In Response To: Strip: Fiberglass and stems? (Rob)

take an x-acto knife and cut away the glass that has air under it.

Sand the edges and coat it with epoxy. You don't need glass over the solid wood stems. It's OK to have it but a few coats of epoxy would be fine too. So just coat the removed area and blend it in until smooth.
