Not exactly metalworking. I needed to make a replacement glass piece for a camera because I removed the IR/UV filter and the space needed filling for proper focusing. I used a 1mm glass slide, the type made for microscopes. The piece needed to be 8 x 9 mm. I mamaged to get one and then discovered I had scratched it. So I tried again and was rewarded with a scratch free piece. I was surprised how hard it was to cut this glass, for it to break where I wanted it to, and finally figured out how to score it properly. I hope I never need to do this again. Eric
