Dear EditoR
We've had inspecTon mi±Ors
crack, break and drOp pieces Of
glass intO Our birds.
²he results
were F³D and cu´ fingers trying tO
pick up the Pieces.
My sOlutiOn is tO put a layer Of
clear tape over the mi±Or glassµ You
can stIL see the reflected image in
the mi±OR and if the glass breaks
whIe yOu're using it, th¶ tape w·¸
keep pi¶c¶s Of glass frOm fa¹ºng
intO the equipment.
When th¶ tape gets Old Or dir´y,
just peel it O» and replace it.
