    Check with your local glass shop for help with this ( see the yellow pages). You will pay per cutout (for example, per electrical receptacle opening or whatever) or if you are cutting down larger mirrors to small, you'll pay a fee for that. Trying to do it yourself may result in a pile of broken glass. Good luck//dave

    My wife bought me a Dremel kit for Christmas. The instructions tell how to drill glass and mirrors, and perhaps cut them too. Before I started to work on a very valuable mirror, I would practice on some glass, even if I had to buy some. It is cheap. I have done a little cutting of glass. I am not that adept at things, but it went fairly well. Do wear goggles and gloves. Just for the fun of it, I may try drilling a hole in some glass.

    I was so lucky due to her concern for our old dog and the difficulty of controlling her toenails. You can grind them down with the Dremel.
