Hello,
Would like to make my own glass frames to display some posters etc. I picked up - do we have glass cutting implments or would it be best to go to a framer do we think?
I need to do some framing at some point. I have been advised that we can cut down framing perspex on the table saw as long as we change to the correct blade. As for glass I don’t know if we have a glass cutter in the space.
Let me know if you do plan to order any framing supplies as I would like to go in on an order for prespex and maybe some mouldings.
Yeah, a multi material blade on the table saw is good for perspex…
Glass cutter - not sure - would be in the messy room tool shelves… if we don’t have one, it is certainly something we can get - send me a link… seems like it would be generally useful!
Cheers,
Andy
there’s a glass cutter somewhere but have not seen it for ages.
cutting glass is easy on the Big Green bench in the workshop

Oh looks like they are super cheap, like ÂŁ5-10 for the tool. I guess we should also get some gloves or would we already have glass-proof gloves? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Glass-Cutters/b?ie=UTF8&node=1938876031
We have long Steel rulers, a tin of 3 in 1 oill would be a useful thing to bring, I don’t use gloves for cutting glass but that’s your call bear in mind I have thick skin and Heal quickly.
