3D Stained Glass Cactus - How to

[@cynthiakerford4458]

Great attention to the details and the explanation of what and you are doing and why. Easy speaking pace to follow along. I love the idea of using the putty. It is certainly an affordable path to hold the panels together, versus spending $30 for a custom made jig. Amazing work!

When I use textured glass I slightly tilt the glass when doing the final grind to grind a smooth area all the way around the piece. This helps stop the foiling from tearing when burnishing.

Thank you so much 😊

Thank you so much for posting a video of the whole process without speeding it up! I don't have any specialized stained glass teachers in my area, so this helps out TREMENDOUSLY 💚

Very detailed tutorial. Thank you!

During a cut it helps to be sure to apply pressure all the way through from edge to edge. If you don't follow through and stop applying firm pressure at the end of your cut, the glass will still break, but it takes more persuasion or it's more likely to break in multiple areas. I think some nipper pliers would be helpful too

Excelente trabajo! Gracias 😍

[@raineedayz]

Wow! Thank you! That was amazing! Are you going to post anymore?

[@CC_by_e]

I will be revamping this video to make it shorter and more concise but I also hope to add a 3D sunflower tutorial as well 🥰

@Creative Chaos By Erica awesome, my mom did stained glass when I was a child. She passed down all of her supplies to me. I basically know the process from watching her do every step during my childhood. But I am trying to watch some videos to make sure I am giving myself a good review. My studio space is almost ready to go and I'm so excited to start making pieces. It was nice to watch the whole process from start to finish. Plus I have been wondering how to make those 3d cacti. I got a lot of great info from your video and I appreciate you putting it out! Can't wait to see what you put out next!

[@anaisabelgonzalez1285]

Hermoso!!

[@cyndichavez1554]

Love your classes! I’m very new and would love to make your cactus serious. Do yo sell you patterns?

[@kellykrueger178]

With the variable temp soldering iron, can you tell us what temp you were using? Or what you use normally? Thanks. *Ordered your pattern and am making this, this week! 1st project ever.

[@Schultz-s2n]

Great video...what temperature do you have your soldering iron set at for the cactus?

[@KathrynBrenner]

Great job on your video. It looks like you could use some more water in your grinder. This will reduce the chance of breaking the glass, and extend the life of your bits.

[@kaylanaughton9495]

Have you tried out grosing pliers for the small break offs?

[@CC_by_e]

I have added them into my arsenal of tools :)

[@ddwinters3025]

Thanks!

[@theresabrinkman2078]
