Title: Need help finding glass clips for cocktail top built with 3/4in plywood...
Post by: displacedtexan on January 15, 2006, 04:59:34 pm

Anybody know where I can get glass clips for my newly built cocktail cab?

I used 3/4 in hardwood plywood instead of the original 1 inch.  I have bought 8 glass clips that were designed for the original, but can't get them to work and still look good.

I have a nice 1/4 inch tempered glass top that I would like to secure to it.

Thanks in advance for everyones help.

Unfortunately it looks as if both of those were designed for 1 inch tops with 1/4 inch glass, not 3/4 inch and 1/4 inch glass tops...

Thanks anyway...

Well if you can't find the size you're looking for you can always get about 8-  1/4"  pieces of wood and glue them underneath the cocktail top that way it makes it the right size for the clips.
