I'm news also, but after some research, I found out about diamond coated bits that you can purchase cheap from Harbor Freight. I think the whole after market thing is the trick. I found a 210 piece set of assorted bits, sander wheels, cut of wheels, etc at Walmart discounted to $10us. Good luck, and Dremel on! Answer from sha_doobie on reddit.com

What bit do I need to sand glass?
Obligatory safety warning, in case you aren't aware - Silica dust is dangerous to inhale so you should grind glass or stone wet to limit the amount of dust, and wear appropriate respirator/work outside etc. For grinding glass or stone the best bits to use are diamond - either electroplated (cheap, thin layer of diamond grit) or sintered (more expensive, thicker diamond layer, lasts longer). Working wet with diamond bits will also help cool them and prolong the life of the bit. To get a smooth finish you can just use wet and dry sandpaper (silicon carbide is better than alu oxide) in increasing grits to get the finish you want. Note - To work wet with the Dremel 3000 you need the flex shaft so water doesn't get into the motor. More on reddit.com

Does anyone have a recommendation for dremel heads that will drill through sea glass?! At the moment all the heads I have are cracking the glass or not going in at all
Disclaimer: I have never drilled seaglass. But I have seen it done, and the person was using a vice to hold the piece, going very slowly and spritzing it with water. They did not use a dremel, but rather a implement that looked like a little drill press. I think it would be very difficult to hold the Dremel steady enough to not break the piece. More on reddit.com

Answer (1 of 4): Very carefully, with a diamond cone. Mask off what you don’t want to engrave, and leave bare the outline of what you do . Go in very lightly, don’t let the glass get hot.
