So my wife cracked the screen of her Playdate console. I got a replacement memory LCD (Sharp LS027B7DH01A), but the LCD is mounted with optically clear adhesive directly to a piece of glass which is adhered around the edges to the console’s faceplate.
The glass measures 65.15x41.64mm by 0.65mm thick. Definitely not a standard size. I can’t find anywhere to buy glass so thin and so large.
My first thought was to cut a phone screen protector down to size with a glass cutter. My first attempt failed because the screen protector I bought was actually coated in plastic on both sides. Even if I got a straight cut, I couldn’t find a way to slice through the plastic layers cleanly.
Any ideas on where to find cuttable glass sheets this thin? I could try more screen protectors, but there’s no way to know if they’ll work before buying them.
Yeah, I hit up a few on Alibaba. Even one who can apply the black border on the glass. No responses so far and it’s been a few weeks.
You want to contact the business directly, not through Alibaba or similar. You can also try trade wheel or similar.
Alibaba is talking directly to the manufacturer. At least in my experience. Haven’t heard of trade wheel.
