        I took the head apart to really check everything out. It's not going to 
fit 
unless I remove the runners. If I do that it might cause other problems. I 
think I'm back to the idea of buying two sheets of glass and taping them 
together. On the positive side the head now moves better.

        Thanks
        Nick
