Hi all, I need a small enough tool (pref diamond tipped) to cut this stuff: Ngineering It's the .005" glass. I ordered a few packets a while ago and would like to start using it. Anyone know of something that would do the trick??
Try CLOVER HOUSE - I got a diamond tipped scriber from them years ago - did some cutting on the lab glass and it worked, Don't have a URL or an address - maybe Google does. Tell Russ John Coots sent ya - doesn't get youa discount but will get you a chuckle. John
Thankyou John. I found Russ's website, but he doesn't have an email address listed. The product list does state that a scriber tool is available. Could someone living near him give him a call and see if the tool is available and at what cost for me please?

You can get a small glass cutter at shops for stained glass art supplies. They're cheap and will work just fine.
Hi Phill! No, I live a far bit away. But diamond glass cutters shouldn't be that hard to find. Oh, you're in Brisbane. Sorry. My daughter spent a summer there and loved it! I'll have to come sometime. The nearest supplier might be in Korea. I'd google something like "stained glass cutter." Sorry, didn't realize I was dealing with Brisbane.
I did find what I was looking for here: http://www.tdiinternational.com/usr/handtools/micro-mini-tools/main.html In fact this will do the job nicely. There's one small problem tho, TDI want to send it via UPS where the postage is astronomical!!
Phil - just a suggestion - write Russ and ask him and I am sure he will accomodate you - he is one of the nicest persons in the hobby - I've known him more than thirty years. From the looks of the tool you showed us and the one I have it most likely can be mailed in an envelope. John
Thanks again John, I'll put pen to paper over the weekend and shoot him a snail mail.....it's been a long since I've done that!
