Peel wall

[PAP]

Found this glass drawing board for $60.You think this would work for a peel wall? It's 57x65 Inches

Is it tempered? Probably a bit safer if it is.

Tempered glass only around here. Plate glass if effing dangerous.

 

You might be able to find an old sliding glass door for free somewhere. I find a few every year getting tossed out.

A local glass shop might have a miss order or something scratched that they cant sell out of inventory. Good people to meet anyway if you're in the tint biz.

How big should I go?Does 30 x68 work?

[Dano]

I like to keep a board a little wider than the film roll. My main glass that I cut patterns from is 45x78 (sliding glass door minus the frame).  I like to mount the main board vertical. Glass on the other side can be whatever fits your space.

 

I used to use a rolling frame but it's a pain to keep moving around. Always worried about it falling or breaking while moving it.

Yes. I've worked off of smaller or sometimes no glass at all in some mobile situations.

Get an 18" channel squeegee from home depot to hang near it. Makes sweeping it clean before you use it each time fast and easy.

Found free sliding door..How do I go about usin this thing?

[Dano]

Get it cleaned up with some soap/water, razor blades and #3 steel wool. Drill a few holes in the frame and attach it to the wall you plan to work from. Be sure to use a heavy lag bolt and pre drill a hole into a stud in the wall so it doesn't fall and hurt someone or the vehicle you're working on.
