Sorry to rain on your parade, but you wont be able to use a score type glass cutter to remove baffles... to cut glass it has to be free - as you score then apply pressure just right to snap... If it's siliconed in - you can't apply the correct pressure.

Razor blade and patience - will get it out.

you could just rent a wet tile saw, they cut glass really nice - and give you a nice safe almost polished edge.
Well is that a fact...Learn something new every day. I have a wetsaw in my shop and NEVER thought it would cut glass..Not a commercial one but it has cut LOTS of tile. Thanks for the tip.

Any tips on cutting glass or just the same as tiles?

Thx

Rich.....

If you know anyone work in AGF in edmonton then you are in luck.. they are Glass distrubutor (can't spell it ).. to major glass dealer out there. They cut glass with computer and everything look so professional out of it. Used to know someone work in there but moved to the Calgary Head office.

I used to get all my aquarium glass there with very good deal
