Rep Power: 34 stevem is an unknown quantity at this point
Default Broken Brace

I have fixed a few over the years, and the only good way to fix that is with glass
you need a piece of glass about 4" wide by 1/16 " less then the space between the 2 glass walls
So if the space between the front and back glass is let say 13" then u cut the glass 12 15/16"
just so there a little room for the silicone, glue it and tape it so it drys in place.
It has to be thick not 1/8 "
i like to use 3/8" u might get away with 1/4" but i would try for 3/8"
and u have to use aquarium silicone, let it dry for atleast 3 days to fully cure and that will hold.
