If you live anywere near a supply shop, in the beginning you will greatly benefit from going there to choose glass, If there's more than one shop, hit them all. Each shop owner is attracted to different types of glass and different color choices and ranges. Most shops also sell scraps, and that is a wonderfully cheap way of picking up small pieces of interesting glass that can be used as accents. Just pick up ones that appeal to you. Later, with experience you will be able to look at a piece of glass and not only know who probably made it, but the name or catalog number of that glass. When you've reached that stage, then you'll do well ordering glass unseen. If you are not lucky enough to live near any shops, then I suggest you buy the glass that is deliberately chosen by the supplier to be an assortment of nice glass in a rainbow of colors, and which lend themselves to many projects. You may not get anything really thrilling that way, but what you will get is usually very nice and usable glass. And more and more glass manufacturers have created viewable images of glass samples, which you can see on their web sites, and now some of the suppliers that do web business also show these color samples in their online catalogs. At the beginning, you will want to overbuy the amount of glass for any given project, because your cutting skills haven't yet developed, so you've allowed some for breakage. Buy glass per project - and you may have more than one project going at one time. But if you see a piece of glass that is just simply stunning - but you don't have a project in mind - go aheard and get it. With the machine-made glass - the stock plain colors, or the wispy ones, etc. they will all pretty much be alike. But with the "art" glass, which is a mixture of several colors, no two piece of glass will ever be alike. If you hit one that is super - buy it. Another thing to keep in mind is the cuttability of the glass. Transparent glass is far easier to cut than the "art" glass. Any glass using the "opalized" or what you may well call milk glass, is far more difficult to cut. Any glass that is textured is harder to cut than non textured. And the "art" glass will pose a greater problem. Also, the darker the glass gets, generally, the more difficult to cut. So if you are gearing up to make a bunch of Xmas/Hanukah presents, choose easy cutting glass in the beginning, or a project that only uses small amounts of "art" glass. One thing to keep in mind is that ANY glass has some subtle texture/pattern/grain and you must take this into consideration when laying your pattern on the glass. Sometimes it won't make any difference, but quite often it really DOES make a difference. As far as possible, I like to lay the pattern pieces on a piece of glass in pretty much the order they will be in the finished project - especially with backgrounds. Sometimes you simply don't have the amount of glass in order to do that. In that case - especially when doing backgrounds, you want to make the textures/pattern/grain run in all various directions, as randomly as possible. If you have most in line, and only a couple out of line, it really shows up and looks bad. With things like leaves, etc. you will want the grain to run in the direction of the leaf, not up and down or sideways. And sometimes you are going to want to sacrifice a hunk of glass just to get into the middle where one particular bit is just what you want for something or other. And even with the machine made glass, there will be a subtle difference in the sides (top and bottom). Sometimes you can get away with not paying attention to that - indeed sometimes you may deliberately use both sides, but for the most part, choose one side or the other to be the "right" side. I keep my scraps and I have them sorted into colored baskets - 3 different sizes of baskets for tiny, medium and large scraps. When I only need a small amount of one color, I always check out the scraps first. As a matter of fact, I just made a tiny panel with pacan leaves and nuts as an 80th birthday present for my son-in-law's grandmother, and I did the entire thing out of scraps. Since glass is an expensive hobby, this really helps keep costs down.

