If that happened I would probably smash the rest of the glass in a fit of rage then cry in a corner, lol!

Luckily, that has never happened to me, although its not unheard of, or for the wrong sheet to have been put in the pack, like having 2 back sections and no door section or something like that.

Tipped over the balance with my 2 new coarse pieces so am gonna have to bit the bullet and get another detolf.
This is cool but also means that I'm gonna have to rearrange as another one wont fit next to the existing two.
This wouldn't be a problem normally other than the fact that I thought I was being clever and Screwed them to the wall to stop stuff falling over!
...so much for being clever!

I spent ages looking for clear risers cheap since I need 5 per shelf in my detolf and don't want to be shedding out nearly the cost of the cabinet on 20 small risers. anyway I found a ton of photo cubes in a pound shop one day and they'r amazing, each cube splits apart so you get 2 risers per cube for £1! they measure about 90x90x90mm.
I think I bought 10 cubes so I had enough risers for one detolf, and although I haven't found them again so cheap I have seen them in places like hobbycraft for about £4 a cube which is still cheaper than getting acrylic risers from ebay.
If you find any I reccomend you grab some and please let me know as I want to grab another 20 haha.

I'm a fan of the Acrylic steps & plinths but this weekend I am planning on attempting to make my own.
I've grabbed some 5mm Foam PVC sheeting from work and am gonna cut them up and glue them together to make some specific sized risers.
I'll post some pics up whilst I'm doing 'em.

good plan, I remember making acylic shapes and stuff in school, I wish I could go in and use there equipment now, I resent spending money on risers.
