The patented design of these running pliers helps you cleanly break even the most dramatic scores. The upper jaw of the plier can be adjusted to match the score, so you can break out inner curves and even the smallest glass strips precisely and without splintering. Durable and strong, these aluminum pliers will safely break glass up to 5mm. Take the stress out of your glass cutting with these amazing running pliers!
Bohle has made quality art glass tools since 1923; crafted in Germany. Due to importation costs, price and availability subject to change.
Pros : These are by far the best pliers for breaking glass. I've made cuts, including nibbling ones with much better results. Glass waste is significantly down.
Cons : I could only suggest making the neck deeper for longer reaches into cuts.
Pros : These pliers have made a huge difference in the way I cut glass. I am now able to cut deeper curves and longer straight lines with less breakage. Well worth the money!
Cons : Not quite as effective on thicker glass, but a light tap underneath the score helps.
Other Thoughts : You do need to practice when you first get these to learn how much pressure to use. If you use the same pressure as with the heavier pliers you're used to you can shatter the glass.

As for cutters and breakers, I have many, but for me, the Silberschnitt breaker pliers are a must for small (1/4") strip breaking.....saves so much glass. I use both plastic
Thanks to a wide assortment of patterns, molds and instruction, it’s easy for hobbyists to make Tiffany style lampshades. We should mention right away that when we refer to Tiffany Style Lamps, we’re talking about lamps that are made on a mold (or form… the terms are interchangeable). If a mold isnt needed, the lamp would be considered a Flat Panel Lamp. Making Tiffany style lamps is actually quite similar to making stained glass windows. The main difference is that after you’ve cut and foiled the pieces for your lamp, you solder them together on a mold, instead of on a flat surface. This is what gives the lamp its rounded shape. Most of the pieces in a Tiffany lamp need to be quite small to conform to the rounded mold. That’s why this type of shade, by its nature, has a considerable number of pieces.