Those of us who are full-time stained glass artists (i.e. we d= o this for a living and do not have another "day job") take care to meet th= e requirements for purchasing bulk quantities of glass and supplies from qualified wholesale distributors. These wholesale distributors have various qualifications you have to meet before they consider you a seriou= s client and will accept your business as a purchasing client. Usually thi= s is something along the lines of proof that you are a business (i.e. business license, state sales tax & use permit, separate business checkin= g account), and proof that you are serious about bulk quantity purchase (i.= e. first order must be at least $500 with $300 being in glass purchases). = Some wholesale distributors also want more proof that you are a retail establishment, and ask for a photo of your store front (i.e. you don't wo= rk out of your basement) and a copy of your Yellow Pages ad. For those who do qualify for wholesale purchases, you will be buying in bulk. No half sheet or quarter sheets. Full sheets of glass at a time. = Depending on the manufacturer, this could be between 5 square feet up to = 10 square feet of glass per sheet. If you are not lucky enough to live near= one of the distributors, then you will have to have the glass freighted o= r UPS'ed in, which involves substantial money. So we usually tank up a month's worth of orders in order to purchase a full crate of glass. This= is about ?25 - 40? full sheets of glass. Me? I know what my best-selling glass is, and usually order 5-10 sheets = of it at a time. For instance, I use a ton of Spectrum clear Artique glass,= so I usually purchase a full case of it to last me a few months. For particular projects, I order one or two full sheets. Right now I have 1 case of nothing but clear glue chip; 1 case of Spectrum clear Artique and= Spectrum clear seedy and waterglass; 1 case of mixed color Wissmach (mixe= d cathedral and opaque); 1 case of mixed low-end glass (inexpensive Spectru= m, Wissmach, Armstrong, GNA, Pilkington, Vasa); and 1 case of high-end glass= (Youghiogheny and Uroborus, with some Spectrum iridescent and Baroque). = Plus a full storage shelf of half and quarter sheet sized glass of variou= s colors and textures. Sometimes a couple of professional stained glass studios will go together= on bulk purchases in order to get a better rate on the freight charges. = Since I am not near a distributor, I have to pay freight charges. I usually combine my orders with Stained Glass Unlimited in The Colony, TX (about 20 minutes near me) and we split the freight charges. And if I ne= ed just one piece of a particular glass, and they have it, we work out a dea= l. I carry a lot of bevels, so if they have a customer who needs a particul= ar bevel they don't stock, and they don't want the have to put together a fu= ll order just to get that bevel, they'll send their customer over to me. So...since you're new, you probably don't qualify for wholesale purchases= yet. Patronize your local retail stained glass store, since now you kno= w the things they have to go through in order to supply you with an excelle= nt choice of glass and supplies. Later, when you decide to make the big mov= e into professional stained glass work (full-time), you can contact the wholesale distributors and ask them to send you their qualification sheet= s. One of the best things you can do is purchase sample sets from the manufacturers. This way you can look at what they make in order to selec= t the right glass for your project. I have sample sets from Spectrum, Bullseye, Armstrong, Wissmach, Pilkington & Vasa, Carolina Glue Chip, Youghiogheny, GNA/FNA, Uroborus, and Kokomo. Good luck with everything. Christie A.

Doing this and learning better cutter control solved my problems related to this kind of thing when I first started cutting glass some years ago. Again there is probably not true of all versions of stained glass but worse a problem with some manufactures types.

When I get ready to flip a copper foil piece that large, I slide a piece of plywood under it first, then manhandle the plywood up to verticle position, rather than trying to pull on the glass pieces. The plywood evenly distributes the weight of the panel, plus it distributes the stress when you're moving it from horizontal to verticle. Once the panel is verticle, move the plywood to the other side and lay the panel back down to horizontal using the plywood again. Christie A.

I'm making some jewelry boxes for a craft show.  The box lid is a 2" x 4" bevel and the sides of the box are the dichroic bevels.  I want to finish one in copper patina and the other in black.  Does anyone know if the patina will react the dichroic coating on the bevels.  I've never worked with dichroic glass so I thought I would through it out to the Bungi People.  I've learned a lot from you people.  I'm glad I found this site.

Thanks in advance,

Ken O.

Spectrum cathedral and Kokomo opalescent glass. Karen< Well, neither of those glass manufacturers are known for making "difficult" or poorly annealed glass, so it's not the glass itself. Probably stress introduced into the glass during cutting, which only manifests itself later, as was discussed in another posting. Christie A.

I've found it to be a pain and I've managed to mess up my fair share of heavily textured glass. It likes to break on the ripples instead of where you want it to break. Be very careful of scraps also. I've found this kind of glass in particular can have deadly edges that cut you. Try grinding by holding it almost straight up and down against the grinder wheel as your last grinding step. This takes the high spots off the ripples on the edges and makes foiling easier. I'll bet its going to be pretty.

Since these are large panels (i.e. 4' x5'), this takes a helper in the shop, so I'm stopped in progress when I work alone.

