Use This [SECRET] Technique to Cut Stained Glass!

In this video I show you what I am calling the Hot Wheels Technique to stained glass cutting. It is a process where you are putting just enough pressure on your glass cutter that the head of the tool is completely compressed and you are gliding the tool across the surface of the glass. I personally believe it is an extremely effective way to score and break your glass very cleanly and without putting added pressure on your hands and wrists. I have seen my most complicated shapes be broken perfectly using this method of scoring. I hope it helps many of you glass artists in your glass scoring and breaking skills!

I have used a Toyo pistol grip for nearly 40 years now. It's the best for my hand strength and shape. I never fill it with oil. I put maybe 2 tablespoons in it. It will take a really long time to use that amount up. Textured glass is the hardest to cut. Opal is one of the easiest. Never rescore a line. You will do damage to your cutting wheel. The wheels can be replaced on the cutters but it gets costly if you don't take care of your wheel. I use the same wheel hundreds of pieces of glass. You can tell when your wheel no longer works. You will not be able to get a good clean score. Keep your cutter straight up and down. If you don't, your glass will break at an angle. You want square breaks. Just paying it forward as someone did for me.

I've always loved stained glass so I finally splurged on tools and I've been watching tons of videos to figure out where to start. And I have to say that of all the videos I've studied, your glass shows far and away the cleanest and prettiest cuts. Thank you for showing your technique! I'm looking forward to trying it.

@totaleffort Год назад

Great video. Noob here. I'm a 6'3" 250 lb guy that has been pressing WAY to hard to make the sound everyone says it "should" make. I was pressing hard enough to get shards coming off on the end of the cut, but that was the only way I knew how to make that sound. Thanks for simplifying the process. I would like to offer another video. Cutting on curved lines. How do you stay on the line?Is it just experience?

@KCGlassworks Год назад

So glad this video helped your cutting skills. If your wrists ever start hurting, your pressing too hard. Curve’s definitely take practice. Make sure you are following your line in the most controlled and steady way possible without adding pressure downwards that would cause you to start scoring too hard. I definitely make a video better explaining some tips and tricks to help.

@nancyschaillee7656 8 месяцев назад

You can use your other hand to stabilize as you press along the line

@theresevarney4715 Год назад

This is a brilliant way to explain the pressure needed to score glass. I've rolled many Hot Wheels so I can totally relate! Thank you for sharing 😊😍

@janetflowers7787 Год назад

Hi Carlye, will try your method thanks. I watch you break complicated curves without issues. Do you have your running pliers set a certain way please?

@KCGlassworks Год назад

So glad you found the video helpful! When I am running a crack with my running pliers I place them on one side of the score line, not on top of it. It helps the glass breaks much cleaner and won’t give you a ripple effect when breaking it down the center. I also completely take out any screw that could stop me from squeezing the pliers less than what I want. Hope this helps!

@kathymanzo4061 Год назад

Thank you, just the information I needed to see 🙂 I just subscribed to your channel. Do you have cutting oil in your cutter? I am new to stained glass.

@KCGlassworks Год назад

Yes I keep a little container with a sponge. I put a little cutting oil on the sponge and after I do a few cuts I will roll my cutter on the sponge to lube it up some more ☺️

@jcubes000 6 месяцев назад

This is so helpful ! Got some questions, is tempered glass ok to use ? Or where do u get ur glass from? As a beginner, what basic tools other than the pliers and glass cutter do u recommend ?

@KCGlassworks 6 месяцев назад

I would not use tempered glass. It will shatter to a million pieces. If you are looking for a good cheap glass to practice with just use regular clear window glass. There are many many place to purchase art glass. You can purchase straight from the manufacturer (ex, Youghiogheny glass, Wissmach, Oceanside) or you can google a local stained glass supplier to shop in person. Other places I like to shop is Anything In Stained Glass. As a beginner you should purchase the following: a Toyo glass cutter, grozing pliers, running pliers, sheet glass, 7/32” or 1/4” copper foil, 60/40 solder, gel flux, Hakko soldering iron with temperature control, a very small grinder (not completely necessary but you will want it asap), work in a well ventilated area like a garage or basement. Glass shards are going to get everywhere so keep that in mind.

@richardmaury4720 5 месяцев назад

Most textbook experts state that scoring requires 8 pounds of consistent pressure on the smoother side of the glass. Even pressure going forward.... Backing up and rescoring does 2 awful things. 1. it removes/damages the diamond on the glass cutter 2. creates a score that sends the break in multiple directions- not necessarily where you wanted. Question - do you even know why the Running pliers have the big adjustment screw - you don't seem to be using it? I do appreciate your videos though.You seem to get decent results.....

@KCGlassworks 4 месяца назад

8 pounds seems excessive. Just putting a simple scoreline on the surface is going to create weakness for the break. I never back up and rescore. The screw ensures you don’t squeeze too hard on the sheet. I don’t use it because I don’t squeeze hard.

@sezifun Год назад

Hi, thanks for your video…I can’t seem to master this technique - is it harder to apply this technique to Bullseye? I’m presuming it’s me and not the glass 🤣… but wondered if spectrum or other glass cuts ‘easier’? Thanks for your fun vids 😊👍🏼👍🏼

@KCGlassworks Год назад

You will definitely see a difference in glass types. Some glasses break very easily and some glasses are more difficult. But I do not change the amount of pressure I apply to my tool on any of them. 😊

@StarsMadeOfGlass Год назад

It's not you, Bullseye glass is always terrible to cut! Oceanside is sooooo much easier to work with

@xmwxmorris 9 месяцев назад

Ohhh my lanta… thanks so much for the video. Helped me out a lot

@katherinemnusa Год назад

I have the same cutter as in your picture..I need to know about the swivel head…should it swivel? I see a screw, but that might be for the blade?

@KCGlassworks Год назад

The screw is for the swivel head. It should have some movement to it. When the screw is too tight there is none. If it is too loose the head will fall off.

@carleyjo5602 11 месяцев назад

Not me using the pushing and shoving method and thinking I still wasn’t using enough pressure 🤦🏻‍♀️( I’m brand new to stained glass) lol I’m definitely going to be trying your more gentle approach

@KCGlassworks Год назад

@MICHELLEEVANS33 Год назад

How many times did you have to practice that cut to get it right?

@KCGlassworks Год назад

Not sure which one you are asking about but I do stained glass everyday so I get a good amount of practice in 😊

@deborahbarnard Год назад

So my cutter came with 3 different sized blades. Do you have suggestions for when to use each?

@KCGlassworks Год назад

Interesting! Mmm honestly I have never seen that before. I just tried researching it but couldn’t find it. My cutter has the toyo TC-600 head on it and I use it for all glass types. I have seen other sized heads before but have never used them. Sorry I dont know more about this but I will definitely look into it some more!

@deborahbarnard Год назад

@@KCGlassworks Thanks!!! So how often do you change your blade? I know you cut more than I do but I have NO idea how to tell when my blade is dull. I am VERY new at this....

@KCGlassworks Год назад

@@deborahbarnard absolutely! So if you notice that your glass is breaking very poorly, it is time to switch out heads. If your breaks start not following the score line, especially on easy cuts, then you know its time for a new one! Hope this helps!

@markmason3233 Год назад

Hello, are there different millimeter numbers listed on the side of each cutter head? If so, I believe that has to do with the thickness of the glass you’re scoring; typical 1/8” stained glass, 1/4” plate glass, etc.

@KCGlassworks Год назад

@@markmason3233 hmmmm I have not noticed any mm indicated on the cutter head
