I think cutting glass. Score the glass, then "break" it on the line with another tool..like this!(Image removed from quote.)

Works very well. Wet the line you are going to cut with kerosene, start at one edge with moderate pressure. If you are doing it right you will hear a nice sizzle noise of the cutter rather than a chipping sound. After the line is scored, tap on the underside of the glass along the line with a hard object like the ball end of the cutter illustrated and you will see the cut go through and the glass will fall apart. You can freehand any shape except inside corners. Circles can be cut with a special cutter or guide. Old glass is harder to cut than new glass.
Hi Bob , Nice chatting with you today , the above is kind of neat . I will have to rummage around a bit , I have some variation of a/the versa tool . I sent you an email to one of your addresses , check and see if I got the right one .
