Thanks. I ordered their latest catalogue a week or so ago and couldn't find
it on their site. I just modified my search and found it.

I was a little concerned about the glass panel itself being a little long
and narrow. As I think about it many floor clocks use this kind of glass
without problem.


You won't have a problem since the glass will be supported all around in
the rabbet. Instead of putting in a piece of plastic for the retainer,
I'd opt for a simple matching wood small 1/4-round or chamfered trim
strip - but then again, I'm pretty old-school.
