Glowforge glass lid fell off! Repair with aftermarket hinge bracket

The lid on my 2nd Glowforge also disconnected from the hinges in the back. I purchased a $160 aftermarket bracket that will hopefully resolve the issue. In this video, I show you the installation process in detail.

I've had experiance with the glass detaching from parts of my two Glowforges...I've had to repair the front handle, as well as the rear hinge side.

I have no business relationship with the seller of this hinge bracket, here is the ebay link where I purchased it (for $150 + $10 s/h):
