Lee, I have purchased the two steel support frames new. All the glass I have been able to source has 40 years worth of scratches, winding up and down, up and down, up and down.

So yes, I am looking for just the glass.

Novus quoted me $150 each piece :crazy: for new toughened ones. Hence I am still looking (vainly at this stage) for some nice clean glass.

This may not suit you as it's tedious but I polished (buffed) out the scratches on mine using Tin Oxide in a paste, Lapidary shops sell it for the final polishing/lapping of gem stones.