I had no idea that Y. glass could be problematic. What exactly is annealed? Is that the process where it is heated?< Annealing is the very gradual lowering of temperature from the glass's melting point (1500-2000 degrees) back down to room temperature. Annealing takes several hours, as the process is deliberately slow. It is easy to introduce stress into the glass if the annealing is done too quickly through certain temperatures (900 down to 700 degrees is a common stress point). The problems I had with 2 sheets of a specific color of Youghiogheny glass were a one-time only type thing. Youghiogheny glass is generally not problematic for cutting due to improper annealing. I just had some problems with that grape/ice glass Y1300RG one time - bad batch of glass. However, warming up Youghiogheny glass prior to cutting DOES make cutting this type glass MUCH easier. Cutting cold Youghiogheny glass in a cold basement on a cold winter's day is a sure-fire way to get nice Youghiogheny shards. Christie A.

I recently got a kiln, and am in the process of redesigning (and upgrading) my studio. You know how it is, one little piece means you end up redoing the whole room, like when you get one little throw pillow for your living room, and that means you have to change the color of the drapes, and why not paint the walls while you're at it, which of course means you have to get a new sofa because you realize the upholstery is getting old. . . . well, the kiln made me realize that I have to place a permanent outlet somewhere, and while I'm at it, I need to figure where a utility tub goes, and that means I need to know where the storage shelving goes, which brings me to my quesiton. (I've already painted the walls, in case you're wondering). The size of glass rack that was recommended in The Stained Glass Workshop, published by Arthur Brown, is 25 in. high by 20 in. depth, by unspecified length, with 8" spaces for the glass. To my mind, the both the height and width are a mite small. I was thinking about 28" - 30" high, by 24 " deep. Does this seem about right, or would you go with the smaller size that was recomended in the book? The 8 " spacing seems OK, but if someone has any thoughts to the contrary, please share. And how many spaces would you suggest for a small studio (parttime, not fulltime). Right now, I have my glass separated by color (white/clear; brown/amber; greens; blues; reds/oranges/yellows; grays/black; specialty) in lots of cardboard boxes on the floor. Eight spaces would probably be the minimum I'd need, if I follow this same organizational schema. I'd really be interested in everyone's opinions about glass racks, like do you like what you have, and what size would be your ideal? I guess while I'm at it, does anyone have any thoughts on the placement of a ceramic kiln (octagonal, about 24" D. by about 3 1/2' Ht.). I got this secondhand, to try my hand at stained glass painting. I know close to nothing about kilns.

Can anyone give me any tips on an easy way to make wood frames that would not require more than beginning woodworking skills? ---- For subscription changes, please mail to: glass-request@bungi.com To send to the list, please mail to: glass@bungi.com Archives available at http://www.bungi.com/glass From owner-glass Mon Nov 5 15:06:31 2001 Return-Path: Received: by daver.bungi.com via smail with stdio id for rglass-42; Mon, 5 Nov 2001 15:00:02 -0800 (PST) (Smail-3.2.0.94 1997-Apr-22 #534 built 2001-Jul-23) X-Path: yahoo.com!chicken0102 From: Heather Klem To: glass@bungi.com Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Subject: Gatewayed mail message Date: Mon, 5 Nov 2001 10:58:03 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <1970Jan1.000.0@yahoo.com> Precedence: bulk I'm looking for someone who could make me a Coca-Cola tiffany glass swag light.

Run scrap piece through router and turn it around and run through again. Make adjustments if needed. Cut all 4 pieces of wood running them through router in both directions. Increase the depth of cut at 1/8" intervals till you reach the right depth determined by the zinc you have on the panel.

Miter cut the ends of 2 pieces of wood with power saw or hand saw & miter box making sure the channel edge is on the shortest side of the miter cut. Fit this corner to panel and mark where next cut should be. This is where it gets tricky. You can't just measure from the panels' edge because the zinc edge is inside the frame. If not sure, cut long. Check fit to panel again, and keep trimming off small amounts till the length is right. Use corner clamps to hold the pieces steady. Very important that the finished frame is not too tight against the panel. Try to leave 1/16" of "float" space. Mark, miter cut, and fit the next side adding another corner clamp as you work around the panel. 6) With the frame in the corner clamps, mark and drill pilot holes for the wood screws.

Somebody else may have ideas for detecting the source and fixing your leak but, although my cutter doesn't leak, I no longer put oil in it anyway. I have a small, shallow, plastic container (with a screw-on lid) in which I keep a very small amount of oil. I simply touch my cutter to the oil before every (well, sometimes every second or third) cut. Some people also keep an oiled sponge or rag in the bottom of a jar and stand their cutter in it between cuts. And some folks use no oil at all!

