Do you know how many panes of glass you have?

When I put a 8x6 greenhouse last year I secured each pane with 4 w clips(two on each side) and supported the panes that needed suporting with two clips on each.

Hope thats of some help.

My 8 x 6 has 64 panes of the two standard sizes of glass.

256 W clips and 80 square S clips should do it, but I'd get somes spares, when they ping out they go for miles, and normally land in the undergrowth  ;D
