Probably your best bet for finding a class in your area would be to post a
message on the International Society of Glass Beadmakers forum.

The recipe for cement that I am publishing in the IGGA newsletter, comes from 
Steve Richard in Scotland (and is close to the one that I have used for 
years):
1 part boiled linseed oil
1 part mineral spirits (or turpentine)
7 parts whiting
1-2 TBSP lamp black or small amount of other dark colorant

I mix the liquids together and then slowly add the whiting until I get the 
consistency of thick molasses (on a cold morning, as Steve said...).

I usually add the colorant before the mixture is too thick.  Note: if you 
need the panel to dry faster, increase mineral spirits a little.  It 
evaporates quickly.

You didn't - nobody did, but many old recipes in books give that as an
ingredient.

No, perhaps *putty* is a better word than cemet.

Repair a few old windows and you will NEVER use
cement, or plaster of paris in your putty.

Robert,
        I see you have had several messages on the recipe for lead light
cement.  You mention difficulty in using the liquid cements.  There is
an article in the forthcoming International Guild of Glass Artists
Newsletter on the application of cement to panels.
        Contact Ann Baxter  <Awbaxter@aol.com> for information on
getting a copy
        or Jill Medyln <JzzyGlass@aol.com> for membership of IGGA.

The information is there.
Steve

Hi ya'll!

I think we're all busy again!   Since I've joined the list, in the past two
months I've purchased a graphon saw - mainly cuze of the cheaper price and I
just wanted to get a saw. It's been wonderful so far. It does vibrate, but
if you hold the glass tightly it doesn't seem to be a problem.

This last week I also picked up a Morton glass Safety break system. Wow, it
does make a difference if you get some specialized instructions and actually
see it being used! I'm not ready to give up my running pliers and grozier,
but had great results in cutting this past week!

The last thing I picked up was a circle cutter. I had tried cheapie $20 ones
before and usually ended returning them. I found one from Germany (Bohle),
made of real metal and suction cups to the glass! WOW what fun! Can't wait
to start using it for projects!!  One of the impromptu demonstrations I saw
was cutting a circle and using the safety break running tool to break the
glass - verry awesome. . . little waste of glass.

OK - I have to get back to work foiling and grinding! Have fun! Cut some
glass!

I picked up the following circle cutter:  Original Silberschnitt Cutter
Although since I bought it from a glass shop I paid twice as much as this
website is selling it for!  Still a great deal though.

I'm trying to find a good circle cutter, but I want one which cuts really
small circles - 2cm or 3cm diameter if that is possible. How small does
yours cut? And how much was it?

Hi ya'll!

I think we're all busy again!   Since I've joined the list, in the past two
months I've purchased a graphon saw - mainly cuze of the cheaper price and I
just wanted to get a saw. It's been wonderful so far. It does vibrate, but
if you hold the glass tightly it doesn't seem to be a problem.

This last week I also picked up a Morton glass Safety break system. Wow, it
does make a difference if you get some specialized instructions and actually
see it being used! I'm not ready to give up my running pliers and grozier,
but had great results in cutting this past week!

The last thing I picked up was a circle cutter. I had tried cheapie $20 ones
before and usually ended returning them. I found one from Germany (Bohle),
made of real metal and suction cups to the glass! WOW what fun! Can't wait
to start using it for projects!!  One of the impromptu demonstrations I saw
was cutting a circle and using the safety break running tool to break the
glass - verry awesome. . . little waste of glass.

OK - I have to get back to work foiling and grinding! Have fun! Cut some
glass!

The Glass Craftsman issue of Feb/Mar 2002 had an article about the
oncoming end of lead - probably 2007.  At first it will affect only
larger studios, but of course, once they don't provide the level of
volume of sales, the manufacturers will no longer make it.

Commonly available are lead free solders, but are there several types?
Lead free solder is very shiny - so it cannot easily be used for repair,
I wouldn't think.  Does it take patina?

They mention only two came replacements - one is Classic Ultra Came,
which is tin/copper and somewhat flexible.  The other is zinc, which
anyone who has ever used it knows has no bend at all, and so it is
virtually unusable inside a design.

So my questions to you are who has used any alternatives to lead, and
what did you use, and how did it work?

Probably those of you in the UK are more aware of the impending doom
than those of us in the US.  It is, however, a worldwide
environmental/health saftey issue, with legislation all over Europe and
in Japan, and maybe more countries and areas.

I may use this information as a basis for an IGGA article for the
newsletter. - Cecily

Cecily,
        I would like to know of the USA legal basis for the restriction
of the use of lead in windows.  We have had this scare before.  What are
the government guidelines? and why are only the larger studios affected
at first?

        Could you send me a copy of the article (or its drift)?  I don't
have access to it here.

        In the UK there is no hint (to may knowledge) of any restriction
in the use of lead for windows, new or restored.

Cecily 
As far as I have been able to find out after talking to the articles writer
and our suppliers over here there is NO discussion over here about having to
do without lead came in windows!!
I gather the lead ban is about the electronics industry and it has not been
thought in UK that it would have any affect on our 'industry'/craft - if
anything is known about it at all.
Wasnt the article written by a manufacturer of 'leadfree' came?

