Where did you get your glass from in the vancouver area and how much did it cost for them to do all the cutting and drilling?

I went with Niki Glass in North Vancouver on the recommendation of a fellow reefer. They've been pretty good so far. They are CNC cutting all of the glass, polishing and beveling the visible edges, drilling the holes and cutting the overflow weir notch in 3/8" glass all around for about $260. The glass itself was only $120 or so (tank glass + overflow glass). The rest of that cost is mostly the polishing and the remainder is the other finishing stuff I had them do. Bit on the steep side for what I had originally planned but I figured if I'm building a tank I might as well just go all out and do it the way I've been dreaming of.
