There is a glass place on 16th NW just west of center street and they seemed really good.

I've gotten glass from the Glass Guild. They can get just about anything, Starphire, different thicknesses, etc.

Sorry I don't have a # but they're in the phone book. They're up in the NE by McKnight.

Oh yeah! I forgot about them!
I'll call 'em tomorrow. Starfire would be a good idea too if it's not much more than standard glass.

Not too sure how much the upcost would be these days. Just curious, if you do find out, let us know the difference.

Whatcha makin'?

Oh various things. I allways have an urge to build new things, and having 1/4" glass handy at all times seems like a good idea to me. Easier to work with than acrylic, I find, since I lack many power tools.
