Grozing
|
|
is the term used to describe the nibbling action which is required, at times, to remove slight points and "flares" from the cut edge of the glass, which are normally produced when curved cuts are made. The tool which is used for this purpose is called a "grozing pliers" or sometimes simply a "grozer". It is a smallish pair of glass pliers on which the jaws are parallel when they are open about 1/8", so that they grasp the glass tightly along their entire jaw surface, thus ensuring a good grip. The tool is used in what is best described as a "chewing" action which removes small amounts of glass in flake or powder form. Breaker/grozier pliers are listed under Glass Pliers.
