Awesome video all should view... on the Top 10 Mistakes to avoid when learning stained glass...👍By Ed & Barb 1. Not enough practice cutting glass. Practice Practice Practice cutting window glass. 2. Not cutting your glass to fit your pattern correctly. Place the cutter wheel on the inside of the black line while scoring your glass. 3. Using too much cutter oil. Only use a little bit of oil with your glass cutter. 4. Using the wrong solder. Use 50/50 on LED and 60/40 on copper foil. 5. Not cleaning after applying flux and patina. 6. Using too much flux. 7. Do NOT Leave flux or patina on your glass project overnight. Clean your glass with a mixture of baking soda & water to remove flux & use glass cleaner w/ 91% alcohol to remove patina. 8. Not using a rheostat / temperature controller. 100 watt soldering Iron at a #8 setting. 9. Not following Studio Safety Precaution. Have / use safety glasses, Band-Aids, don’t wear open toed shoes. 10. Getting frustrated & giving up too soon.

Im a 4th year glazier apprentice and we don't do any stained glass work. I've decided not to be a tradesman after my time and dedicate my skills to lead lighting and copper works. It's the first time since picking up a guitar at 14 that I've been excited and so interested in something. I love this shit

I’m so glad I came across y’all’s channel and videos! I’m only three projects in and now I know why my cutter isn’t working properly. The directions only said not to overfill and it didn’t come with a pipette. It’s also not a see through pencil cutter, so I poured some in and have had the worst time. Now I realize it’s likely because I have too much oil in my cutter. I don’t have issues with the ones in my class. We also weren’t taught about patina or waxing so now we will need to scrub our finished projects and patina and wax them. Thanks again for another great video Ed and Barb!

Thank you for this video. I started doing (trying) 15 yrs ago. I took a few classes thought I could do it. I quit. Recently I decided to try again. This video helped me more than any class I took. There were no learning tips like u gave. I’m excited to try again. I would love to get good enough to make things for friends and relatives. Thank you again. You told things I never knew and they made perfect sense. Would love to take classes with you but I live in Missouri. Keep putting out videos. 😀

#10 applies for all crafts, as well as #1. Taking the time to learn the basics and then practice those, instead of expecting master craftsman results or even basic correct results straight away. Too many give up too soon because they compare their work with people who have already mastered the skills, or with the very few people that are able to instantly pick up crafts. Just like playing a musical instrument, you can't expect to watch a few videos, read a few books, pick up an instrument and record a track. It takes practice and MANY MANY MANY mistakes. *I haven't used this media before - don't even have any of the equipment, but keen to learn one day. Hope to learn more from you later!

If using a weller 100 wat temp control iron do I still need to use a reostat? I thought that iron maintains temp.
@ARTyRV
@ARTyRV Жыл бұрын
The iron has a maximum temp of 600 to 800 Fdepending on the tip. Solder melts at 320 - 400 F degrees. Use the reostat to maintain the perfect soldering temp. You’ll also find your tip lasts longer.
