Im trying to roll my own sheet glass in 96 for use in roll ups. I present it to the rolling machine I made but it either gets stuck on the rollers (to hot I think) or it just cracks before I get any nice sheet. Has anyone tried and made this work ? Im shooting for 1/8th thick. Thanxs, Mike

What temperature are you preheating the rollers to?

My best geuss would be around 700 to 800 F. on the roller preheat.

you have to get to just below wetting point and I mean just below.
