DIY – How to Make a Glass Whiteboard!

Here’s a really cool DIY that shows you how to make a glass whiteboard.  As fond of whiteboards I am, I will have to try this myself one day when I get a bigger house.

This instructable will show how to build a glass whiteboard that will never wear out and never ghost. The size I made mine was 28 inches by 54 inches and was NOT made to freestand as it would take up too much room in my sons college apartment. Total cost was a very reasonable $60-65, and took a weekend to build and finish (minus the time going to and from stores!). The glass was from a local IKEA store. It is normally used as a desktop protector and is safety glass weighing about 30 pounds . My son is a Math and Com Sci double major along with being a whiteboard nut and his rooms look a lot like the garage in A Beautiful Mind so a great project for him.

    A really nice glass whiteboard is available from http://www.glasswhiteboards.com. They are more for the corporate setting – very professional, beveled, your logo, etc.

    Whoa, that’s cool, can you send me a sample? You’d get free advertising everytime I record videos as I do for a lot in front of my whiteboard.

    Just thought I'd update my whiteboard link above. It also now has a video so you can see the quality.
