application and do not encounter the problems of a AC circuit. Good

glass plates work well and do not move once put in place. Old small
window
glass plates can often be salvaged from window instalation shops for
there
salvage weight value. They are very heavy and you will not move them
once
instaled. Your base mount insulators should be high enough to clean
under
them. Heavy wine bottels or pop bottels work as insulators if mounted
solid.
silicon RTV or  portland cement  can be used to mount them solid.

bubbles than "modern" glass.
