I've mixed goldstone with bottle glass with no problems. I score around the bottle right before it thins into the neck and again near the bottom. Then tap carefully with a hammer (wear safty glasses) then I score them into quarters and break apart with planishing plyers. Then I score the quarters into sizes I want and break apart with the planishing plyers and Voila! Long flat pieces of glass. Just be careful not to cut yourself on the edges.
