Awesome work! But I suspect not enough precautions are taken against lead dust. As someone who has had lead poisoning by soldering I hope you're using decontamination cleaning agents and sprays for your workplace and don't touch surfaces you've soldered on with bare hands - especially since you wear rings and have long nails. Lead removal hand soap & wipes are great. Consider dust-wipe testing of your studio area to be safe (Schneider labs has a good easy kit). And blood testing for lead (none should be detected - if any is, you're being exposed unnecessarily) is a must. Stay safe!!

[@alissa2045]

finally some detailed yet easy to follow instructions from an artist who knows how to make a lovely piece!! ✨

[@AmayaJade]

thank you!! 💞

[@Gnarly_Burger]

I’ve always wanted to try stained glass and have found your videos to be the most comforting and accessible! Appreciate all the work you put into sharing what you’ve learned. I’d love to see a video of how you create/print your patterns.

[@AmayaJade]

I’m so glad you find them helpful! I will definitely make a video all about patterns!

[@mostevilsword]

Excellent info and great video, but one minor thing i noticed from my (limited) experience in woodworking. Generally you don't want to wear gloves around spinning machinery as it can be a safety hazard. The glove can get caught in the bit and at best ruin your piece, and worst cause an injury. that's the one thing I'd maybe not do

[@stephen1896]

The video I'd like to see is one that shows recommended tactics for best laying out your pattern on glass to both make cuts feasible and also preserve as much glass as possible. I made a pattern and soon will start cutting it (my first time) but I'm tight on funds and want to minimize my glass consumption with some careful planning.

[@user-op5yv2mu4x]

Agree! It would be very useful

[@AmayaJade]

I will make sure to go over that when I make a video on glass cutting!

[@stephen1896]

Thank you. ​@@AmayaJade Have a wonderful week!

[@raccoontrashpanda1467]

Print the pattern onto a piece of paper, cut the pieces out, and arrange them onto your glass. You can move the paper about as much as you want to see how they fit together and minimize gaps between pieces before you glue it down and cut the glass.

[@asmodeus1791]

@@AmayaJade Can you make a video showing how you make your stickers?

[@poppysdaddi]

i absolutely adore stained glass pieces and i buy them whenever i see them, but lately i’ve been thinking more and more about making my own pieces. i honestly felt overwhelmed thinking about it because i wasn’t sure where to begin. this video helped me so much!!! i appreciate you! ❤

[@AmayaJade]

i’m so glad it helped! 😊

[@KimiPetri]

Thank you so much for this. I’ve seen ppl making stained glass but no one explains how, and with what. Thank you so much for not gate keeping. 😊 Your work is beautiful!!

[@AmayaJade]

Thank you!! 💞

[@nicolenardin149]

POOKIE THIS IS THE EXACT VIDEO I WAS LOOKING FOR

[@BettyKateB]

I am so happy I stumbled upon this! I have been a huge stained glass fan forever. And now seeing that I could maybe learn this hobby is so inspiring! But buying the supplies seems very expensive for the start at least

[@Cecikim100]

Yes, it is expensive but if you are going to use it a lot of time is a good investment.

[@julialaborde8886]

What paper you use that have tak and stick to the glass. I use to do stain glass. I recommend you the safety glasses tha are close like a scuba mask. The tiny glasses gets in to the clothes and hair and layer can fall in to the eye. Never happens to me until one day I felt a glass in my eye. Wasn’t funny at all. There’s a fume extractor also for indoors and now the solder wire don’t have lead I think. Things change a bit. There’s is a water glass cutter that is a state of the art. It have a diamond string. For bigger pieces you use lead canals. For windows and stuff. Have a good luck with your endeavors. Look really pretty. It’s nice see new young people doing stain glass. Protect your lungs.

[@rebelfriend47]

This is extremely helpful. Ive been wanting to get into stained glass making, so this video and others ive seen are very helpful. Im excited for the other videos you have in store for this series

[@cassidyjewel3639]

Tysm for making this!! I’ve always adored stained glass. I only recently looked into actually making it, but this is the first video I’ve seen!! I’ve seen some pretty comprehensive articles/blog posts but the video format is so much nicer!!

