Abstract:
A glass shaping apparatus having a housing including a work surface integrally formed to the housing top and a variable-speed drive motor mounted within the housing with a drive shaft, including a grinding surface, protruding through a penetration onto the work surface. The motor includes a manual rotatable thumbwheel for adjusting the speed of the rotating grinding surface for the type of glass being shaped. The sloping design of the work surface accelerates the escape of byproducts and provides complete support to the glass. Attachments for high-speed rotary sawing and engraving of glass at 10,000 revolutions per minute are available.
