User questions & answers

Question:	Could you use this scriber to score stained glass shapes that can then be snapped to the shape to use in stained glass or glass mosaics
Answer:	These will score glass but I do not think they penetrate enough to shape glass.
Question:	I could use it at work for when I need to make cuts, will this tool work on stainless steel
Answer:	Yes, this tungsten carbide scriber works good in stainless steel.
Question:	what is the diameter and lengths of the tip
Answer:	Hello, the tip's diameter is around 2mm and length is around 4cm.
Question:	Actually, i have a glass puppy bank that i want to etch a name on it. the glass is kind of fragile. what is your opinion on using this
Answer:	I've tried it. It easily scratches glass, but the point is fine and sharp so it scribes a very fine line. Be aware that scribing glass will weaken it, no matter how you do it. To engrave glass without weakening it too much, you have to use an abrasive burr and a Dremel, the same way that handmade "cut crystal" is done. If the glass is thin and fragile it should be laid flat on a felt pad so the pressure doesn't break it.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this etch picture frame glass and wine glasses
Answer:	It should certainly mark the glass, but "etching" to me refers to imparting a design or letters. The point is very fine, so you could draw fine lines but filling in would be tedious. Think sketching with a very fine tipped pen. I bought this to score microscope slide and window glass for cutting small shapes for charms and stained glass. The microscope slides are hard borosilicate glass and my roller cutter couldn't score it. The scribes works great for that.
Question:	What is the diameter of the scribe shaft (after it necks down but before it narrows to the point
Answer:	The shank is 3.16mm, the "necked down" part before the point is 0.97mm.
Question:	I have a glass piggy bank that I want to etch a name on it. The glass is a bit fragile. What is your opinion on using this
Answer:	This would lightly etch glass but if the glass is fragile, please consider using paint or magic marker. Good luck.
Question:	Does this work on hard plastic like stereos and electronic equipment, gadgets etc? Thanks
Answer:	Features a durable tungsten carbide tip, aluminium body making it works effortlessly on hard materials including hardened steel, stainless steel, ceramics and glass.

User questions & answers

Question:	Since this has a carbide tip, could it be used as a window breaker
Answer:	First, one wonders why one would want to break a window or ask about a metal scriber to be used in such a fashion? Second, yes, it is a carbide tip and could be used for breaking glass theoretically; however, they make glass cutters that can be bought at local hardware store. Safety glass found in automobiles is another issue.
Question:	I’d like this to sign glass art (mosaic) pieces. Will this work
Answer:	i have no idea etching glass requires enough pressure that it likely would damage your work. suggest drem. or eqv. and diamond tip.
Question:	Where was it made
Answer:	This product is an excellent value for money product, perhaps designed in USA, but I would be astounded if it was not made in China.
Question:	can it used to score glass for glass cutting? i need to score glass before applying pressure to break it.thx
Answer:	I never tought of using this little thing for scoring glass. But the idea sounds quite sensible. So I took a piece of scrap glass and tried. And, YES, it can score glass, and very well it does, indeed.

User questions & answers

Question:	Are their replacement carbide tips
Answer:	The carbide tip of the scriber is replaceable
Question:	Is this tip find enough to engrave on a tiny charm for a bracelet
Answer:	I wouldn’t suggest this for engraving tiny charms.
Question:	Can you use this with leather
Answer:	Technically....... yes; should you no. I haven't done leather work in ages, but I do recommend buying specific leather crafting tools. By doing so you'll take the guess work out of your crafting. Plus I'm not sure what intention you have in mind other than light marking to trace over with the proper tools and hammer. Leather rebounds from embossing easily. That's why hammers and presses are often used to make the impression stay. Hope that helps good luck.
Question:	does this work on silver
Answer:	Yes the carving tool could work on metal, wood and glass
