Got some glass from lowes, and I have to say it is almost worth the money to go to a real glass shop. The glass that I got from lowes was very poorly cut, they didnt have tools to do anything but full length cuts (I wanted to notch the corners of the lids i was making to make room for air line, etc coming out of the tank), and the cuts were *very* poorly done. I ended up having to use a sanding block to sand off the burrs and chipouts when I got home because they had no finishing tools either.

YMMV, but, Buyer beware.

Don't know where you are located, but there is one on main street in laurel ,MD. Almost down to route 1, on the left.... Across from the post office.

Don't remember off the top of my head, but I do remember not being too offended by the price. I'm sure it will be more than Lowes though..
But they did include cutting/finishing the glass in the price...