That's good to know.  However, considering the EPA reporting and the stained
glass "industry" falling directly under it, I think we can assume we will be
targeted too.  And, as soon as manufacturers start targeting lead free
products to those segments of former lead users that are covered, I think we
see an significant increase in prices, if not find the availability of  lead
supplies becoming a real problem.  One obvious result will be the closure of
lead mines, making the raw product scarce. - Cecily

A quote from a letter from Alan Sherry :
The European Countries (EEC) proposal to ban lead materials which takes
effect in 2007 covers primarily lead in electronics and electrical
materials.  It will be expanded later, but when to the glass industry, I am
not sure.  The Japanese roadmap seems to cover all materials.

The article, "A Lead-Free World is Almost Here", p34-5, was written by Alan
Sherry, president of Stellar Technical Products, a major soldering materials
supplier, and before that employed by Fry Metals.

His history of the banning states that in the US in 1988 the US senate first
attempted to ban lead in everything, until they realized it was used in
soldering high-tech weapons and circuit boards, and there was (at the time)
no replacement alloy.  So they banned certain non-essential uses like
pigments, dyes, ceramics, and plumbing solders, and a target date of 2007
was set to work toward in finding replacement materials for the essential
uses.  (I don't know how that affects lead in glass - such as lead crystal)

Meanwhile the Council of Ministers of European Covernments passed a
resolution for a January 2007 total ban on lead and other hazardous
substances.  (He doesn't mention the UK separately, but I thought there was
an impending ban separate from the Euro one.)

Anyway, the Japanese welding and electronics industries proposed in 2000 a
timetable for the ban of all lead based solders by 2005.  NEC and Fujitsu
plan to eliminate all lead from their products in December 2002,  and Sony
by March 2002,.

That will necessarily speed up the US and Euro industries, since
manufacturers will be producing things to the Japanese standards.

There is also a stringent new lead handling rule by the US Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) that started January 17 last year (2001).  The
threshold for reporting lead use went from 10,000 pounds to 100 pounds!  A
company is required to report to the EPA if it meet all three of the
following:  1) imports or manufactures or processes (uses) more than 100
pounds of lead (came and in lead compounds like solder).  2)  10 or more
employees   3)  included in certain Standard Industrial Classification (SIC)
codes (numbered 2000 to 3999.

The first reporting is due THIS JULY 1 for last year's use.  Call
800-535-0202 or www.epa.gov/tri/ to get Form R.  Failure to file can cost up
to $27,500 per DAY!!!

Who must file:  If your US business falls under SIC Code 3231 (Stained
Glass, or Windows, stained glass), have 10 or more employees (or equivalent)
and use (or sell?) more than 200 lbs of 50/50 solder a year.  Adjust for
60/40 solders, or use of came, etc.

As for the ban - I don't know if there is some sort of grandfather clause
that allows for non-complient uses, such as repairing stained glass
(particularly for historical listed architectural sites) .  But, even if
there is an exemption, certainly the ban will make glass repair a far more
costly process than it already is - which is already pretty ruinous for an
average church or private home. - Cecily

Tigertail is a wire string that is covered with nylon or polyester
fibers.

I put together a glass wind chime I'd made the components for in the
kiln.  I used Tigertail because that seemed to be the most flexible but
also the least likely to break.  Too often wind chimes seem to break if
they have wire, because the metal flexes in the same place, so the metal
fatique makes a break place.  And the fiber ones seem to just
disintegrate.

However, Tigertail is a real bitch to use!  Very hard to tie off in good
tight knots.  I was afraid to cut close to the knot in case I'd have to
tighten it,  In consequence it has this whiskery hairy look - pretty
dreadful.

How does one finish the knots using Tigertail?  Can I cut close to the
knots?  Can I apply heat (like a match) to the cut ends and knots, so
that i fuses together?

The wind chime sounds lovely, but it looks really really bad.  I
intended it for myself, but even I have to admit how unsightly it is.

And anyone who has a better idea for stringing the chimes if I ever do
that again, please set me on the right track! - Cecily

When tigertail is used in jewelry (bead stringing, etc), it's often
finished with jewelry crimp beads, tiny metal beads that you string on
the tigertail, then thread the knot tail back through and flatten down
with pliers, trim close to bead.  Or maybe you could use drops of super
glue on the knots to seal them before trimming?

Jewelery fitting stores have little tiny clamps that are used instead of 
knots on tigertail.

  Subject: Tigertail


  Tigertail is a wire string that is covered with nylon or polyester
  fibers.

  I put together a glass wind chime I'd made the components for in the
  kiln.  I used Tigertail because that seemed to be the most flexible =
but
  also the least likely to break.  Too often wind chimes seem to break =
if
  they have wire, because the metal flexes in the same place, so the =
metal
  fatique makes a break place.  And the fiber ones seem to just
  disintegrate.

  However, Tigertail is a real bitch to use!  Very hard to tie off in =
good
  tight knots.  I was afraid to cut close to the knot in case I'd have =
to
  tighten it,  In consequence it has this whiskery hairy look - pretty
  dreadful.

  How does one finish the knots using Tigertail?  Can I cut close to the
  knots?  Can I apply heat (like a match) to the cut ends and knots, so
  that i fuses together?

  The wind chime sounds lovely, but it looks really really bad.  I
  intended it for myself, but even I have to admit how unsightly it is.

  And anyone who has a better idea for stringing the chimes if I ever do
  that again, please set me on the right track! - Cecily

Tigertail is not meant to be knotted.... there are
small crimp beads that can be crimped with either
ordinary small pliers, or special crimping pliers,
which round the little crimps out and make them look
more like beads than hardware.

