replacement glass

I need to replace the glass sheet as i dropped it.
I went to a glass shop and they said 4mm is the thinnest they can temper and they are unsure if they can temper a piece that small.
Will this fit the machine(supposing they can make it)?
Also what have other people been using, has anyone ran into this problem?

Re: replacement glass

Not sure where you are located, but I bought a spare sheet from Amazon. Perfectly flat and I have been printing on it for about a month.

Re: replacement glass

Yea Amazon has a number of good glass deals, i brought 3 sheets from this company here.

All three were flat and had nice beveled edges (so i didnt cut my hands :P)

Bot h this one and the one Richard linked are sized exactly the same as the one that came with the machine.
