[@joshschneider9766]

as a glassblower i got nothin but love for you patient glaziers. well done my man, thats gonna be pleasantly smiled at for decades.

[@godbluffvdgg]

OMG! As a tradesman for 30 plus years, I couldn't imagine doing a project like that...Such beautiful work but; SO TEDIOUS...It's great that there are men and women willing to endure the tedium * to me* of such an endeavor... Good health and freedom to you and yours!

[@personalsbysara]

What incredible craftsmanship and attention to detail. It was a joy to watch you work on this simple yet beautiful piece.

[@BradGump]

Wow, methods different than I've seen & you encased it. Well done from one Glazier to another!

[@marvserhan9710]

Absolutely beautiful. Fascinating craftsmanship. Thank you.

[@justjoe7313]

Beautiful cinematography, wonderfull music and beautifull work! #kudos

[@1LegintheGrave]

Pogo is perfect for this

[@hollytibbetts2003]

Thank you for a healthy dose of inspiration this morning!!!

[@Robo0086]

Same here! Good video thanks for sharing

[@StainedGlass]

I appreciate it a lot, cheers!

[@normandmainville8264]

You guys are amazingly professionals. If I understood well, all outside edges cut pieces were sent back to be beveled for final installation? Theses doors are stunningly amazing. Congratulations for that artwork! ❤

[@LEGACY59CONTINUES]

Super gorgeous

[@martha-leemain5883]

I was a Farrier for a few years, find it amusing to see horseshoe nails being used to hold the lead pieces inplace.

[@hardylimmer8185]

Die Nägel sehen in der Tat so aus, aber anders ist, dass sie gehärtet sind, sich also am Huf nicht umschlagen lassen.

[@TheFlatbedChick]

It would have been nice if you had described what you were doing and why .... looks good 👍

[@1LegintheGrave]

When the music starts back up with pushing the power button for the polisher......MMMMMMMMMMMM!

[@marvserhan9710]

That was pretty slick indeed.

[@kristyl933]

[@ConstantineShinkevich]

Hello!A very beautiful product!Could you tell me where you can get acquainted with the technology of such production?It is very interesting to know the materials used in your work.

[@markkuetemeyer1417]

Very nice work. When the windows were sitting in the pickup truck bed, did I see a protective sheet of glass and some sort of frame around the whole piece? can you tell me about the frame you used, since I assume the frame and protective glass also was installed in the wooden door. Thanks

[@davidswanson5669]

I don’t know the answer exactly but I can tell that the extra full sheet of glass plays two roles. First it acts as an insulator since it effectively makes a double pane window with a pocket of air in between, and second it acts as a sacrificial first layer of glass to protect it from the outside world (baseballs, weathering, and years of knocking on the glass door).

[@StainedGlass]

The frame around the whole thing is simple aluminum glazing channel that acts as a spacer to sandwich the finished artwork between two sheets of tempered glass. Building an insulated unit like this serves all the purposes the commented before me laid out, as well as serving to make the piece about a million times easier to clean.

[@studiohanson]

Bevels are heavy, but you used zinc came throughout which will obviously lend a lot of rigitity to the window and prevent sagging the way old lead does! That is a strong lattice! I am planning a very tall sidelight window project, all straight cuts and I am considering zinc throughout for strength and longevity and to avoid rebar. Can you tell me, what width you selected for your H-came? Thanks! Awesome work.

[@studiohanson]

I see it now. . . looks like it was 1/4” Round H from Cascade.

[@StainedGlass]

@@studiohanson Thanks so much for the watch and the question. And yeah, you must have seen it in the section where we pull it from the box, it's ZR25 quarter round H. I am prepping a video this week about working with hard metal came. I'm sure you're well equipped, but let me know if you'd like any pointers on cutting and working with it.

[@vaibhavshirke9181]

Great work you guys. Love from India ❤️

[@1LegintheGrave]

Have you ever had to take a piece back apart after putting like 3/4 of it together because of something not aligned correctly? Don't imagine you did considering your process. BTW, Pogo was the perfect addition

[@StainedGlass]

yeah hell yeah that happens all the times, heh. something comes out of alignment, or breaks, or I look and just decide a joint or a setting isn't as good as I can make it and it needs to be done properly, so I disassemble half a window, fix the problem, and reassemble. it's very common.

[@r.v.portillo3058]

It’s beautiful! :)

[@fuduzan5562]

Oh god I was worried during the flip around 11:50

[@StainedGlass]

Haha, ME TOO.

[@itsmehuck]

Beautiful work! Do you have a website I could check out!?

[@brianboggs8498]

For a panel that size is it sufficiently stable without adding re-strip, reinforcement bars or something other? ?It's fabulous work , though. Very impressive and very professionally done.

[@StainedGlass]

The came and the border channel are zinc, they are rigid metal (which is why we have to cut it with a cutting wheel), so every line of came in the window acts as its own reinforcement bar.

[@b2corry]

Hi. Great video! Learned so much. What’s the putty you use? Thank you in advance!!

[@StainedGlass]

Thank for the comment. The putty used is a purpose-made mix of portland cement, chalk, linseed oil, and mineral spirits.

[@undefeatedgaul3201]

What border is around this to support it? And what’s the powder? Beautiful work

[@SuperJimbell]

the border is Colombia and the powder is cocaine😄

[@StainedGlass]

The border around the edge is 1/2'' zinc U channel. The powder is calcium carbonate, simple chalk, sometimes called "whiting".

[@AbdelhamidCherif-lo2vg]

Bonjour.... Svp vous ne posez pas d armatures...?

[@hokukea123]

Who cut and beveled the glass?

[@lupus16309]

You could never transport anything like that in Pittsburgh…..

[@joshschneider9766]

or here in harrisburg either LOL

[@cathrynblackwell8698]

So educate me, I love the precision, but why didn’t you weave the came?

[@Alhamdulillah_HU_GhaniYunKarim]

what name silver bar for panel?

[@StainedGlass]

Zinc came, I can't remember the size but the model number is shown on the box we pull it out of in the beginning of the video.

[@ceegee4405]

Approx cost?

[@StainedGlass]

I was just an assembly assist on this job so I have no idea. But if I were to quote something similar I think it'd be around 8500 or so

[@ianxn-music3961]

Not being funny, and the finished work is still beautiful, but not seeing much in the way of stained glass here?

[@StainedGlass]

"stained glass" refers to the craft generally, not necessarily the fact that the glass is colored if a person wanted to argue that the glass MUST be colored for the final panel to be called stained glass, I'd make the case that of all the glass colors you can choose, clear is one of them

[@janzbedny5921]

Why are you using so long strips? The window is not strong at all This is unacceptable way of doing stained glass

[@derekredfield6867]

Lead strips with canals for the glass then putty after the solder. It’s solid this way

[@derekredfield6867]

Correction zinc came for the strips

[@hardylimmer8185]
