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.
I might be wrong though !!0 -
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
