I'm curious to know if anyone has tried using the diamond scroll saw blades
that RBI sells for cutting glass and ceramics, and if so, what were the
results. Did they work well? How long before they wore too much to be
useable?
I'm wanting to incorporate glass into some of my designs, and such an item
would be perfect, but for twenty bucks, I want it to work well and hold up
for some time.

you should use a water feed saw for cutting glass. the dust leads to a quick
case of silicosis. there are plenty of stained glass saws that have a water
feed on the diamond blade, or you can use a standard wet tile saw for
straights. frankly it's better to learn to cut glass with a glass cutter
than saw it. if you only have a bit to do, find a local stained glass shop
who can make the glass for you. if not, lessons?
