The Prusa designed PCB heat bed is a great addition to your Reprap printer to help your printing platform to be a heated surface perfect for minimizing warping of larger prints.The heating element is on the bottom side. The heating is done by long traces of copper.The top side is solid copper to keep the PCB flat enough.

Borosilicate glass

If you want to make your printing platform flat enough, ideal stuff is glass sheet. Borosilicate glass is rated for higher temperatures than normal sheet glass making it a better material for use as a heated bed. After cracking a few sheets of normal glass from rapidly cooling or heating, borosilicate glass will quell your frustrations.
