    Laser Cutting Glass

    I know waterjet is the best tool to cut glass. I haven't see anything mention about laser cut glass anywhere. May be is not possible to cut glass with laser.

    Not Glass

    You got that right.

    I havent had any luck cutting glass all the way with a laser. But will have to say that you can score it with a laser and then break it off. Not the greatest but will do.
