Wanted ¼" thick Wavy Glass for Phono Cabinet

Post by Shawn »

Folks,

I am looking for a piece of ¼" thick, old wavy glass that I can use to replace a 22 x 10 inch piece of glass in a phonograph cabinet. Ideally, if you have it, and will be coming to the wayne show that would be great!!!

Thank you

Shawn

If you don't get any good leads here, I think some of the architectural salvage places are starting to offer services like this. I know of one in Virginia that will cut glass to your measurements from original old wavy glass stock they have on site....

Just an idea to keep as a "back up".....

Thanks!!

Most windows have ⅛" thick glass. I've got access to tons of that at our Architectural salvage place. Doors and larger cabinet doors are ¼" thick. Its hit and miss at those places. The ¼ inch thick glass is around, I've found some previously, but used it.

I was hoping someone here would have some that I could get easily.

Okay, I follow.... Hopefully someone will chime in with something. You're right in that some of the folks on this forum may have some of that glass or know a friend that does! - Chris
