cheapest place to get ceramic glass??

[unclemoustache]

Howdy,

Broke a pane of glass on my Lopi stove, and I looked around a bit - cheapest I could find was over $40 for an 8 1/2" x 11" piece. Any of you have any better leads?

That price doesn't sound bad. Last piece I had to buy was about twice that size for a medium Dutchwest and it cost me about $130!

Buddy I worked with busted his stove glass last winter.

Ended up calling the local glass shop, who had a pane of ceramic on hand and cut it to size for 40 bucks.

Check around a bit. The stove shops need support, but tripple the price is a bit much.

Stay safe!

I'm a heating man, Ask the price for the original part then go to your local glass place & buy it for 1/4 of the price. If $40 is to much for you I would suggest sourcing a rich older lady with one foot in the grave and a love for thrifty men like yourself. LOL

Sounds very cheap to me, $100/sq ft. here at my glass shop

I was afraid I'd hear that. I think you're right. That's spendy stuff! Only problem is that I have to drive about 45 minutes to get it - local places don't seem to have it.

Howdy,

Broke a pane of glass on my Lopi stove, ......

What made it break? I was told a log could burn right in contact with the glass without it cracking.

Can't recall, but it's also a top-loading stove - I would guess that me (or wife or kid) dropped a log in a bit too forcefully.
