Post by: illawarra_steelers on January 17, 2009, 02:40:12 PM: Does anybody in the Sydney region have 2 standard pinball playfield glasses for sale?

That is safety/tempered glass with bevelled edges?

Title: Re: WTB - 2x standard pinball playfield glasses
Post by: humpalot on January 21, 2009, 12:40:04 AM: Tempered glass yes, but I think they call it something else. Smoothed edges are standard no need for polished.

Post by: pinnies4me on January 21, 2009, 01:05:12 AM: Worth making sure the edges are dressed. The very first time I bought a new glass many years ago they asked me if they edges needed to be dressed, and not knowing what that meant said no. Well I had to replace that glass as every time I took it out I would cut my hands.

Post by: Bayview on February 01, 2009, 09:52:51 AM: Hey Tony, I'm a glazier with my own business. Long way from Wollongong though. You need to ask for "Toughened" glass. All toughened glass comes standard with a "rough arris" edges. The last playfield glass I sold to a pinhead (nice old bloke about 60.....no shit) ....I think I charged him $40 cash.
Do you have a pilkington's glass (now called VIRIDIAN) in the gong?
If so we might be able to get an order placed through that branch for you.
Cheers
