Digital BW, The Print

If you buy conservation glass by the box the price isn't so bad. For example, a box of 
16x20 Tru Vue Conservation Clear costs around $75. For 23 sheets, that's $3.26 per 
sheet.  

Less expenseive than having a 16x20 sheet of regular single-strength window 
glass cut at the local window glass store.
