Very difficult to cut glass without the proper tool, but these small hand cutters cost very little to buy. better to spend a couple of pounds on a cutter than break the glass and have to buy more.

As Uncle Billy says, a glass cutting tool is cheap and effective. It's basically a hand tool you use to score the glass with a minuscule scratch. If you've never don it before, practice on some scrap if you have it. Also, wear gloves! To snap the glass along the score line, put the glass on a solid surface, let the piece you want stay on the surface with the throwaway piece hanging over the edge, then grasp the throw away piece firmly, and press down on the piece with a quick downward motion. It's really easy once you get the hang of it!