A newer, and, IMO superior product is now on the
market... it is called Softflex.  It is stronge than
tigertail, has less tendency to kink, and comes in a
variety of sizes and colors.  It is also finished off
with crimp beads, although the smaller sizes can be
knotted.  It's available from most jewelry supply
places.

Thanks everyone.  So I guess to salvage the wind chime, I'll use super glue and
snip.  And next time I'll get some crimping thingies.  I know that fishing line
really doesn't work, but I never thought of weed-eater cord.  Never thought of
crimping either, but that's probably because I don't do much jewelry. - Cecily

Ah HA! this was a blank message for me and it is in multipart mime -
which is consistant with other blank messages (it used html AND it used
text).  Funny how Bungi seems to send on the html rather than the text.

Sending mail in *mime* format has always caused problems for this list.
Even when the message comes thru okay it has all the garble in it.
Those of you who remember "Bob the Dinosaur" will remember his constant
crusade to inform people how to change their mail sending settings to
correct this.  Think it goes something like this............

Go to.....
Tools/Options/Send  then checking *plain text* under *Mail sending
format*.
*Plain Text Settings* should also be set to *uuencode*.

If you go to the Beadalon web page, then click on Bead Stringing Wire in the
left frame, you can see what it looks like and read a description. I usually
get the 19 strand and secure with crimp beads, although you can tie knots
with it, so they say. I've never tried tying knots. I also use Spider Wire
for some things, but for wind chimes, I use Beadalon wire exclusively. It's
much, much nicer than tigertail of any brand, including Beadalon Tigertail.
If you would like a list of where you can buy it, let me know. Elaine

Softlex is also a multi-strand metal (not sure what
metal) cable coated with nylon (?).  Not totally sure
how it is made, just that it is stronger and, for
jewelry applications, more 'drapable' than tigertail. 
It is, however, also more expensive!

Joan...

It's not just your opinion that softflex is a better product.
I whole heartedly agree.  I love it.  It's so much more flexible, once I
used it, I'll never use tiger tail again.

jsut a thought...you may be able to use jewelry crimp fittings to finish off 
your tigertail...I don't know what the diameter is, but you might find that 
crimps on a doubled back loop will work just fine.

Microsoft Customer,

     this is the latest version of security update, the 
 "8 Mar 2002 Cumulative Patch" update which eliminates all 
known security vulnerabilities affecting Internet Explorer and 
MS Outlook/Express as well as six new vulnerabilities, and is 
discussed in Microsoft Security Bulletin MS02-005. Install now to 
protect your computer from these vulnerabilities, the most serious of which 
could allow an attacker to run code on your computer.


Description of several well-know vulnerabilities:

- "Incorrect MIME Header Can Cause IE to Execute E-mail Attachment" vulnerability.
If a malicious user sends an affected HTML e-mail or hosts an affected 
e-mail on a Web site, and a user opens the e-mail or visits the Web site, 
Internet Explorer automatically runs the executable on the user's computer. 

- A vulnerability that could allow an unauthorized user to learn the location
of cached content on your computer. This could enable the unauthorized
user to launch compiled HTML Help (.chm) files that contain shortcuts to
executables, thereby enabling the unauthorized user to run the executables
on your computer. 

- A new variant of the "Frame Domain Verification" vulnerability could enable a 
malicious Web site operator to open two browser windows, one in the Web site's 
domain and the other on your local file system, and to pass information from 
your computer to the Web site.

- CLSID extension vulnerability. Attachments which end with a CLSID file extension 
do not show the actual full extension of the file when saved and viewed with 
Windows Explorer. This allows dangerous file types to look as though they are simple, 
harmless files - such as JPG or WAV files - that do not need to be blocked.


System requirements:
Versions of Windows no earlier than Windows 95. 

This update applies to:
Versions of Internet Explorer no earlier than 4.01
Versions of MS Outlook no earlier than 8.00
Versions of MS Outlook Express no earlier than 4.01

How to install
Run attached file q216309.exe

How to use
You don't need to do anything after installing this item.

PLEASE DELETE IT !! It is NOT from Microsoft. The attachment is a virus. We

            The Business

            iExalt, Inc. through its affiliated companies has positioned =
itself to be one of the leaders in the $3 billion Christian media and =
publishing market. Christian media and publishing is one of the fastest =
growing, most loyal, responsive and coveted market spaces today.

            iExalt manages one of the most popular Christian sites =
offering access to on-line web based sermon resources and provides an =
interactive outlet to both traditional and modern sources of information =
for today's Christian lifestyle.=20

            iExalt electronically publishes cutting-edge, =
information-packed, Christian books, bibles and reference materials =
including a monthly Christian events magazine, a Christian business =
directory, multiple regional Christian newspapers, and numerous online =
newsletters. In addition, iExalt produces "Life Perspectives" a radio =
program which broadcasts nationally 5 nights per week and is also =
affiliated with a very popular youth-oriented Christian radio program. =
iExalt also operates a comprehensive contemporary Christian music news =
website, maintains one of the largest speaker's bureaus dedicated to =
Christian Speakers and a booking agency for Christian Artists. iExalt =
generates its revenues from a number of media related sources including =
advertising, product and service fees, event registration fees, =
subscriptions, sponsorships and ticket sales for Christian events.

