5 Do the Other Side

In this weeks video, I show how a stained glass window has separated from the frame work and the steps to fix it.

The fifth thing is to do the other side. Place more foil directly over where you did on the first side, place re-strip and solder the panel.

Then clean and patina and it will be better than new.

4 Solder The Re-Strip

In this weeks video, I show how a stained glass window has separated from the frame work and the steps to fix it.

The fourth thing to do is Solder the re-strip onto the copper foil, forming a lead line, being careful not to add too much heat and cracking the glass.

3 Clip A Strip of Metal

In this weeks video, I show how a stained glass window has separated from the frame work and the steps to fix it.

The third thing to do is clip and place a strip of re-strip metal over the copper foil tape you just added. This will add a great amount of strength.

2 Add Copper Foil To Begin to form a New Lead Line

In this weeks video, I show how a stained glass window has separated from the frame work and the steps to fix it.
The second thing to do is add copper foil tape where you want to form a strong lead line. Clean the glass well so the foil will stick readily to the glass, use a craft knife or box knife to trim the ends of the foil.

1 Pull Metal Back

In this weeks video, I show how a stained glass window has separated from the frame work and the steps to fix it.
The first thing to do is pull the separated metal back into place. I simply nailed some wooden blocks to the work bench to give myself a clamping surface, then used wood clamps to gently pull the metal back into place.
