- In this video, Bob demonstrates several of the diamond blades we carry for cutting glass. Showing both the mounting technique on the MK-100 Tile Saw along with the proper use of aluminum oxide dressing sticks for dressing your saw blade.
You're videos are informative and instructive. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the demonstration. It was great to see how each blade performs.
You're very welcome.
Thank you Bob. I purchased a Husqvarna saw from ya'll and LOVE it! my first 20 bottles were perfect with little chipping. today I ended up having to toss all 5 with big chunks gone on the bottom. 99.9% sure it's just because I'm dog tired and not going slow enough. Your videos encourage us not to give up.
Glad that the saw is working out well for you. You may also need to dress the blade as the diamonds on the surface may be worn down. ruclips.net/video/f-jFJd07yTA/видео.html
Thank you for posting this video. I’ve learned something useful
Excellent video, thanks
Thank you for your video I just ordered my first band saw before I saw your video. I had no I dead’s I needed a dressing block
Thanks for sharing 🤗💯
Very nice video. I'm thinking of using one for borosilicate tubes.
thanks for video...can you tel which blade use for cut Sapphire??
If you don't have to worry about the mess from a lot of water running out the drain port of your saw, you can put your pump in a five gallon bucket, fill it with water and keep feeding it from a hose.
The advantage of this is, you are always pumping clean water through the pump, rather than water having the abrasive leavings from your cutting operations.
P.S. I've bought materials from HisGlasWorks and am pleased the products and response.
You can also permanently attach a drain line to your plug hole on the saw to prevent the water mess as well. We have done this on our larger saws in the past.
That is a great idea.
So with the aluminum oxide dressing stick, what grit should you buy for diamond blades? I just got my first glass cutting blade and a new wet saw for cutting bottles. Just wanted to know what grit used is better?
We typically recommend an 80-grit aluminum oxide dressing stick for most sintered diamond saw blades. www.hisglassworks.com/grinding-tools/blades/blade-accessories/aluminum-oxide-dressing-stick.html
Excellent explanation, I work blown of scientific glass and I just bought a MK glass cutting disc for my borosilicate glass pipe cutter, but I'm seeing that the edge is not smooth, I have to use the stone when the disc is new?
Generally most blades are dressed from the factory and will have an arrow on the blade showing the directly you should run it in. If you run it in the opposite direction it will cause more chipping and you'll need to dress the blade in that direction and stay in that direction. It also will depend on the type of blade, there are everything from slabbing rough blades, to medium cut, to fine cut to resin blades that have different cuts and surfaces. Water is also important with fine grit glass blades. You need plenty of water on the contact point of the blade and the glass to prevent excess chipping.
@@hisglassworksinc
In this case it is turning in the right direction, but I have not done the grinding of the disc with the aluminum oxide stone, I think that's why the glass comes out stained, I have to make the aluminum oxide dressing sticks before cutting?
Love the work.. Your thought on inland band saw for cutting bottle? Compare to ur. Thanks
Jack Vu In our experience it has been next to impossible to get a straight cut out of a diamond band saw and the bands tend to break pretty often. We've never been fans of diamond band saws which is why we don't carry any.
Thanks
The MK saws do a pretty good job on water delivery for glass diamond blades. Sometimes blades are not dressed from the factory as they are supposed to be. You can get sparks from undressed blades and from fine blades that you push too hard against as they will cause excess heat generation since they are slower cutting blades. Sparks can come from too little water on the blade, but they are not the only reason.
Could this work well on flat borosilicate dichroic sheets without chipping the dichroic layers? They are only on one side of the sheets. Thanks!
+Sean March The biggest issue with dichroic sheets is the thinness of the glass. Most sheets are only about 1/16 thick so even fine grit diamond blades will tend to want to chip out that thin glass and take coating with it.
The Superlok Glass+ blades would be the best sintered diamond blade to use for this type work:
www.hisglassworks.com/shop/blades/fine-cut-blades/husqvarna-superlok-glass.html
but the best cuts would be from a resin diamond blade:

I have a rigid 7 inch wet saw, were using the blade that came with the saw for now (only a few days old), whats the best blade for cutting champagne bottles? Also if you can explain to me the best way to sand the edges smooth afterward I would appreciate it. Thank You. Great videos.
Emick, We really prefer the Superlok Glass+ blades here:
www.hisglassworks.com/cart/Husqvarna_Superlok_Glass_blade_p84.html
They are fantastic blades for bottle cutting with clean edges. For sanding bottles you can look aBottle Cutting and Grinding Techniques our other video specific to grinding and polishing bottles here:
The link for the glass blades isn’t working right
Thank you for all of the valuable information, I am just getting into cold working, just purchased a 7" SKIL saw, I am currently using the blade that came with the saw. However, I was just gifted with Bborofloat Plate Glass 9mm, and being new to this craft I am not sure what blade I should use. I have tried to cut with the blade that came with the wet saw but it seems it will take me a lifetime to cut this glass, as I have to move extremely slowly and the cut is larger than I'd like. I can see that would lose a lot of glass with this blade. Can you please steer me in the right direction for the correct blade to use? At some point I will also be cutting gemstones.
If you're cutting multiple types of material and different thicknesses, I would recommend the Result blade for best overall performance: www.hisglassworks.com/grinding-tools/blades/medium-cut-blades/result-blades/7-inch-x-030-inch-result-medium-diamond-blade.html
@@hisglassworksinc Thank You
Very very interesting looking from this side! However, WHERE in the world could I find similare glass-cutting blades OUTSIDE the US? Perhaps in Europe or Germany somewhere? I'm in Namibia in the Kalahari red-dune area.
+Dr E Stan Miller We do ship all over the world. Blades are listed here: www.hisglassworks.com/shop/blades.html
Hello, thanks for the interesting video. Which saw do you advice for cutting the bottle? To get a clean job. I have Dewalt D24000
We always recommend the Superlok blade for bottles: www.hisglassworks.com/grinding-tools/blades/fine-cut-blades/husqvarna-superlok-glass/husqvarna-10-inch-x-085-x-5-8-inch-superlok-glass-fine-diamond-blade.html
@@hisglassworksinc I bought this saw on your advice, it's wonderful. thank you very much. Now I wonder what white is? Does it cut the saw blade?
nice one. I jusy learened majik from ya.from Ireland,Republic.Can you let me know where you get your aqlumium priming blocks from ?

Great video! Can I use any 4inch wet saw blade to cut a backsplash glass tile?
Most 4 inch wet saw blades are made for tile and, while they will cut the glass tile, they will tend to create a lot of edge chipping on the glass.
oh :( I bought a blade last night but wrong diamater. It was 4.5". I need a 4" but the 4" they have didn't say it was for glass cutting
Depending on your saw, it may take the 4.5" blade.
i got the 4" diamond for glass, it worked really well!
Glad it is working well for you.
1:43 Would it be good to turn the motor on while holding the blade to aide in tightening? ⚙️👋
NO! Never handle a blade while the machine is running. While diamond blades will not cut you, they can still injure you. Never handle a blade while the motor is on. Hand tightening is all you need to do. Once running the movement of the blade and resistance will tighten it down further.
hi am in need nof one diamond blade . which one do suggest is the best. your reply is highly anticipated.
It depends on how thick your glass is. For thinner glass we recommend the Superlok Glass+ blade:
www.hisglassworks.com/grinding-tools/blades/fine-cut-blades/husqvarna-superlok-glass.html
For thicker glass we recommend the Result diamond blades:
www.hisglassworks.com/grinding-tools/blades/medium-cut-blades/result-blades.html
Could you please tell me what blade would be best for cutting bottles?
We highly recommend the Superlok Glass+ blades for bottle cutting: www.hisglassworks.com/grinding-tools/blades/fine-cut-blades/husqvarna-superlok-glass.html
Hi can this maxhine be bought in the UK? I tried to cut a bottle with a table saw using a diamond blade for tiles .... disaster
It's all about the water usage when it comes to glass. Most tile saws will work but you need to make sure it provides enough water to the contact point of the blade and the glass. Tile blades will also destroy the glass, you really need more glass specific blades like the ones in this video.
Can it cut bottoms of wine bottles and is there a jig to hold them on place? Cost?
You can certainly cut the bottoms of the wine bottles as well with this setup. There is not a jig "out of the box" for something like that, but it can be easily fabricated for the particular piece.
HisGlassWorks, Does it matter what kind of dressing stick you buy? Do you need to buy according to grit? - HWallace
Not really. Pretty much any grit dressing stick will work well. We use an 80 grit to make it quite and effective, but it can be rougher or finer and still work well.
Can you explain how you use the dressing stick?
Here is our video on using a dressing stick: www.hisglassworks.com/learn/saw-blades/how-to-use-a-dressing-stick-on-your-diamond-blade/
What blade is the best for bottles? I’m getting chipping when i cut beer and liquor bottles
I really lean towards the Superlok Glass+ blades for bottle cutting: www.hisglassworks.com/grinding-tools/blades/fine-cut-blades/husqvarna-superlok-glass.html
Do you feel the thinner the blade the better too?
@@maryjaye8198 Not necessarily. With a finer grit diamond blade, you'll want a little bit of a thicker core or you'll run the risk ot putting too much pressure on the blade as you try to cut and oftentimes that will warp the core on thinner blades and ruin the blade. It's better to have a little more core stability with finer grit diamond blades
It’s a good thing I saw this video prior to using my new MK-303 blade! The blade says on it “ Use with oil coolants only for best results’🧐
No need for oil when cutting glass. If you were cutting stone then you would need to use oil with the 303 but not with glass. Just use water.
This machine MK101-24, can cut glass bottles in angle?
You'd have to make your own jig for the angle you want, but yes.
So just use a continuous blade for glass? Any continuous?
No, you'll want a blade that is specifically made for glass. Standard tile blades are continous rim but they are far too aggressive for glass.
What is the best MKDiamond machine for cutting glass bottles?
Either the 101 or 101-24 is a great saw for bottle cutting. It gives plenty of room under the blade head for the bottle and for your hands
@@hisglassworksinc thank you very much
Ps where did you get that hunk of glass ? can i get some ?
That was a piece of SCHOTT S8 glass. They no longer make that particular glass but you can get glass block from any number of glass suppliers.
8:55 How are those pieces holding on? Shouldn't they fall out?
PS: Yes, I've no idea about how it works.
We didn't cut all the way through the glass so it was still holding together.