            The Opportunity

            Focus on Core Business. Dramatic market events in the =
dot-com industry over the past 18 months adversely affected companies =
perceived to be primarily "dot-com" or Internet companies which included =
iExalt, which is actually a Christian media business with only 3% of =
revenues derived from the Internet. As a consequence, iExalt re-examined =
its business plan and market potential and decided to focus on those =
aspects of the Christian media, entertainment and retail markets already =
in place and to divest itself of non-core products and services.

            On November 30, 2001 iExalt sold to UMC Ten Broeck, Inc. the =
assets related to PremierCare, LLC (owned by iExalt) for the sum of =
$1,000,000 cash at closing plus a deferred payment equal to one third of =
any EBITDA generated by the business in excess of $500,000 annually for =
a period of two years following closing.

                  Media Company Valuation

                  iExalt is a Christian Media Company which has suffered =
over the last 18 months the stigma of being grouped as an Internet =
company. With only 3% of its revenues generated by the Internet, it is =
easy to see that iExalt is not an Internet company; instead iExalt is a =
media company which has limited Internet assets.

                  The Company trades at a market cap (share price x =
shares outstanding) of less than $2,000,000. Other media companies are =
valued in the market at 4 to 5 x revenue. On this basis iExalt's share =
price should be in excess of $20 a share. Obviously the Company's =
earnings would have to be in line with the share price, but it does show =
the potential of the stock.

Any other ideas?    Ann...did this come up for your article for Common =

Actually I can recall someone recommending sticking on contact paper
to help act as a barrior.

That same article I wrote about is reprinted in the Glass Art magazine
that just arrived.  It looks to be word-for-word, but I didn't check it
closely.  Oddly enough, I didn't see any mention that it was a reprint.

I think that is a publishing etiquette nono, if that guy submitted it to
two publications at the same time.  For one thing, the first periodical
will consider it to be under their copyright, and the second periodical
is then legally at fault, through no fault of their own.

Anyway, has any one used any of the leadfree cames? - Cec

Cover the back with contact paper, leaving a 1/8" gap around the lead. =

This helps reduce putty-creep, but does not eliminate it.  We use sharpen=

wooden chop sticks to dig out any putty and/or whiting which creep in.  Y=

can also rinse off the panels with a water hose to get rid of the excess

Instead of sharpened chopsticks to clean out the textured glass,
couldn't you use bamboo skewers from the grocery store?  Already
sharpened anyway.  Maybe they break too easy?

Seems like ordinary round toothpicks, or maybe the orange wood manacure
sticks.  Also, sculpting tools probably will get in there to clean
things out too. - Cec

  Instead of sharpened chopsticks to clean out the textured glass,
  couldn't you use bamboo skewers from the grocery store?  Already
  sharpened anyway.  Maybe they break too easy?

Thanks so much to everyone for their tips and helping me remember the =
contact paper tip.  Here are a few things I learned, things that did and =
didn't work for me...perhaps useful for CGG article.  I hope there's a =
tip or two in here that folk can learn from.

1) there is a reason everyone says to putty the front and back of =
windows on the same day.  I was using a looser batch of putty and some =
of it seeped through.  Great, except...I did 4 fronts Sat, 4 fronts =
Sunday and didn't get back to it until today, as I was unsure how to =
handle deeply textured glass on the back.  So now I'm picking dried =
putty off the back of the glass.  Recommendation: do front and back of =
windows simultaneously...you'll only make this mistake once!!

2) Read on a board somewhere to use mineral spirits instead of =
turpentine in the putty mixture as it cleaned off the glass better.  I =
tried it with these windows, and didn't notice much difference in how it =
cleaned off the windows.  On the other hand, I was high all weekend as =
the fumes are MUCH worse than turps, even with windows open.  =
Recommendation: stick to turps.

3) My experiments with deeply textured glass.  There is no point putting =
contact paper or masking tape on pieces less than 1" wide.  It merely =
comes off while scrubbing with whiting and the gunk gets in anyway.  It =
would probably work on larger more rectangular pieces though.  Clean it =
up right away, the soft gunk comes out if you brush WITH the grain of =
the glass.  Toothbrush is less effective than natural bristle scrub =
brush for this purpose.  Vaccuum crumbs up as you go.

4) Use one of those cheese shakers found in restaurants to dispense =
small quantities of whiting as needed.  You'll use less whiting (my =
consumption went down 60% when I started doing this) and your studio =
won't look like a bag of flour exploded when you're done.   Your hair =
won't be grey when you're finished.  Ooops, unless of course it was grey =
already :) :) :)

5) For pointing I use a slightly sharpened chopstick, which was useless =
for getting into the cracks of the glass texture as the point wasn't =
fine enough.  I used a periodontal probe (get one used from your =
dentist) which was very effective for this...analagous to the pointed =
manicure stick someone suggested.  I've used those and they wear out.

6)  Puttying and whiting is without question THE most obnoxious and time =
consuming part of the entire lead came process.  Compared to finishing =
up copper foil projects after the solder stage, allow about 4X as long =
for a panel of comparable size.   Recommendation: Train someone to do =
this as soon as possible!

