Glass Cutter

Glass cutters are hand tools used for cutting glass. They are specifically designed to score or cut glass surfaces, allowing for precise and clean cuts. Glass cutters typically consist of a handle and a cutting wheel made of hardened steel or tungsten carbide. The cutting wheel is usually a small, sharp, and pointed disc that is attached to the handle.

To use a glass cutter, you would hold the tool firmly and apply pressure while dragging the cutting wheel across the surface of the glass. This creates a score line or a shallow cut on the glass. Once the score line is made, the glass can be broken along the line using pliers or other tools.

Glass cutters are commonly used in various applications, such as glass art, stained glass work, window installation, and general glass cutting tasks. They are essential tools for professionals and hobbyists working with glass materials.
