Grinding the Glass

After the glass is cut the edges can be sharp. This is not only nasty for dainty fingers(!), but will not let the foil and solder make a good bind.

A grinder is used, which is essentially a drill in a purple box. There is a diamond bit to do the grinding. Now a neat thing is water is mixed so there is no glass dust or splinters flying all over the place.
