Broken Aquarium, disassembly question

[ Follow Ups ] [ Post Followup ] [ The Monitor Forum ]

Posted by gruveb on May 13, 2003 at 16:20:50:

I have a 55 gallon aquarium which cracked today. Just on the back side, so I can use the other pieces of glass for cages. I had though about dismantling it anyhow.

So I possibly have one piece of 3/8" glass that's 18" by 48" and another that's 48" by 12" and two pieces that are 12 1/2" by 17 1/2".

Anyhow, I've got most of the bracing off but I can't seem to get the pieces off, at least not yet. And MAN, the edges of this glass is razor sharp! Man, this stuff sliced me and I didn't even feel it.

Anyhow, other than wearing gloves, anybody have any pointer in safely disassembling this aquarium withOUT breaking the pieces of glass?
