This thread is a follow-up to my previous thread about drilling holes in close quarters to add a pivot hinge, here:

It became apparent when I made a test "door" with a test "pivot" from scrap that the door's rear edge enters the medicine cabinet a little (maybe 1/2") when I open it. This would just run into the glass shelves.
So I was thinking of putting a little "notch" in the shelves, but I don't have any tools to work on glass.
So I checked eBay and came up with these:

And I wonder whether anyone has ever used anything like this on glass. Does it take forever? Does it just not work? I wouldn't need to remove much material, and only from maybe 3 shelves. Thinking of giving it a try.
