have been trying to score the outside with a thin "cutoff wheel", which scores it, but the stuff won't "snap off" as expected... just shatters, even past the score mark. Am I going to have to cut completely through with the cutoff wheel to do this? Ken. |