[@Moriewna]

Brilliant video and the editing is superb. Not just talking about the supplies but showing what exactly it is used for and how is really great for beginners. Thank you.

[@lilanimesan]

With the sander, how do you sand small corners? What do you wipe your glasd down with? Do you have to etch the glass so that the foil will stick? What width of glass is best for beginners? How does cheap glass compare to more expensive glass? Also what tools do you recommend for someone in the eu?

[@melindagibson8606]

Fantastic video! This was the best instruction tutorial for anything I have ever seen! Great job and thank you!❤

[@blikbiznut]

This video is really usefull and great ! Thank you for all the details. At the moment, I'm thinking about working on stained glass so this video encourages me a lot to take the plunge.

[@mariakozak9316]

Thank you so much for this video! Love your work 😄❤

[@stellaltumi]

I was just considering getting back into making stained glass and I'm so glad I found this video :3

This is one of the most beautiful crafts i've seen so far. One day, i'll definitely start doing this too but unfortunately I don't have the money for it atm. I am really into drawing both digital and traditional and my parents are both also great at arts and crafts so it's definitely in my genes haha

[@user-op5yv2mu4x]

Dear Amaya, thank you for your video! Very informative and tastefull made.

Well I cheaked and it will cost 430 canadian $ to start this hobby

[@appletree13]

Yeah...why are all the cool hobbies so expensive 😭 Tho tbf if you take commissions it would start to pay for itself eventually

[@powerpuff4ever]

($315 USD) Honestly much lower entry cost than I was expecting

Yes, working on that video now! 😊

[@Cecikim100]

And the especial scisors please!

[@frankie_toledo]

Gracias por la ayuda 🫂

[@panicatthedogpark]

This is super cool, I never thought of stained glass as a hobby I could do myself! How expensive is stained glass making compared to other crafting hobbies? Also, how hard is it to create 3D shapes with stained glass, like on a lamp and things like that?

[@Jen99576]

Thanks so much for sharing! Your work is beautiful. Did you teach yourself this process, or learn some other way? I want to get into it but classes so are expensive on top of all the necessary equipment. Thanks!

[@Cecikim100]

It is a good question! I learned in a public school almost for free. In my experience, it is better start in a worshop, so you can use the tools there.

[@user-op5yv2mu4x]

Amaya, please advose: do copper and solderind add volume on the edges? Shall i (when gronding) make pieces like 1-2 mm less on the edges?

[@larkincook3101]

Hi! I have two questions. Are you always able to use your finger as a guide when scoring the glass? I saw that there is a guard, but I wondered if it was easy to slip. Also do you make your own patterns or do you have any recommendations for pattern making/sourcing?

[@AmayaJade]

I make my patterns and I’m working on a video going over how I do that. As for scoring the glass, I don’t ever have an issue slipping & you can always use the opposite hand to guide it!

[@kylenguyen200]

Okay so I'm not saying I will but _hypothtically_ if the price for the glass grinder is way too steep for someone would it work to just put a hole in a table and mount a rotary tool with a glass bit on it so the bit is peeking out of the table hole? How dangerous would that be? Will I for sure die? Asking for a friend.

[@melissasavard5173]

I want to start this hobby so bad

[@itdjazzy]

If you do, it's quite expensive and be careful of the solder. I used to solder with lead containing solder and developed lead poisoning.

[@kimqaisara]

Please make stained glass lamp.

[@360revolucion8]

So the silver from the soldering is always going to be the part of your end result? I like the way the copper looks on some of your pieces. There's no way having copper (color not necessarily metal) or bronze on staibed glass?

[@AmayaJade]

Yes but there’s patina that can be applied after to change the finish of the solder!

[@remstar6268]

Can I just ask could you sell these things and how much would you sell it for?

[@Luciver]

thank you so much for this helpful video! unfortunately, the soldering iron you linked is sold out-- any other recs?

[@AmayaJade]

looks like anything in stained glass has it in stock for around the same price! www.anythinginstainedglass.com/tools/ironsHakko.html

[@Luciver]

@@AmayaJade thank you so much!

[@pinkbunbuns]

I so want to try this! What is that tool you used to smooth down the copper foil?

