- Whilst looking on google for where to buy stained glass I kept coming across the question can you cut stained glass with a Dremel? I thought I’d give it a go because I have to cut lots of glass for my latest project.
Skills mate, I thought that drip was gonna be an impossible shape. Well done.
Cheers TCME the first one took a few different approaches but now I'm not doing too bad. Hopefully finishing the glass soon and then on to the stand. When I find time!
Now,even I'm really impressed. Think what you're doing is amazing
Wow thanks mate.... high praise indeed...
Good to see it is progressing well by the look of the stack of pieces you have already cut.
Hi Mike, I’m amazed I’ve managed to do this much with so little time recently. I keep plodding on. I’ll try and get the next bit done soon. Thanks for hanging in there........ Know Expert.

Hâte de voir le résultat !
Merci Carole tu es trop gentil bz

Thanks Lara, Wow you caught this one early........ oh wait you just needed something to help you sleep!......... ha ha
Hello! I’m a beginner with stained glass work and i’m trying to get better with my cutting skills, I was wondering if you could share the name of the dremel and bits that you use for it? Great work!
Hi Olivia, thanks for watching my video. Here’s a couple of links to the Dremel and the bits. But first I have to state a couple of points just for safety and freedom of choice etc…. which are all rotary tools can do the same job, cheap or expensive it doesn’t have to be Dremel (I’m not sponsored by them but it’s my preferred brand) and also never cut glass without safety glasses or a good mask. Sorry to be so obvious but better safe than sorry. I was new to cutting glass when I made this video and it turned out nice. Check out my Tiffany style lamp for the result…. Here’s the links…

Silicosis. It's permanent. Never work glass dry!
Hi Jennifer, silicosis is indeed a terrible thing it’s why I never cut glass without my super fine particulate mask and I urge all viewers to follow suit. thanks for reminding me to point it out to anyone watching.
@@Know-Expert very relieved to hear it! 👍👍
Hi I can't afford to buy a glass grinder, your video seems the cheapest option?
Hi David, well as you can see it worked for me! Just remember to protect your eyes and make sure you wear a mask as the glass dust is very bad if you breath it. Good luck with your project.
Is it not necessary to use a bit of squirted water onto the piece?
Hi Martha I managed to cut 12 drips and another 4 or 5 that ‘didn’t look quite right' and one I dropped and broke all without water. I think water is used on tile cutting to cool the diamond disc but I thought I’d give it a try and see what happened. I found it works great. The diamond cutters bits for the Dremel are relatively cheap and I managed to cut all the above and a few of the pieces in the lamp before having to change it. Thanks for the question and also thanks for watching my channel…..
@@Know-Expert thanks for replying! I’ll try the Dremel w more confidence thanks to your encouragement and advice.
Glad to help….. you can buy packets of those cutters on most of the big retailers online they’re called 'diamond burrs'. Let me know how you get on
Oh and as someone just pointed out….. ‘Don’t forget to wear your filter mask'…….
Buy a $8 glass cutter... so much faster and better... score and tap. I worked with stained glass for 5 years.. my father for 25.
Hi Rylee this was my first attempt ever at cutting glass and I didn’t have the level of experience you obviously must have. I kept trying to just cut it but it kept snapping the 'drip' hence I had to find a different method and this was it. I have various glass cutters and I can cut straight lines and curves quite easily now but still not as round as those drips. Thanks for watching.