7)  Use a shop vac with a sawdust bag installed and a bristle brush =
attachment to clean up used whiting, bits of putty, etc. as you go.  =
Each time you add whiting and it goes grey and crumbly, vacuum.  When =
you point, vacuum.  Vacuum the work table around your panel.  Vacuum  =
This turns the project from a dirty mungy job that requires complete =
studio cleaning afterwards to one that's manageable, although  you =
should still expect whiting dust throughout your glass racks!  Done this =
way it's possible to dispense with wearing a face mask while mucking =
with whiting.

Still not convinced she likes puttying, but knows she has to put up with =
it...

I always use 1/4-3/8 hard wood dowels.. An electric pencil sharpener works
great at putting a good point on them too....

I agree.  What a generous and thoughtful thing to do.  I now have a synopsis of all the suggestions along with realife firsthand commentary on what does and does not work!

Thanks.

Amen sister!!!

I have a helper that works for me 10-50 hours per week as needed and guess
who get the honor and privilege of the putty jobs! Drawing,building etc is
great but if I could wish one nasty job away it would be this...

Nice follow-up, Carol!  The only thing I might add is to consider using 
sawdust instead of whiting.  It's a lot kinder to the lungs and doesn't get 
blown around the studio the way whiting does.  Do you have a ready source 
of redwood up north?  I was originally taught that the tannins in redwood 
aided the came-blackening process.  This may be urban legend!

I typically "make" sawdust specifically for this job by attaching a plastic 
bag up the sawdust-diverter hose on my radial-arm saw and kerfing (to 
death) a piece of scrap redwood.  Doesn't take much wood to make lots of 
sawdust this way!  Only in a pinch would I rely on the dirty stuff I'd 
sweep off the floor.

since i don't have any wood working equipment in my studio, i just head 
over to my local large hardware store with a big green trash bag (for those 
of you familiar with it, it's home depot) and have the guys who work the 
big saws fill it up. so far, they've been happy to get rid of the stuff for 
free. rubbing the sawdust over the lead does give it a nice dark glow.

i'll bet you can get tons from lumberyards too, but i haven't tried that 
since the people at home depot have been so accommodating. <g>

If you get sawdust from someone else, just make sure it's not "dirty" ...as 
in swept off the floor.  Little bits of rock or other hard foreign 
particles could scratch the glass.

Hi, I am new to stained glass(about a month), but I really like it and would
like to find out more.  I also belong to the Sheltie list and I have learned
a wealth of information from those people in the last six years and I am
hoping the this list will offer me the same.

My first question:  I am getting a little better on cutting me pieces and
grinding them to fit, but my soldering sucks!  I don't know if the temp
isn't right or if my tip needs to change.  I just have a single temp with a
head that looks like a screw driver.  I was noticing at work that the solder
iron my co worker uses for fixing monitors has a pointed tip and also a
smaller flat tip. I realize that we are talking about two completely
different kinds of soldering, but I do seem to have big lumps and was
wondering if a smaller tip would help.  I probably just need to learn more
control.

Any suggestions are appreciated!  I am looking forward to learning lots for
you guy's!
 Thanks!

Hi, Melody.  I, too, had a time with soldering when I first started doing
glass.  I did find that using the smaller tip on my iron was helpful.  My
iron is single temp also and that hasn't been a problem with copper foil
soldering.  I connect it to a rheostat if I have to do lead came, as the
temperature needs to be lower for that.

Hi Melody,
Welcome to the wonderful world of glass.  Don't worry too much about your 
soldering, just keep practicing, practicing, practicing.  That is what 
really works the best.  Here are a few tips:

If you do not have a rheostat.... get one.  This is an electrical 
temperature control box that you plug your iron into and then plug the 
box into an outlet.  The rheostat will help regulate the temperature of 
your iron.  On a practice piece try your soldering out with different 
temperatures and see where your iron works the easiest.

If your temp it too hot the solder will be to and sink to the other side 
of your work.  It will also be more difficult to creat an even bead, your 
glass will get too hot too fast and my cause stress fractures and crack.

When you find a temp that works well for you... try this: Hold your 
solder with a fairly long piece extended from the spool just in front of 
your tip.  Start to solder by loading the tip with solder at a point 
where your pieces are side by side. In other words, do not start your 
solder line at a junction. Pull the solder over a juction,soldering all 
points of the juntion and then back to a straight section.  To stop the
 soldering, pull the tip of your 
soldering iron off the seam at the middle of a straight section onto the 
glass at a slight angle, like tapering off the line. Feed the solder to 
the iron as you go, carefully watching the bead.  You will know when to 
feed more solder by how the bead forms on your lines.  This will take 
practice.  You are combining several factors when you solder.  Using the 
right amount of flux, having your iron operating at the best temperature, 
soldering well cut and foiled pieces. 
     Each step in your process is very important to the quality of the 
final product.  And it will take practice.
     Recently I came across a piece that I made when I first started 
glass, I was so proud of it!!  It really is interesting to see how my 
work has improved over the years... needless to say that piece reminds me 
of that!
      I hope this helps a little....  and stay with it.  Working on glass 
is worth it.  You will get a wealth of information from this list, I sure 
have.  I have learned more from this list than any other source.

Good Glassing,
Barbara

if you're talking about copper foil, the lumps mean that your iron isn't hot
enough, or you're moving it to quickly. if it's a small one, it takes time
to get back to a high enough temperature once you start a run.

go slower, get a more powerful iron, or a hotter tip. the most common tip is
a 1/4" chisel tip.

