Oh gosh I love you!!! You fixed my problems and just let me say there a tons of how to videos and not many that address fixing problems thank you so much! I’m having foil lifts my iron heat is good and I am careful with keeping hands clean. I’m kinda a perfectionist can over burnishing cause foil lift cos I’m sure I do that
@LadyBerz18 күн бұрын
Glad I could help! All you need to do to burnish is to make sure you can't *easily* pick the foil off with a fingernail. If it's well- burnished, the foil will take *effort* to come off. kzbin.info/www/bejne/raTcdqB_rrmtibc Watch from 6:10, if you've not seen this before :)

thank you for this video! I just baught yesterday some hit gun burner, my first thought was I should use tin for connections.. however I ended up trying just to heat up 2 pieces of metal wires close to each other and wondering why they wont "stick" 😅 regular metal wires from hardware stores works with tin or that other soldering wire you are melting for connections?

would it be better to solder the reverse side of the panel first, then just solder the front side after that?
@LadyBerzАй бұрын
We've discovered that that trick works very well with all flat panel stained glass projects! Set it up face down, tack and solder back side first. Glad you picked up on that. The back side tends to turn out better, then we wish it was the same quality on both. Thanks for the comment, and for watching :)

I've always used zinc, brass or copper only. I think you might have trouble soldering 60/40 tin/lead solder to it. It needs a different type of solder. Might want to look it up before trying.

Hi, what if you just wanted a turtle sun catcher how could you reinforce where the legs meet the body, coukd you foil the pieces separately as normal & then put anoverlay of foil from the edge of body & wrap it around the legs to create a reinforced edge ?
@LadyBerz2 ай бұрын
Yes, you can, and it would still be fragile. You can also do the same thing by tacking 18 or 20 gauge copper wire to the outer foil, and edge-finishing it in.

Thankyou for sharing i love a finished edge, do you have any tips on soldering wire onto the edges so they look good & dont rip the foil with solder off if they get moved like, i was making achicken with little wire legs & crest then some started to lift 😊 am i doing something wrong ?
@LadyBerz2 ай бұрын
It’s tricky to do. Anything tacked onto edge foil like that is very fragile. Wire soldered to edge foil will rip right off the edges. Try tacking the wire to break lines that meet the edge, rather than to the edge foil itself. This takes a bit of practice (and failed attempts!) to get it right. Keep at it!

Hi, You can do a google search to see if your local chain hardware store (lowe's, home depot) has some 14, 16 or 18 gauge spools. Otherwise, amazon, or jewelry supply sites (riogrande.com, fire mountain gems, etc.) are good places to search.

Do you have to remove the entire window for one small piece? That seems like it would be a bit extreme and/or more expensive and labor intensive. Especially if it’s a large window.
@LadyBerz3 ай бұрын
Yes, it is labor intensive, because most stained glass is installed in front of a plain window. To repair, access from both sides is needed. Maybe there are experts out there who can masterfully do a repair in situ... Most folks leave the small cracks, though. Adds character! Mine had about 8 cracked pieces and a BB hole. I wasn't going to live with that! haha. :)

The empty bezel has to be soldered in place first. Then finishing and polishing is done to the rest of the piece. The last thing to do is what I’m doing here- inserting and setting the stone. Stones cannot handle torch heat. They will either crack or even explode! Thanks for watching:)

Hi - I have researched this to no end and still have not found an answer. I want to solder a diamond pattern on a large piece of flat glass. I would use copper foil and flux. I want to frame it and hang it in front of a window. Can I do this, or will soldering only work when joining two pieces of glass together? Thanks so much!
@LadyBerz6 ай бұрын
Soldering is usually done to connect separate foiled pieces together. If I’m understanding your intent correctly, if you were trying to attach a diamond shape to a flat piece of glass, you’d have to apply foil to that flat glass *and* to the diamond in order for the solder to stick to them both. Problem is, the flat glass is susceptible to heat shock once the iron makes contact with both pieces for a prolonged period. Separate foiled pieces, connected together, like a puzzle (traditional method) is the way to go.

@LadyBerz6 ай бұрын
Clean off the flux as best as you can, use a lot of tape to hold everything back together. Tack the panels back in place. You can push the glass back into the foil, but, you might try using foil to ‘tape’ it back together. Run the foil down the panel seams where the foil already is. Re-flux and re-solder. Hope that helps!

You mentioned that you didn't want to remove the solder from the large blue piece. Why is that?
@LadyBerz6 ай бұрын
In order for that big blue piece to come out by just trying to melt the solder, you’d have to get that entire seam to be at the melting point all at the same time. It’s not really possible with that big a piece. Breaking the piece out is easier. If it’s a small panel or edge piece, you sometimes can just melt the solder til the piece falls out/off. Just not a panel this size.
