I'm sure it's not a new topic but I thought I would check with the experts here on Old Gas. I'm not a globe guy but I do own a couple. One of them was recently cracked during shipment which is why I choose not to collect them in quantity.

Does anyone know of someone who has perfected the art of repairing a lens? I heard there used to be someone in Santa Barbara but she has since resigned from doing these kind if reapirs.

Any leads would be appreciated.
thanks

Do you think SafeLight or some other auto glass repair might be able to help you??

I think if it was just a small hole/chip, an injection process similar to what the windshield guys do would work but this is something that needs a glass artist to repair. I did come across am art glass shop but she told the crack would still be quite visible.

Globe guys...any other leads?
thanks
