    Very good, but you should take care to wet the glass and the paper when you're sanding it. When sanded dry, the siliceous particles can go into your lungs and there's no way to get them out so be careful

      You can additionally wear a mask to be absolutely safe, sure, but doing it wet is the important part.
      People who work with glass everyday don't use masks, they simply do it wet. Because Silicosis is no fun disease at all.

    Years ago there was a tool called The Bottle Chopper. It was in the 70's. I think we bought one for Dad, the kind of present you bought when you'd got fed up buying socks. Made of flat steel one part scribed the line whilst the other fitted inside the bottle where you tapped at the line until it parted. There was also some sheets of wet & dry so you could smooth the cut edges. It might've won a design centre award. The award for the quickest placement at the back of the cupboard from where it never came out again.

    In the 60s my Dad used a steel rod, sharpened point, with a 90" bend to slide down inside the bottle and tap the etch to start the crack in the glass. He would continue to rotate the bottle tapping the etch from the inside and you could see the fracture crawl around the bottle. Even a single small crack would speed up the process of using hot water to get it started.
