Is there any guidelines on what thickness of foil to use? I know you need flux for solder to stick to the copper but do you need flux for second application of solder? Newbie questions. Thanks.

Liked and subbed. Old Goat thinking about getting into stained glass. What thickness of foil do you prefer? Do you always use black backed foil. I really enjoyed your Bat videos. Thanks.

Great video Derek,can I ask is there some kind of file for glass to smooth things out when you cut the circle and done a series of cuts and snaps I imagine it was slightly jagged unlike the straight cuts

Love the detailed explanations. It's making be brave enough to attempt a repair!

Great advice. A lot of artists actually pull it downward.

Hi, just found you! I'm trying to learn and sign up for your newsletter but I keep getting and error.

Should there be a center mark on plyers?

as a chronic twister thank you so much for this

I just found you on Facebook and I loved your video! I have just started with stained glass and this will be a perfect beginner project for me…..THANK YOU FOR SHARING ❤

Thank you! This was soo helpful! ❤

Oh wow thanks so much for this I sure been doing it wrong

Thank you! Clearest tutorial I've found!

Thank you for providing a straightforward example

Thank you for the paper tip! I am making a small repair around the vent cap of a lamp shade, and knowing this will make it easier. I saw another video where the vent cap was (in my opinion) installed upside down - the convex side towards the inside of the shade. The original orientation was convex side up. Which way is correct? Have I been wrong for years??

Aww that is so beautiful 😊

Awesome video, i wish i could add a pic here of a gingerbread man i made at the bottom where i joined the legs, to the bottom of his shirt it was straight line of solder straight across the top of legs & bottom of shirt the stress point just broke off, i dont know why, do you maybe lol😅

I was told never to wash copper patina off with water, you just dry it off with papertowel then buff with finishing compound Before you start patina rub with steel wool triple 0 it helps with the copper being shinier when polished 😊😊

This is brilliant, thankyou thats helps me heaps. Can I ask how can I reinforce a stress point when using foil? Thankyou 😊

Do you wax them to help them hold the colour and not oxidize over time?

Hi there! So neat. I actually found the exact same light fixture in an alleyway recently. Any idea how one would hang it/attach it to the ceiling? What is this iron ring? Thanks!

Hi, Love the work. Would you or have you considered a stained glass tutorial?

Are you aware that the Hakko FX601 dial is in Celsius Not Fahrenheit degrees???

60/40 solder melts at 375 degrees fahrenheit - the Hakko iron is numbered in Celsius which is not the same ...

Could you please tell how to make a mold, thank you. Martin

Hello

Thank you for this info!

Great info

I just broke my glass lamp while playing the song 'Persistent Vision' by the Dischord Records band, Rites Of Spring. My guitar headstock collided with the glass, shattering instantly.

what gauge wire are you using?

what size foil when foiling a bead

what is the tempature of your soldering iron when beading solder?

THANK YOU!!! so much! Never knew what the set screw was for. I got a new pair of pliers that "don't work as well" as my old ones...gonna check that screw now.

Thank You! This should be a Great way to add crystal drops on wire to the bottom of a stained glass shade:)

I want to make stained glass jewelry but can’t be too large or too intricate a design. Do you have any advice or tips

Thank you so much for explaining and performing the fix of broken foil. I am learning more and more every day. Today, I was trying to add a ring and must have heated the area too much because the foil gave way. Your video helped me so much. Again, thank you for your very informative teaching. Joey - Brandon Florida

Thanks for the video. Do you use the same temp as soldering or do you turn your iron up? Sometimes I’m not sure how to gauge wether the old foil on the good side is still strong enough to not be replaced.

Hi Ann here from BC Canada

This is the BEST video I have found to repair a stained glass panel.

when I put a ring I use paper trombonne and a magnet onther the stain glass project like this noting move also maybe it is a good pratice to add lkittle peace of reenforment at each angle

you do not speak about remove platina if platina still on you have a big cleanning job to do on your iron after finish