Wasn't there also an article in the last stained glass quarterly newsletter
(the freebie one from glass shops) that had a community panel they were
making in New York? (I don't have my copy with me at the moment.)

I thought that it would be a great idea if people shared their favorite tips 
that they picked up from bungi.  I am sure that all of us use certain 
techniques because of something they picked up here.  This site is a great 
place to get an answer to a specific question you may have, but it is also 
fun to "eavesdrop" on posts that discuss areas out of one's expertise.  Along 
the way, we all pick up useful information.

Personally, I love the tip someone left about cleaning glass with isopropl 
alcohol before foiling it.  I always felt uneasy rinsing the pieces in the 
kitchen or even bathroom sink.  I like this much better and it dries so fast! 
 I also appreciate the encouraging comments I got about lead-free solder, 
which is what I use most of the time now.

Why not post your favorite tip(s)?

Melody,
        I see you are being recommended to get a rheostat for your
soldering iron.  If it is powerful enough to generate sufficient heat,
the rheostat will certainly reduce it, but at some costs.  
        This has been a topic of some controversy on this list in the
past.  I am of the school that says "get an iron with built in
temperature controls and you won't need a rheostat".  The costs are
about the same unless you are going for cheap, cheap.  You can get bolts
of different temperature ratings for the irons - the most common being
700 and 800 degrees F.  The 800 is better for copper foil, the 700
better for calme.  
        I know there are those who do decorative soldering, and insist
that a rheostat is necessary.  They are probably right.
        Still, there is nothing better than a temperature controlled
iron, as many who have left an iron on overnight and still had an
operating iron.  Leave one with out a temperature control and you might
have only a blown fuse.  Various melt downs are other possibilities.
        Usually the 100 watt irons are sufficient.  I have a couple of
200 watt irons one with a 700 and one with an 800 bolt in.  200 watts is
excessive, but there are no cool periods in soldering, as the bolts are
big enough to hold heat that avoids cooling too much and sticking while
running a bead.  It makes soldering lead calme quick too.

Hi gang,
Yep, same problem.  I used to get the newletter in the (snail) mail 
but let it lapse, so I signed up to have it start again.  If anybody has 
a solution to the printing problem, I'd be interested.  If not, maybe 
the thing to do is contact Spectrum....

Hi gang,
	Nope.  When I printed the Newsletter from Adobe Acrobat, it had only the
pictures integral to the article.  The printed text IS artistically arranged
around the pictures of glass projects mentioned in the article.  I don't
know what I did.  Just downloaded and printed.

(is that a word? lol)  i've been playing around making my own glass patterns pretty much, just making glass projects of pictures, like our hockey team's logo, a fairy, frog, etc.  i'm doing this rocking horse and with every picture i find i can't quite figure out where to put the breaks in the "background glass" where it looks good.  i undertand to follow natural lines if there are points coming out but like this rocking horse, its all pretty rounded except for the mane and tail, and most of that is rounded.  also, i am currently using (forget the name of the glass) a clear glass with blue swirls for the sky, looks good, but for the bottom part i was trying to go with a similar type of glass only brown.  got it all put together, soldered up, stared at it for several days and...yuk.  way too busy.  now i have to remove that glass and figure something else out for the bottom half (removing soldered glass:  another new technique i get to learn!)  any suggestions?  maybe brown water glass for the lower section or that other bumpy glass?  what would you real artists do?!?

I usually place my subject within an environment, as opposed to standing 
alone, if its to be a panel and not a suncatcher.  It gives the subject a 
place to be, adds dimension, and allows the opportunity to use the background 
image for lead lines.

For instance, I would put a rocking horse in a child's room, probably with a 
"corner wall" behind it, so there is one vertical lead line... and there 
would be the one-point perspective of lines where the floor meets the walls, 
creating a set of two diagonal lines near the bottom third.  Maybe some toys 
on the floor?  A ball, blocks, etc. could all be incorporated, some in front 
or behind others, to make the background appear natural.

If your horse is outside, with the blue wispy sky, why not make the bottom of 
the panel green as if it were grass, adding a tree behind the back third of 
the horse for vertical lead lines?  The leaves of the tree could extend over 
the horse, and the mane and/or tail lead  lines could extending to the tree 
or branches in the background.

Personally, I avoid any lead lines that don't have a purpose, except to break 
up the background, so I guess my designs include many more elements.  

Just my methods (to my madness),
Ann

Hello all,

I've learned a method I think is easier than "unsoldering" for removing large 
pieces of damaged glass from an assembled panel.  Use a cutter and score the 
damaged piece of glass diagonally in both directions making a grid of score 
lines.  Break the glass out from the center, then use your soldering iron and 
a pair of pliers to remove the copper foil still attached to the panel.  (The 
final step should probably be selling on eBay all the glass shards that 
you've created.)

Pat

If you put the main image into a landscape or other situation, you can
use the lines of that background to provide the lines that will enable
the main image to be incorporated into a panel.

Alternatively, you can do what is done in older panels, and have an
almost regular grid in the background.  Although this would rule out the
use of the Baroque glass, as it does not fit well with a regular grid.

Almost all images need a context to look well, both visually and
intellectually.

The glass with swirls is Spectrum's Baroque (TM) glass.  It is a difficul=

glass to successfully use (as you learned) because of it's uniqueness. =

Waterglass below and Baroque above will make the rocking horse look like
it's not sitting on the ground.  I would suggest a textured root beer dar=

brown streaky glass as the base.

