looking for mirror glass again

My current source is out of the 4" 3mm mirror glass. I don't know if they are going to get any more. I will try to find out I ordered some 5mm 4" mirrors and they are the kind I first bought and didn't like. They come with rubber feet that are easily peeled off but the bevel is just too long and looks funny I think. So I guess I'm in the search again unless the company gets back with me on future stock.

Perhaps a glass shop nearby could produce what you want. My --limited-- experience with glass shops has found them quite reasonable.

Not around here.  I tried that early on.

The glass was not perfectly round and the edges were just sanded and not beveled. Cost me a lot more than I could buy them at Hobby Lobby which is still way too high for mass production item.

Those will work. A little expensive and I usually buy 25 at a time when I can't get them wholesale. I used to buy them 100 at a time from the dealer that quit carrying them.

Have you tried Etsy? I just did a quick search and saw a 5 pack for $8.25. There were many singles for $4

Another source that might be more than you normally pay. They might discount for large orders. http://www.crystalflorida.com/3mm-mirrors

If you find the perfect supplier please let me know. I may want to go in with you on an order. I'm down to just a few mirrors.