Our medium cut blades are all excellent choices for cutting stone:

Which blade will be very good to cut beer bottles?
Beer bottles are very thin glass so you'll want something like a thin kerf plated blade or the Superlok Glass+ blade
Got a link to the amazon product?

My buddy bought this say and took it back the same day ,, was going to use it for cutting Obsidian slabs into preforms .. said the blade wobbles , sprays water every where .
Edit his was MK-170
2nd Edit : The blade he was using was Covington Gold series blade
Not sure about the MK-170. Never have used that saw. The MK101 is a great saw and we've used it for years. The newer MK101-24 is also a great saw.
hisglassworksinc
Have you cut Obsidian with this saw ? how about flint ? whats the price range of this saw ?
Jack Mehoff We haven't really cut any stone with this as we are mainly glass workers, but it does come with a great lapidary blade called Hot Dog blade that should be very good at cutting stone. We have refurbished MK 101 saws on our website for $650.00 and the regular MK101-24 saws run $1,100. Both can be found on our website at www.hisglassworks.com
hisglassworksinc
Ouch .. why so expensive .. ? You can buy a complete Covington 10inch Trim saw for 845.00 complete with power feed and cover.
www.kingsleynorth.com/skshop/product.php?id=97803&catID=1036
the 7 inch MK-170 only sells for 225.00 what makes this version so much more expensive ?
Jack Mehoff Trim saws are a bit different as they are designed for thin material cutting with very little depth of cut. The larger 10 inch MK saws are open saws with clearance on all sides. The MK101-24 has a rubber coated slide tray with a longer 24 inch throat. It's a higher end belt driven saw versus a smaller direct drive saw. The MK-170 is a cheaper direct drive system with no slide tray meant for occasional use. Not very heavy duty. It's mostly about build quality and longevity.
Can anyone tell me from where can I buy this saw?

How this saw ?
Kind of impressive this guy still has all his fingers
Actually diamond blades will not cut soft materials (like fingers). They will only cut hard materials.
@@hisglassworksinc well okay thanks - that's interesting to know.

Use masking tape on the glass for cutting, it will make your glass to get chipped less.
That does sometimes work and we have a waterproof masking tape specifically for this but the video was just meant to show the cuts given from different blades
👏👏👏👏👏🍺🍺🤗👍
what about tempered glass
I would recommend against trying to cut tempered glass as it is designed to release all the strain in the glass at one time throughout the glass so cutting or drilling into it generally will shatter it into tiny pieces.
hisglassworksinc i ask you to try it on a glass whitch have 30cm *20cm *4mm and aswer me please because i try it and it worked
made me cringe when he touched it
耳边强奸犯 same
You about gave me a heart attack touching that blade.
Nice thing about diamond blades, they will not cut you. Takes a lot of the fear out of using the blades to cut glass when you have to hold the glass close to the blade.
hisglassworksinc Thank you for the reply and the video. There is a whole lot of fear in working with glass, and this helps!

Bad thing about mks saws they are heavy as hell take a ton of space in the back or you truck/van a bitch to break down. Look so cheaply made.
The MK101-24 is a bit sturdier built and made for more professional use. Yes, MK does make some "throw away" saws, but we try not to offer those to customers. The Husqvarna TS250 saws are a better built saw, but also heavy and large. Smaller saws than 10 inch are generally not made for heavy duty use so the larger you go the better built the saw and the more room they take up
