Description:
The Vertical Glass Beveler is a studio-grade coldworking machine designed to grind and bevel glass edges with control and repeatability. This style of beveler uses a vertically oriented grinding wheel so you can bring the glass to the wheel and dress the edge at a consistent angle, which is especially useful when you need clean, even bevels on flat glass components. In lampworking and scientific glass work, a vertical beveler is commonly used after cutting or trimming to remove sharp edges, refine fit-up surfaces, and prepare parts for assembly, mounting, or further polishing. It is also a practical tool for finishing fused glass blanks, slab-built components, and other pieces where a smooth, chamfered edge improves both safety and appearance. The 220-volt configuration is suited to studios and shops equipped for higher-voltage machinery, and the unit’s weight helps it stay stable during use.
How it is used:
- Mark the area to be beveled so you can maintain a consistent edge width
- Use water as needed for cooling and to control glass dust during grinding
- Bring the glass edge to the vertical wheel and move steadily to avoid flat spots
- Rotate or reposition the piece to keep the bevel even around the entire perimeter
- Step through finer abrasives if you plan to polish after shaping
- Finish by smoothing the edge so it is safe to handle and ready for mounting or further coldwork
