So, the main box is now going to be 1/2 glass! I feel like this may get condensation problems during warm days, but frig acrylic aint cheap!

I have my order in for the glass, and will use acrylic for the fake front and the overflow (and of course for the curvy bit as well).
Dan, call these guys in coombs:http://www.demxx.com/

i was there 2 weeks ago, and thy had some nice slabs, still with the protective sheeld on it, it was 1 or 1 1/4 thick

When you call, thel them the slabs where in the back left shelter, standing straight up, thy had several sizes.

i cant find the paper, how much thy wanted for it, I wrote it down somewhere.

Cant hurt to call, and if thy have them still, have them send you pictures of it.
