or will it shatter to a million pieces?
I have an old shower screen that I want to use for another purpose rather than throwing it away.

Nope....the holes have to be drilled before the toughening process.

You are not wrong, you cannot cut or drill it in any way {I used to, many years ago,work as a glass cutter}

once it's shattered into a million pieces, you could glue them together to make christmas decorations ...A kind word lasts a minute, a skelped erse is sair for a day.0
