Each sheet is $4.90 from Home Depot
Double checking the measurements
My 4x5 holder with the new metal attachment so glass does not fall out
3-in-one oil used to lubricate the glass stripper
Measurements conveniently located on the stripper
The board cost me about $5.00 to make
The glass is wrapped in newspaper that a shred to keep it clean

Cutting the pieces of glass. I cut 4.75 strips from the 20 inch side and one 3.75 strip
Piece of glass waiting to be wrapped up
The accuracy of the stripper is great! My slight movements mess it up a bit but its all hand cut!
Organized in stacks of 15
This is how I shred the newspaper
Where I keep all of my glass cutting and cleaning supplies. I make sure to keep a solid inventory so when I go to shoot I know what I do and do not have. The next step is to order asphaltum for painting the back of the plates. The glass is here not exactly ready to be used. The edges need to be sanded down and all of the glass will be cleaned with whitening. A pain in the butt, but if you zone out and listen to some good music it is not that bad. Plus I do not mind putting the extra time in at 33 cents a piece.
