Well crap. That shoots my idea. Although I do know glass has a high melting point. I was just almost thinking get a sheet, set it on some preheated sandbags (like put one in the oven, then shape it with a no-burn glove or something to about the right curvature), then kind of gently heat the centerish area with either a propane torch or a welding torch turned on low heat, and just slowly warm a large center area of the glass till it bends on its own weight. The sandbag probably wouldn't melt, although I guess I could see crap sticking to it. Eh, just trying to help.
