I need to shave the glass about 1/16 to 1/8 inch in order for it to move smoothly up and down in the new window channels and wood frames.
Can anybody suggest a process to do it? I am thinking using a belt sander with a fine sanding belt.
Am I on the right track? The amount I need to remove is too small to use a glass cutter.
Any help or suggestions are appreciated. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 1,780 Master Gabster | | Master Gabster Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 1,780 | a wet belt sander or go to an old glass shop and have them do it on theirs | | | | | Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 237 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 237 | Out of curiosity, why a wet one?
