HI All,
anyone tried Toyo TB-19/600 glass cutter for thick glass? It looks very effective, but is very pricey. Would love reviews before I buy it. Also if someone knows where to get it affordably.. thanks!
P.S. Arthritis is a drag for a glass artist !!!

Hi Bonnie, no first-hand knowledge of this model but will the cutter head fit into another pistol grip cutter you might have. Amazon Australia has the head for 42.00 AUD so it would be a lot less expensive for you.

Sorry for the multiple photos! I was not correctly using the software to attach the photos. whoops.
The name of the item is described as Toyo TB-19 Power Breaker for thick glass. Has anyone used these?

Did a deep dive.. this item was discontinued by Toyo. (sigh)
So, any suggestions out there for buying or creating a power breaker for thicker glass? The typical runners are not sufficient for me. thx!

I believe the black cutter is still available, just not the rest of the system. I've used the cutter by itself before, works fairly well for straight cuts in glass up to around 1/2". The blade is at a different angle than the regular cutter.
Are you trying to cut straight lines or curved ones? Now that we have a waterjet, we just cut that way if we need a thicker piece cut. Can do up to 1" that way.