Unsoldering - flux both sides of the solder line first, then hold the pan=
el
up on edge, and let gravity help pull the melted solder down.

Best wishes.

Can you tell me where I can get decals to fuse in bottles.  I have seen a 
bottle with a sea scape design and another with birds.  I would love to try 
these.  I have looked for decals and can't seem to find any that is a design.
If you have any information on bottle fusing it would be great.
 My niece sent me a bottle of wine and I was thinking of slumping it (when it 
is empty of course)  But it is not a fancy bottle it is just plain. I was 
thinking I would slump it to cut cheese on. include a knife and send it to 
her with different cheese.
I would really like to find the decals but if not 

Do you know if I could slump colored glass to make 4 little legs on outside 
of the bottle, and also  put small colored pieces of glass inside the bottle? 
and slump it together.  Any ideas would be helpful.
Thanks Bob

It comes through fine when sent directly to my home (I'm using Netscape),
but when it passes through the bungi list server it comes out blank.  Take
a look at your settings and see if you are sending text only, or HTML only
or both (multipart).  There is also "Using the quoted printable MIME
setting".  I cannot see that this makes a difference, since I can trigger
the blank message at Bungi myself without that, but using HTML.  But when I
do have it on, again, I only have problems if I've done something to invoke
the HTML. - Cec

Forgot to mention another means to work in lead lines in the background: 
creative use of borders.  You can make single or multiple borders,  or your

Hi all,
I'm working on my biggest piece yet - a half-round about five feet wide and
2.5 feet high.  The closer I get to being finished, the more nervous I get
about the prospect of transporting it to its final destination!  It will be
installed in a bathroom above a tub - rather high up on the wall.  We had
to put a piece of plywood over the tub and stand the ladder on top of that
to get the measurements.  So, hoisting the finished piece into place will
be interesting.  I had thought I'd strap it to the piece of plywood I have
it on while I work on it, but that will really make it heavy and difficult
to get one's hands on the glass itself to slip it into place.  My client
will have a trim carpenter there to do the actual installation, but I want
to make this go as smoothly as possible.  This piece is going to be
beautiful, but has been a bitch to work on.  After 6 years of doing glass
rather successfully, this one has made me feel like a neophyte again!  Have
hit more snags than I care to count.  Want the final steps to go well.  Any
suggestions?

Steve, Elisabeth and Elizabeth in the UK and anyone else in Europe:  Can
you find out for me what the government agencies in the UK are that
would be in charge of the lead free movement?  Since I understand it is
a Euro issue, I also need to know who to contact in the "Eurocracy".
What metals manufacturers in the UK and Europe supply solder and lead
came?

Does anyone know how the lead free business affects the making of glass
- as in lead crystal?  I do know that Steuben and Waterford no longer
make baby bottles of lead crystal, for instance, and for many years
people have been warned not to store wine or other spirits like sherry
in leaded glass containers.

Thanks - Cec

Hi,
   It's difficult at best to offer opinions on glass aesthetic ideas
without seeing the actual design, but I'll offer such as I can. 
   First, I'd ask why you used a rocking horse?  No, that doesn't quite
read properly.. what was it about the rocking horse design that
intrigued you enough to do that design in glass?  Whatever that design
element is.. rather seems to me to be the focus of your panel, so your
"background" glass doesn't necessarily have to follow the same sorts of
design elements.  
    Frankly, I generally prefer to design such "focused" panels such
that the main design is central, and the background design draws the eye
to that central design.  Often I've done panels as medallions, the
design centered in a larger circle of glass.  My lead lines are straight
lines radiating out from the center of that circle, as many lines as I
may need to balance out the design, and have enough joints to begin and
end the central design pattern.  Rectangular panels seem to me to be
harder to do with such a "focus" since our eyes tend to follow the
horizontal and vertical lines, but it can be done using similar
radiating lines, just put the center spot where the lines radiate from,
at a point where your eye will be drawn back to the rocking horse.
  If your rocking horse pattern has a lot of pieces, and is fairly
detailed, I'm not sure that you're helping yourself by using the baroque
glass, simply because of what you've already seen, the background glass,
those blue swirls are visually competing with the rocking horse design. 
You might try a glass that has less contrasty swirls, or experiment with
an opalescent glass as the background, I like the juxtaposition of
cathedral and opaque glasses, but that's just me.
   There are many ways to remove soldered glass.  One that works for me
on smallish sorts of panels, is to flux the joints, and then position
that area so that it hangs over the side of my work bench.  Then I bring
my soldering iron up underneath the panel and heat the joints.  The
solder simply runs down the iron, and hits the floor.  This removes most
(but not all) of the solder.  Then, once it's cooled down, I'll take a
small chisel, or Xacto knife, and start peeling up the foil on one side
of the panel, and do the same on the other.  If you're careful and
patient, you can get the foil up fairly well.  Sometimes a bit more heat
with the soldering iron, will free up a portion of the peeled up foils
so that you can grab it with some small pliers, and begin to work it
free of the rest of the panel.
  Safety note here.. don't do any of this whilst wearing open toes shoes
or sandals.  Don't put much pressure on the panel, and work carefully. 
Sometimes you may have to sacrifice a piece of the glass, just to get
enough of the foil out of the way to continue removing the rest of it,
but you shouldn't have to destroy all of the glass pieces just to get
them out.  Wear eye protection, as small hot blobs of solder really
don't react well with your eyeballs!
  Have some fun, and enjoy this experiment.. figure out a design that
works to suit your eyes.  In the end, that's all that really matters.
  Peace  -Gerry Phibbs, IGGA

Don't know about the 4 little legs.  Do know about putting small
colored pieces of glass inside the bottle for slumping.  Unless
the small colored pieces of glass are the same COE as the bottle
(and you will not know the COE of the bottle), there is a good chance
the small pieces of glass inside the bottle will cause stress fractures
and breakage due to different COEs.  My best success with this
technique was to use very tiny pieces of Uroborus glass.

