    Does anyone here know, roughly of course how much it would cost for a normal pane of Glass roughly 22inches x 17inches ? The glass will be used on the front of an Arcade Machine im building so i dunno how thick, what type etc it should be. Any help appreciated.

    Regular clear glass shouldn't cost any more than about €40 I'd say. Any glazer can cut it to size.

    I would6mm laminated glass for that job! If you use plain or toughened glass it will shatter if it gets broken. Laminated glass will only crack, stay together and wont shatter.its a much safer glass to use

    Your suppose to use toughened glass.... For different reasons but I imagine the laminated would be the best way to go...

    Dont know where you live but my brother is a glazer if your living in Dublin meath I would gladly forward you his details...

    Thanks!
