We did it using a tile saw:

Cutting drop vase using tile saw

Hold the rim tight against the blade, and slowly rotate the piece, cutting only a ittle of the glass with each rotation.  It will take several rotations to get through the glass.

 

You are watching Brad Walker at warmglass.com demonstrate the technique at a workshop at his studio in July, 2011.
