Need help with glass panel "trimming" ???

[boldtogether]

It's all good!

I got it done with whatever the pink grinding stone is in the Dremel assortment.
!!!Notes!!! Anyone who sees this in the future. If you grind the edges of glass with a Dremel you MUST do it outside of the living space, wear a breathing mask, safety glasses, gloves, and long sleeves. Randomly the glass will release tiny chunks that have enough speed (I was running my Dremel at the 15,000 RPM setting) to puncture your skin, spear your eye, etc etc. The mask is needed because you are basically creating fiber glass as you slowly trim away the oops. Patience is key. Friction creates heat, uneven heat causes glass to break. I didn't use any water cooling at all. Just slow and steady. Don't get obsessive. Staying in one spot longer than a few seconds heats the glass. Good luck!

Good advice! Niice save!!

I got lucky! lol I only had to remove 1/64" from each side of the panel and only at the bottom 6-8 inches.

Sweet...
Apparently, fear is not a factor for you.

I would have been pissed at the glass being wrong. I want to see these sumps when you're done.

Oh it was! Chicks dig scars but only if they have a good story. This event would not have been a good story. Lol

I don't know...at 15,000rpm you could have caught an edge and instead of posting pics of a sump, you could post pics of a stump.....
ok, I will stop.
