You're fortunate to have a DH who can/will do it for you!

Does your husband use the scroll saw as well? or what?
Any problems with chipping or breakage?
I might consider trying it myself ... though the glass company have been pretty reasonable re pricing that it may be less expensive than the tools and more so, the frustration of getting it precise! :)
