Fashion and Technology meet with Broken Plates' Jewelry
We started using the CNC water jet to cut out our jewelry in 2015 and we were trying to test our limits. Water jets are not meant to pierce glass but can cut it very easily as long as it enters elsewhere and travels through the glass. We learned that the water jet stream cannot go straight into a glass plate without breaking it.
To overcome this issue in the past, we drilled holes into the glass plates so the water jet stream could enter through those holes and the plates would not shatter. Now we just design our jewelry more efficiently.
