Use a
similar pressure to cutting 3 or 6 mm glass. It is natural to think
that as the glass is thicker, you need to use more pressure. The
different angle of the cutter wheel is designed to transfer the standard
pressure more directly downward.
Use
cut runners made for thick glass to help break the glass. Run score
from both ends of the score, especially on curved scores.
Alternatively,
turn the over and use hammer and rounded screw driver to run the
score (similar to tapping method for thinner glass). Place the screw
driver blade directly over the score line and tap it with a hammer.
This will start the run. Continue it by placing the screw driver
over the score at the end of the open score and tap again to continue
the run.
