TO CUT PLATE GLASS
To cut a piece of plate glass it is thought a diamond-cutter is necessary, but it is not. If the glass is not very thick it can be cut with a pair of scissors, a large pair being preferable. While cutting hold the glass beneath half a foot or more of water, and it can be readily cut any shape desired. A round piece of glass has been cut out of a good-sized pane in just this manner. The scissors do not have to be extra sharp.
