    Hello all,
    Have a 1975 Bally Wizard. Where is the best place to buy a plying field glass for this game?

    If you can find a local glass shop that can supply tempered glass, you may be able to get a sheet of playfield glass for around $30.

    Provide the measurements (43" x 21" x 3/16"), and specify that the edges be sanded (not polished), and no logo on the glass. Some shops might require a minimum order, which might vary from shop to shop.

    Some shops might not specialize in tempered glass, so the cost could be $50-$100 per sheet. I'd suggest looking elsewhere until you find a cheaper place.

    Many local glass shops just order glass, especially tempered. Shame.

    Ideally pick one up at a Pinball show. $40 at Allentown and Ivan brought the extras to York, also $40.

    your location would help, lots of us keep glass on hand.

    That likely means they outsource it and don't specialize in it. There's likely going to be some place within 100 miles or so that does it.
