Thanks for the replies, folks! I sure appreciate it.
My local glass store sends all glass away to be tempered. The locals cut it to fit, then send it off. Takes 10 days to get the finished result. And they may not even fool with such a small piece. As they told me, you must cut to fit, then temper. I really don't believe the locals know much about the use of tempered glass - the guy I spoke with suggested what I had was "sandwich" glass, i.e. safety glass for automotive use (Lord! What would THAT cost?). Not the case - and I told him I doubted the plastic used in the middle of safety glass would work out in the high heat of halide light.
