I know that $5/sqft is typically what most places charge which is how I came up with $60-80 (~$4-5/sqft) Now you might have to add a few bucks for an overflow if that's in the plan, it wouldn't effect my cost as much as I have to tools to drill and the extra glass needed is minimal. However glass shops typically charge $25 a hole if you order the glass through them, again this is based on my Saskatoon experience.

Wow. Well it doesnt surprise me. My town kind of thinks we need to fund the rest of the province or something, I belive I got charged like 6 or 7$ a sq foot here in town for my glass.

Yeah I'm sure the price varies not only from town to town but from store to store as well. If you're in a small town you will likely pay more, bigger cities should offer better deals.

I know even in Saskatoon some places would charge as much as $10/sqft so just knowing where to go is key. That's what I miss most about Stoon, the knowledge of where to get my fish stuff
