beardshave Posted September 8, 2021 Report Share Posted September 8, 2021 I need a replacement 12" diameter porthole glass but none of the usual chandlers etc seem to stock them. Any ideas or will I have to have one specially made,? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bee Posted September 8, 2021 Report Share Posted September 8, 2021 If you don't mind ordinary glass any glazing place can cut a circle. Get the same thickness as the original or the seals won't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave moore Posted September 8, 2021 Report Share Posted September 8, 2021 I’ve had star cut porthole glass cut at the Ruskin Centre in Stourbridge in the West Midlands. I’m away at the moment, but I could pop in later this week and get details of the company for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEO Posted September 8, 2021 Report Share Posted September 8, 2021 I had a circular glass replacement cut at Amersham glass in Chesham - they have now re-located to Amersham, I had the edges ground as well. Hope that helps. M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plonk Posted September 9, 2021 Report Share Posted September 9, 2021 Our portholes were originally supplied by Cauldwells. when I dropped an opening half glass in the cut, they were very helpful.
