GLASS WHEEL CUTTERS
A wrong name for what it does. This tool 'scores' a microscopic fissure into the
glass. When pressure is applied even to both sides of the score line, the
fissure works straight down quickly and the glass snaps in two along the length
of the scored line. There are many options available to you for a cutter.
The best cutters for full time use in stained glass are the Toyo line of
cutters. The cutter wheel is a steel-carbine alloy which has a very long
lifetime. The cutting heads on them are replaceable, if damaged or worn
out after several years use.
TOYO PISTOL CUTTER (TC - 600P): -
The same
blade and automatic oil-feed system but with a unique handle, designed for hours
of glass scoring with a minimum of hand fatigue. The pistol-grip is the most
popular with new students, as its larger handle size gives you more to grip, and
we like it for doing straight line cuts with the help of a cutting guide
All of the plastic handles come in 4
colors, yellow, green, blue and light purple. Each of them works slightly better
in one aspect over the others.
If you are having any troubles with your cutters, just bring them in and we can
inspect and evaluate them for you.
