Making fishtanks.

[Dyce]

So I''ve found a horde of peices of glass at my local tipshop for a few dollars a sheet, just guessing here but tank size would probably end up being 800x400x450 give or take, the glass thickness is around 4mm and all up glass would cost around 11$ anyways I want to have a crack at making it into a tank, only thing I need would be rails...<

Normally glass that thin is not used for tanks at all just too weak. - Also if it is old it will be
ittle and may be uneven in thickness , which will make it harder to cut cleanly.<
>My suggestion is don''t use it for tanks.<
>If you still want to make tanks out of it make sure you uses side
aces and keep the tank size small  - no bigger than 450 x 200 x 200, and even that may be too large.<

600 x 300 x 300mm - 4mm = OK.<

If not you could always use it for lids.
