Custom Glass Shelves

Hi,

I'm looking to get two pieces of glass cut to make a TV stand, can anyone recommend a company that will cut glass to and drill holes to my specification?

Thanks

Re: Custom Glass Shelves

Pretty much any glazing company will be able to order it in for you. Try the local companies first.

HI

Just make sure you get toughened glass. It's a quite a bit more expensive but worth it for both safety and quality reasons. A friend of mine made his own hifi rack once out of normal glass and it shattered as he was putting it together!..