Another way to get past the leaking thing is to just take a small wide mouth jar (baby food, etc.) Put a small amount of oil in the bottom and stuff a 1/4 piece of paper towel into the jar (or whatever fits) The towel will soak up the oil and when you need to oil your cutter - just run it gently over the oily towel. It gets just enough lubrication on the area where it really needs to be and with a nice fitting jar top, it won't leak all over your other tools.

There is a 'wick' in the barrel that moves oil from the handle to the head and it does this very well. Too well. Capillary action will cause the oil to pump itself out. With a cover over the head the oil just leaks from the top of the head around the barrel.

Toyo pistol grip cutters have a history of suddenly developing leaks from the joint between the oil-filled barrel and the cutter head spring-loaded mechanism. They ALL do this over time. Most folk, if they don't want to pay for a new Toyo cutter, just don't fill up the cutter, and just dip the cutter head into a small pool of oil, as per normal non-automatic cutters. Christie A.

If you dont you will almost always have a line showing where the foil ended. The rest is practice. If it's rough, wipe it off with a damp paper towel, reflux, and just put the edge of your tip on it, lift straight up. Keep doing that until smooth all the way around. It takes some practice, but you'll get the hang of it pretty quick. Every now and then you'll get something too hot and the solder will run down the side. No problem, just let it cool, then pick it off. It wont stick (since you've cleaned that area and it's not fluxed).

Here is my opinion. There may be a strength issue. I dont *know* that there is, but I certainly suspect that a copper foiled panel or suncatcher that is only flat soldered is not as strong as one that is soldered on *both* sides with a nice bead. As far as Im concerned a copper foiled peice that is only soldered on one side, and only tinned on the other is not finished, and looks to me as though the person making it was just lazy. My house had two stained glass windows in the dining room when I bought it. They werent my taste. I built two windows to replace those. When I took the original two out, I was disapointed to find they were only finished on one side. I had planned to give them to family members or friends that might have wanted them.

They are not permitted in the basement. I completely gave up stained glass while I was pregnant and breast-feeding, but am back at it now. I recently read a series of articles on lead poisoning, and even though my kids have all been tested (me too) and we don't have elevated lead levels, I am considering switching to lead-free solder. The so-called "safe" level seems to be getting lower all the time. I know it is more expensive, but what other differences are there?

The fume trap is SMALL, so you have to place it directly in the area where you are soldering, then move it around as you move your soldering. And it's not terribly effective. I resold mine.

However, if you're using a fan it works well if you place it close to your work on the far side of the table from where you're working, and have it directed AWAY from you. That way any fumes are sucked right off the table, and a constant supply of fresh air is coming in around you from over your shoulders. Of course you also need to have a window open so all the air sucked off the table has a place to go.

You may not be buying full sheets, but half sheets are related to the full sheet dimensions. E.g.. Spectrum sheets are about 20 - 24 inches wide and 48 inches high. Then you want to add a little to that, say 2 inches, to make the insertion and removal of glass sheets easy. So, I'd suggest some rack sizes of about 26 inches high. Of course, you will buy smaller pieces, and the large pieces will get smaller, so you need smaller racks too. My racks halve in size, going from 50 inches, to 26 inches, to 14 inches to 8 inches (so all right, I am not completely consistent.) The large racks are 42 inches deep, the 26 inch ones are 36 inches deep and the others are between 18 and 12 inches. Now, the width of the racks needs consideration. The two main factors here seem to me to be how much glass in the large sizes are you going to be storing? and how will the glass rest against its neighbours? In general, you do not want to be creating more storage than you need, so think carefully about your storage requirements. And the amount of space you can devote to storage rather than work space. If you are thinking of spaces for larger glass, you need to think of relatively small spaces. My 50 inches spaces are only about 3 inches wide, while the 14 and 8 inch high ones are about a foot wide. This is because the weight of the glass has to be considered. 10- 15 full sheets of spectrum weigh a lot! The glass is resting on its neighbours and so transmitting that weight. So there is a kind of inverse proportion to the height and width of the rack. The higher, the narrower the rack needs to be. The number of racks of any size you need will be determined by your space, the stock, and the need to get your hand into the rack opening without cutting your fingers, or compressing the glass. Make sure you have racks of differing heights. Storing small pieces with large pieces is a sure way of breaking the large pieces. The small pieces also get pushed to the back, and cause breakages when you push another piece against the unseen small one. If you make your racks of substantial material, you can stack them (but not higher than your head!). Always put a strong back on these racks for stability. Also consider fastening them to the wall with substantial bolts. I have found it necessary to have a soft material on the floor at the edge of the glass racks to avoid breaking the glass when pulling it out and accidentally letting it sit on the floor. Currently, I use a linoleum strip. For smaller pieces stored higher, I use the ledge formed by the lower and longer rack. And you will still need those boxes for the pieces too small for the racks! I hope this covers some of your concerns. Now, for your kiln. It's a big one, isn't it? I won't go into the stuff about kiln furniture, pyrometers, etc. Instead, I suggest you go to www.warmglass.com for lots of information. You could also buy Brad Walker's very good book, Warm Glass (you will find information about it on the site). The kiln is a fire hazard (small but definite). So It must be away from inflammable materials, it must have "ventilation" space all around it. You will also need space around the kiln to use the various controls and viewing ports. Nothing that could ignite should be above it. In placing it in the studio, you should consider the warmth it will give you in the winter, and overpowering heat it will cause in the summer. So you need a means of ventilating the space or area the kiln operates in. Again, you should go to www.warmglass.com for lots of information on kilns. Much of this is for fusing, but is still applicable to painting, especially safety, equipment and controls.

