Thanks guys for the answers.

I think definately SMT.

I also think that if I can score and tap the redundant glass away then
any shapes required should be fine.

With regard to drilling, I think this represents the biggest
challenge. I have two theories. One is to run the other way and design
as much as I can that does not need any holes. Then holes that are
required will most likely be done by hand after an accurate position
score point is generated for positioning.

Heating I think will not be an issue if I use a reflow oven style
curve and heat things gently.

I just need to find out more about the different types of glass.

Thanks for everyones input.