[@Rachel_Shur]

A burnished she said she's also used the back of a paint brush!😊

[@Rachel_Shur]

Burnisher*

[@yeeyee1317]

How would you use a gel flux? Is liquid always best for stained glass?

[@AmayaJade]

It’s up to personal preference. I’ll be switching to gel because it dries slower & cleans up easier than liquid from what I’ve seen!

[@hellofood4147]

In another video of yours you showed a solution that you spray on the glass to clean it. Can you tell me what that solution is and is it used to remove the flux?

[@AmayaJade]

When I’m cleaning the sticker residue off the glass I use wd40 but when I clean the finished piece after soldering I use dish soap & a magic eraser!

[@alessandrobarbieri5859]

How much does it cost for all of that stuff

[@stephen1896]

How concerning would it be if soldering took place at my kitchen table? I have an old house and the kitchen is one of the most spacious and ventable places but lead and food surfaces is concerning. I wouldn't be soldering on surfaces I'd cook with or even usually eat at, but I can also wash. Great video by the way!

[@mayanderes9084]

I would not recommend that as the chance of lead poisoning would be much higher and it is very dangerous. Also whenever touching the lead/solder, please always wear gloves and do not touch your mouth or face. 👍

[@Mayaaanam]

This ate.

[@whynot07]

I’d like to see the place you make your pieces. I think this can’t be done inside of a house, can it (especially if there is a toddler)? Also, I’d like to know how you make your designs? If I take a course would it be possible for me to reach out and find beautiful designs or should I learn to design my pieces?

[@denisedejong2857]

dear amaya, i have a question, where do you get your grinder bits from because on amazone there are a lot of grinder bits and i don't know with one to get for the same grinder that you have.

[@AmayaJade]

Here’s one I found that should be the same one for this grinder: www.amazon.com/dp/B07X594P5Y?linkCode=ssc&tag=onamzamayajad-20&creativeASIN=B07X594P5Y&asc_item-id=amzn1.ideas.DHDWRS0BDEP4&ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_ons_mixed_d_asin

[@djricerice888]

How often do you cut yourself? My husband is against me trying out stained glass as he's afraid I'm going to be constantly cutting myself.

[@AmayaJade]

I’ll get a tiny cut occasionally but it’s mostly from handling larger sheets of glass & not paying attention!

[@gonrogue519]

How much would the parts be in total

[@liv_hann]

what do you do with leftover glass? it seems like a lot of waste, i’d love to do this but i’m worried about that

[@AmayaJade]

I keep all of it to reuse in other projects!

[@jabonnne]

where do you buy the waffle grid mat?

[@AmayaJade]

I have it linked in the description!

[@Mikichan85]

I would like to know where I can buy that on line. And where I can find the "pattern". In some videos, you clean the glass after the sticker off... With what? And how to do it at home? I mean, you talk about pulver and "toxic smell"... Can I still do it at home? Need a special room? I have so many other detailed questions...

[@AmayaJade]

I have all the supplies linked in the description. For patterns you can either create them yourself or find ones online! I clean the sticker residue off the glass with wd40. You don’t necessarily need a special room as long as it’s well ventilated but I do suggest having a dedicated workspace!

[@Mikichan85]

@@AmayaJade thank you so much for the infos. I'm thinking to start to do this hobby, that's why I was asking. I will make some research for the patterns. Thank you. ☺️

I struggle a little navigating online spaces, especially websites like amazon and the like. It isn't normally too much of an issue but i wouldn't want to get the wrong thing for something like this. (I promise I'm just a little lost when it comes to tech and it's not a troll!❤) I was wondering if anybody from the UK had followed this guide at all and managed to find any of these as most of the things in the description can't be shipped here and I'm honestly really struggling to find them but would love to get started trying to learn how to do stained glass. I figured asking couldn't hurt and this community seems friendly enough! I couldn't find a discord so i hope asking here is ok! Has anyone found a uk shippable alternative for these ones? Sticker paper Copper foil (I'm unsure if I found the right stuff.) Soldering Iron (I could only find one at 46 W or 70+ W.) 60/40 solder. Flux Sorry again if asking this here isn't ok! ❤
