Taking care of your glass crafting tools ensures consistent cut quality and saves hundreds of dollars in tool replacement costs over time.
Maintaining Your Glass Cutter
- Keep the Oil Reservoir Clean: Empty old oil periodically and refill with clean cutting fluid.
- Check Wheel Alignment: Ensure the wheel spins freely without wobble or lateral play.
- Clean After Use: Wipe away glass dust particles with a soft cloth after every session.
Glass Grinder Care Best Practices
- Change Grinding Water Regularly: Accumulated glass sludge bogs down the motor and reduces bit lifespan.
- Use Anti-Seize Lubricant on Bit Shafts: Prevents diamond grinding heads from seizing onto the stainless steel motor shaft.
