I've recently come into posession of 8 large sheets of 1/2" thick glass.
Has anyone had any experience with cutting this? What kind of tools will
I need?
TIA


I would definately let the pros handle it.

Or just make a really HUGE cube shaped tank =)

I second the motion. I'm a big time DIYer, but the cost of a few simple
cuts and bevels is so low (at least here in edm.ab.ca) that it's not worth
the hassle to deal with the thick stuff yourself.

If you want to give glass cutting a try, look in your local penny
pincher/bargain finder and find an old sliding screen door or glass shower
door. The thin glass that they're made of is ideal for 10 gallon and under
tanks.