You cut the timber so it is half its thickness for the distance that is equal to the width of the timber. You do the same side for each end of the parallel sides. The two sides at right angles to the first pair of sides is cut with the eliminated timber on the opposite side to the first pair. So, when placed together they are the same thickness as the single piece of timber. You then glue and screw them together from the back. This forms a strong joint so the panel can be hung from the timber.

Each glass has its own annealing point dependent upon the particular combinations of materials in the glass. This point is the temperature at which the glass can align its molecules to eliminate most of the stress in the glass. Cooling too quickly at this point can leave a lot of stress in the glass that will eventually cause the glass to break. The annealing temperatures of most art glasses is between about 600 degrees Celsius ( I don't know the Fahrenheit equivalent) and 500 degrees. (I think Spectrum is about 510, but my memory is such that I have a reference book for the annealing temperatures of each glass that I heat.) Above the annealing point you can reduce the temperature as fast as possible. In fact you should reduce the temperature from about 750 C to 600C as fast as possible to avoid the devitrification that occurs in that temperature range. Below the lower strain point, about 30 degrees below the annealing point, it is not possible to relieve the stresses in the glass. So the annealing point is the optimum temperature at which to reduce stress. The amount of time you hold the heat there depends on thickness of the glass, and the characteristics of the kiln. The rate of cooling of the glass from the annealing point to room temperature depends on the size and thickness of the glass. It has been calculated that an 8" thick piece of glass would take about three months to cool from its annealing temperature. Normally a 1/4 inch piece would take a few hours, maybe 6 to 8. If you do not know the annealing temperature for the glass you are using, contact the manufacturer, use their web site or contact the Warm glass site (I think www.warmglass.com). If you cannot find out the annealing point you can do a shotgun approach. That is, you choose an average point, say 540 C, and take the temperature slowly down to 500 C. Slowly should be less than 30 C per hour for 6mm (1/4 inch) glass. This means that you will pass through the annealing point slowly enough for the glass to anneal. There are also tests to help determine the general region of the annealing temperature. (I have posted this to the list in the past). So, apologies to those for whom this was just too much information. But there is lots more of this stuff or Brad's warm glass site. Steve In message <1970Jan1.000.0@compuserve.com>, Christie A.

Sorta sandwiched it in....I loved the idea, I am capable of building a frame that way, I don't have the woodworking tools to route a groove in framing stock. I have a scroll saw, coping saw, hack saw, chisel and sander, I think that between them I could do the technique of overlapping corners on a wood frame and cutting molding to hold the glass in. I agree, I don't want to see the "back" of the work, I want a finished look on both sides. Now I need to make a panel just to practice framing.

Here is a voice from the past . Could it possibly be the humidity from your washing machine that makes the solder oxidize?? (....or all these bright balloons you have ;-)) Remembering your studio, it could be a combination of things. An answer might be (until someone can come up with a better idea), is to polish your projects with clear furniture wax to form a barrier between the solder and the ambient humidity. Send me a line off-group so we can exchange happenings (in my case a few dramatic ones!). I am only very recently back on-line myself and am lurking most of the time. All the best!

