Glass Cover Boards

I had Ace Hdwr cut this glass and the total was only 18 bucks and I just couldn't resist giving this a try and so far I like it.  The thing I was finding about doing an inspection on the long hive was kinda feeling lost as to just where the concentration of bees were until you slowly made your way to them starting from one side.  With the glass you get to see them right from the start and if you want you can start the inspection in the brood area and possibly eliminate a good deal of pulling frames.  I don't have any langs now but if I did I think I might try some on them as well.  The jury is still out but if I do use them on the hives I will get thicker glass, I looked a plexiglass and it bowed too much and was not as clear.
