    I need some heavily rippled, 1/2" thick coloured glass. sizes approx 4" x 70" and 27" x 43". looking around the web it seems as though I'll need to get this specially made. Do any of you out there know of a speciality glass supplier in the area, or at least within a resonable distance? TIA

    Where to get beveled glass in Raleigh area?

    I'm finishing up a set of barrister bookcases. I did plate glass in my last set of cases (oak) and it's ok. This set is walnut and it is looking pretty nice, so I'm thinking about spending the extra $$$ for beveled glass. Any idea where to get this made in the Raleigh area? TIA, Chris
