[R-390] R-390 Digest, Vol 57, Issue 34

[Richard Spargur]

Window glass is to thick.  When I worked in a large shop working on R-390As
we would very occasionally get a broken glass plate.  We ordered a box of
about 1 inch wide, quantity 25 microcope slides in it.  The slides easily
fit and required no cutting down.  I would double check the 1 inch or 3/4
inch wide by measuring.  The slides worked well.  Three years later I think
we still had over 20 of the slides left.  There are a lot of places to get
slides from.  They are common. 

Removing the super glue I take a lot of time, finger nail polish remover,
and queue tips diping the queue tips in solution and gently rubbing it on
until the glue disolves.  There is a big down side which you may want to
think of another solution.  The acetone in the nail polish remover will also
disolve the paint if you are not careful.  Use the nail polish remover
solution as a last resort.

 Hello gang, I wonder if anybody has a piece or 2 of the window glass?
I actually need 3. I broke a glass piece I had. I also had another that
someone had glued in. The crazy glue is visible and it bothers me to look at
it. any suggestions?
