Work Area Surfaces




Glass breaks when cutting?
  • Keep your work area surface free from glass burrs and cutting debris.


  • Surface is not level, any valleys or ridges in cutting surface can cause unexpected breaks.


  • Surface may not be properly supported which allows for flexing when pressure is applied.


  • Applying too much pressure can result in bad breaks.


Getting cut when cleaning work surface?
  • Keep a bench brush handy at all times, don't use your hands.


Not sure what type of surface to cut on?
  • Use a sturdy table or bench that is flat and level.


  • Cover cutting area with heavy vinyl fabric., this provides cushioning which protects your cutter wheel.


  • Use Morton grid surface.
