Cocktail Cab glass how to
« on: January 13, 2016, 04:28:10 pm »
       I need a way to attach the glass for my cocktail cabinet permanently or semi-permanently. Right now i have just set on the top with lil rubber standoff buttons but the glass moves and moves the bumpers too.

  Any body have any ideas?

I cut some 1 inch pieces off a piece of aluminium c-channel stock who's opening was wide enough for my wood and glass thickness. (in my case it was exactly 1 inch. (3/4 inch wood and 1/4 inch glass))

then i just sanded and filed them until it was smooth and then ran some fine sandpaper in one direction over them to give them a brushed look.
