livingart Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 that break on base maybe an issue with the stand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaxxnz Posted December 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 that break on base maybe an issue with the stand i had 12mm base glass with 19mm ply and 25mm HD poly, its my first project.. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livingart Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 just looking at star pattern suggests it started at centre of plate which suggests flex in glass at that point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smidey Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 this is the laminated tank you were "experimenting" with? the one that we thought it would go pear shaped? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh_S Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 Is base glass laminate? As has been said before, laminate is only as strong as each individual layer. So wouldn't think it would take much to break 3mm or so layers of base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
