heat gun, remove *all* of the glass chards... vaccuum cleaner

: 2. What kind of adhesive can I use to fix the new glass on top of th
: metal base or how can I fix a new glass top on the metal base?
little dab of liquid nail?


: 3. If I want to take it to a glass shop to get it done, typically how
: much will it cost to do this kind of thing? Will they just charge for
: the glass or will they charge for the labor involved in removing the
: old glass and fixing the new one?
get an estimate. it might be cheaper to go to a Big Lots and buy
a replacement round table top, or a whole new table...

: I would be very grateful for your thoughts on this
