It's a beauty - but better get it some wheels... Dropping that would spew enough glass to take off both arms and both legs.

agreed. I think that a brute dolly + some rubber shelf liner = perfect fit.

Craigslist search "antique glass" I guess they're in demand from interior designers or something though.
