Abstract
Two versions are disclosed, and each includes a pillar post mounted for castering action in a head which moves relative to the glass sheet. In both versions the pillar post has a bifurcated lower portion, with a rectangular insert provided between the furcations and a glass cutting wheel mounted in the insert. In one version the insert has an upstanding stem releasably retained in a central bore defined in the pillar post, and in the second version the insert has a laterally projecting pin which is releasably retained in a side slot provided in one of the pillar post furcations. In both versions the insert projects beyond the bifurcated pillar post to facilitate removal thereof, and both versions are designed to permit assembly of the insert in its associated pillar post in only one orientation.
