Homebrew PCBs

Yes, but apparently it isn't like cutting say a sheet of cardboard or plastic.
The glass kinda breaks in sections, is what i have read.
I never tried it myself, since the sensible method works reliably and
efficiently. Also, would you stick your hand in a bucket of water with
glass in it that may have been broken into sharp shards?

I always wanted to see if a carbide PCB drill will drill through glass
but never got around to trying it. If you do try, let us know.

One thing to keep in mind when using weird and wonderful PCB materials
might be that the thermal expansion coefficients may not match those
of components, causing reliability issues.
