There are probably lots of "safer" ways; but simpler? I tried a Dremel
tool and a high speed diamond bit on the glass before we thought of the BB
gun. First, it walked over the glass and scratched it in a dashed
streak. Attempts to hold it in place while it spun resulted in the glass
shattering. Plexiglass looks great on day one, but soon looses it's
optical clarity from wind blown dust. What I offered is probably NOT the
safest, hence my caveat, but has worked quite well for me.
