<p>I decided to order the Toyo ground glass for my 8x10 Deardorff, as I was having a hard time seeing the Beattie screen anymore due to aging eyes and its hot spot. But the Toyo is about a millimeter or two wider than my Deardorff's cutout. On the long side (so i'd have to "trim" the long side). I could either route the Deardorff, but I am reluctant to do that to this wonderful camera, or cut a tiny edge off both long sides of the ground glass.<br>
<br />My question, for any of you with experience, should I take the glass to a glass shop here in Fairbanks, Alaska, and hope they can take such a tiny edge off without destroying or marking the whole glass. Is this a simple thing, really, for people who cut glass, to remove even a tiny strip like that? Or should I look for a second Deardorff user back and route it to fit this one.<br>
Thanks!<br>