Sometimes it just takes lots of elbow grease to get a good copper patina. Some swear by heating it first, but I cant tell that it makes a difference. I use a rag, and scrub it on. Then more, and keep at it till you get the patina you want. Then throw the rag away. (it'll disintegrate on it's own in time) Good luck.

According to Joe Porcelli (master of patinas) you now need to steel wool over what you just patina'ed, and reapply a 2nd coating of copper patina. This one is the coating which is shiny copper.

Elisabeth, I thought maybe the problem could be the washer and dryer in my workshop. However, that has never been a problem in the past. We had a pretty humid summer and right now, being Washington State we are in our monsoon months and it is pretty wet outside. I've tried using baking soda in the dish soap when I clean the glass, but that hasn't helped. I will pick up some flux cleaner and see if that helps. I looked to see if I could get Fastwax in Washington but they don't sell it here. I'll have to order it. In the mean time I'll look for clear furniture wax. The only thing that is different is the flux that I use. I am wondering if the gel flux is the culprit. i will let you all know if that makes the difference. thank you for your input.

You all have a lot of great advice and knowledge that you share, thanks. I have been playing with stain glass (foiling technique) off and on for a few years. Until now I haven't felt that I could share any useful advice to you that one of you hadn't shared already. I do allot of decorative soldiering on my pieces. The way to achieve a good bead which does not run and helps tremendously with strengthening is to lower the temperature of your iron. I soldier between glass pieces by keeping the piece flat, holding my iron in one hand and the coil of soldier in the other. I touch the soldier iron with the soldier where the tip joins the iron so it can flow down to the tip steadily, I then move along the joint. With the right temperature you can get a good seam the first time round. It takes practice but is well worth the end results. This should be done on both sides. On edges of small pieces I hold the piece in my hand so the edge is upright and dab a bead on. Hope this is helpful, thanks Sally. ----- Original Message ----- From: To: Sent: Wednesday, November 07, 2001 11:55 Subject: soldering > I have only been doing stained glass for about a year and I have always made > "big" panels.

Yes James I do.  It's the only = way I know of=20 to control the temperature.  I' ve had wonderful success using = one. =20 I've been using one since I start stain glass and have never had a = problem with=20 it damaging my iron, but if it did it would be worth it to me to replace = the=20 iron.  Tips can always be used with a new iron if you get the = same=20 type.  I did a window for my daughter that had  a pair of lit = candles=20 in it, I used soldier to portray wax dripping.  I came out = well.

Be careful...you have to size just right so that the easel back will be held securely. I use the brass u-came to surround the edges of moderate size panels. I like the smoothe look it gives and the strength it adds. (I'm talking about maybe 8 in x 8 in to 12 x 12 inches.) So I always have bits hanging around when I do want to make a frame. I also do use a "L'il Notcher' to cut the came. So much easier than any other way I've tried cutting (hand tools only), but you have to plan on using came often enough to make that purchase worth while. Happy day...just picked up a special order today. Have another one almost ready to settle, once they get a chance to put some glass scraps in their window and decide that what I showed them is REALLY what they want.

But since it is on the back of the picture frame, I don't think it really matters. I mainly tack solder the corners and a few key points inbetween, so there aren't very many "blips" to be hidden. :) I usually clean my glass pieces with water and dawn dish soap, and dry them off very well. Try not to handle the edges with greasy finger tips, make sure the foil isn't old/outdated (it loses it's stickiness with age) and you should be good to go. Good luck!

Has anybody used this brand of solder? I think its 50/50, at least that is what I remember seeing somewhere in the store, maybe on the carton. It's nowhere on the label. It just doesn't seem to flow very well at all. I also have a beading tip on my iron (Weller 80), that I'm not sure, but may be a 700deg. tip. It has a 7 printed on the bottom. Would this be part of the problem, if the iron isn't getting hot enough? Just for information purposes, what solder melts the fastest and which is the slowest? 50/50 or 60/40 or 63/37 and what about leadfree solder? I tried Avril 60/40 solder, and it flows okay with this tip. Actually the Avril 50/50 which I used almost exclusively, did fine too. How can two 50/50 solders be so very different?
