Fixing a glass sheet to a wooden tabletop

If you have a glass company that does plate glass and mirrors for example, ask them. They will probably have exactly what you’ll need. Maybe not what you expect.

Those little clear plastic disc work well. However, they will react with some lacquer finishes over time. DAMHIK

When using the plastic discs, be sure to place them evenly on the edges as well as in the center portion of the table. Helps distribute the weight and any pressure of the glass.

My parents have a rosewood dinning table with a piece of tempered glass that my father had cut for the top about 7 years or so ago. They have the round plastic or rubber clear discs under the glass and no marring or marking. As bill above said space them out evenly.

If the table is flat, the weight of the glass should keep it from sliding around more than a scosch. I’d live with it as is. Don’t fix a mythical problem.
