Edge Finishing for Stained Glass (adding a beaded edge to a stained glass panel)
Here is a classroom demonstration on how I add a beaded edge to a straight edged project. I am using Solder Wedgies, EZ 40 PLUS Solder flux, and 60/40 solder from Ed Hoy's.
If you are using traditional stained glass flux with zinc chloride, you solder may not behave the same way. You could likely skip the re-flux/'re-dab' steps.

    • @LadyBerz
      @LadyBerz Před 5 měsíci

      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.

    • @LadyBerz
      @LadyBerz Před 5 měsíci

      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!

    • @LadyBerz

      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.

    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!

    • @LadyBerz
      @LadyBerz Před 8 měsíci

      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.
