From what I have seen here, almost all are a mix of self fabricated Copper ezy flanges, Self cut glass and gaskets, then clamped using the tri-clamp system. AD has a store here, that sells the parts you will need, but the copper parts you may need to fabricate yourself. Others here know better than me, so they might chime in for your options.

Thanks I thought that may be the case. Do you need a bevelled edge on the front of the glass to shut the trial clamp.
