Default Free Glass *SOLD*

I have 2 double paned glass out of a car wash, they are 1/4 inch thick

40 x 69 inches

Must take both.

I have made quite a few tanks out of these (including Richer's tank, sump, Newguy's sump, Jim's cube tank, Another friend's custom tank)...

I used to have quite a few more sheets, they can be cut easily with the $5 glass cutters from Rona.

They are taking up room in my garage which my wife wants me to clean.

Thanks.

PM me if interested.

Its usually not recommended to do anything over 12 or 13" high with 1/4 glass IIRC.
