MattGecko Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 Call a few local glass shops Link to comment
ricky1414 Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 It is expensive, almost around 100 bucks. The glass shop has to cut the glass, send it out for tempering, and then uv coat it. Link to comment
MattGecko Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 Shop around, I only pay $45ea for MB7 & Nanocube glass. Santa Teresa Glass (San Jose) Glass: 1/4" tempered with UV coating, & it takes two weeks. Link to comment
KrackerG Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 Michael's Arts and Crafts store...for picture framing. $16 for my CSL 20" Link to comment
Rikko Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't a slightly thicker piece of window glass do just the same thing? It's certainly enough to block any UV from the sun - I can't imagine a halide being that much more intense that a thick chunk of window glass wouldn't filter out the UV. Link to comment
KrackerG Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 if you use too thick of glass, you'd be blocking more light...regular 1/8" float glass already has a 10% surface reflection http://www.nano-reef.com/forums//showthrea...&threadid=25782 Link to comment
