    any tips for attaching doors glass with no metal corners? Drilling holes my only option? Is there an epoxy I can use? Side note/ I have diamond grinders (of every variety) for roughing glass for epoxy

    You could make some acrylic hinges, but with a glass door. So you paste the hinges to the glass with silicone. I've known people who make it this way.

    I have only built tanks using E-channel track for sliding doors, I don't know of any easy way to make swinging glass doors. While I have never tried it myself, I have read many reports of attempts to bond acrylic and glass (such as the acrylic hinge on glass doors idea) ending in the silicone failing and the two parts separating.
