Problem in water cut is to get the first penetration.
If you use abrasive paste it spreads anywhere until the real cut starts -
and spoils the machine.
Mostly glass shops can do miracles. In case they are used to handle problems
which are common. I do doubt if Californian shops can handle with
temperature problems which are so common in Canada and in Scandinavia.
(Windshields crack at the bottom, where heated air meets the ice-covered
windshield. A small hole must be drillet to the end of a crack, so it
stops...).
I think cutting glass in not a problem.
Real problem is to transfer technology. It may kill us.
(we are lying in a desert and can not drink Alpine's cooling water because
we can not purify it with the mostly universal technological invention -
womens4s tights)
In worst case we have not even the woman.
Well, if water and women can not be found, we can be still delighted,
because desert we have enough.
