Quick questions thread
« on: January 07, 2010, 01:08:31 am »
So i had a small question and diddnt want to clog up the fourmz too much. Thought i would offer this thread for others to use if they had some quick questions as well.

First of course check the stickies

http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=19049.0


or use search.

 but if not there feel free to ask.

Like meee i cant seem to find any info on where to get bezel glass. i have the wood of a cabniet i am restoring and now wondering on where to get the glass. (assuming it was glass. im pretty sure it was... dont have any arcades to verify but i dont think it was plastic)

Is there an online dealer that everyone goes to? or should i go to an automotive guy?

If your in the States, www.onedayglass.com seems to get mentioned regularly. Personally I would try local glaziers first if you can.

It may depend on the cabinet you are restoring but personally I would use 1/4" (6mm) glass. You will want at least a seamed edge put on it to remove any sharp edges and you will want it tempered too. You can also get it tinted if you like.