It's not clear to me exactly what is worrying you.  This will be cumbersome,
just take it step by step and ask for help when you need it.    Is it the
transport?  Use your glass racks so it is transported vertically, same as
doors and the other projects you've delivered in the past 6 years.

Using a plywood "sandwich" is a great way to move things around, especially
if you leave the wooden bar you used for the bottom of the jig in place to
make sure your glass can't slip out the bottom.  Not sure why you're
bothered about this...just ask for help to move it.  Two reasonably strong
and healthy people should be able to move it.

Are you worried about it having enough reinforcement?  (I assume you've
laced your design with strongline).  If the panel is floppy when you're
handling it now in the studio, it's probably a sign you should add rebar
before you deliver it.

Are you worried about getting it up the ladders?  Use 2 ladders and have the
trim carpenter take one end while you take the other up? (Take it out of the
sandwich before you do this).

Hope this has helped...I'm shooting in the dark about your exact concern.
For me the scariest part is nailing the trim holding the panels into place.
Solved that problem y'day by buying a power brad nailer.  Compressed air, no
more hammer near the glass!

thanks guys and gals, for all your suggestions.  i had a light go off in my 
head reading all these ideas!

as far as the reason the rocking horse was chosen, its a collective favorite 
of a friend of mine so i'm doing it for her birthday.  i think it will turn 
out well.

again, thanks, all!

She's probably like me! Just afraid that what can go wrong will!! (slippery
hands, ladder moving, etc.) I agree with just taking your time and asking
for help in the moving and

I have another question regarding the handling/making of large panels.  I'm
finally getting started on one that I mentioned before (and received very
good shipping information back in December) . . . .on the reinforcing issue
. . . This panel will be approximately 39" x 39" square. I'll be using 3/4"
zinc around the outside and was going to use "Strong Line" reinforcing
within the panel? Will this be sufficient? I had thought about using rebar -
but thought that might be overkill. The panel will be installed in a rigid
frame in a bathroom (by a contractor).

Any helpful hints will be most welcome.  Thanks

Hi all...

If some of you wondered if I fell off the Earth without saying good bye, the
answer is...Nope.

Ive had a rough few weeks.  I went out of town suddenly because my dad was
very ill, and he died the next day.  Two weeks later, Im home.

Some things were left up in the air when I left...
Cheryl...if you are still interested, I'll check on getting you some came
liner. Let me know (if you are in town!).

Meanwhile, I'm way behind on my life and my *in* box is overflowing.  May
take me a while to catch up.

Suzanne

They break way too easy.  I like to use wooden dowels sharpened in a pencil
sharpener.   You can work alot faster when your *pick isnt breaking in your
hand.

To get putty out of glue chip (my least fav glass on Earth)
I use wadding that comes in a can for polishing chrome.

Thanks Carol!

As always, good information for me to digest. Stongline in lieu of restrip,
sounds good. Hopefully it will be shipped before mid-June or so (depending
on how much playtime gets in the way of my worktime!)  It's to be a panel
of Hummingbirds and Hibiscus flowers, more on the opaque side, but should
be very pretty and colorful.  I'll be updating my website soon to get some
of these projects "out there" for viewing!!  :) Now to find the time!

Thanks again,

Marci

Confidence...visualize yourself doing things successfully and you will be
successful. 

I do remember the shipping conversations.  I've often wondered if it
arrived alright... 

Definitely use strongline (not restrip).  I would use several runs of
strongline.  Remember it needs to run in one continuous strip from edge to
edge and be soldered to the zinc outside edge for max. support. Where the
lead line bends around corners to follow a design, you will bend the
restrip so it also bends...what's important is edge to edge, not (within
reason) how many corners there are. 

Whether to run it horizontally,  vertically or even diagonally is a
judgement call and depends on the design.  If when you look at the design
the panel shows any possibility or tendency to "fold" along a lead line,
you want to run it perpendicular to that area.	It's so design-specific
it's difficult to make any real suggestions without seeing the design. 

If you add rebar you will need to have clear communication with the
installing contractor that the long tails you will leave on the rebar need
to be inserted into the frame itself, not merely trimmed to fit the
opening. I've found that contractors want to take the easy way out.  If the
ends are trimmed off instead of becoming a structural part of the house,
you might as well not add the rebar.  It supports nothing and will in fact
be a drag on the panel itself.

She's probably like me! Just afraid that what can go wrong will!! (slippery
hands, ladder moving, etc.) I agree with just taking your time and asking
for help in the moving and 

I have another question regarding the handling/making of large panels. I'm
finally getting started on one that I mentioned before (and received very
good shipping information back in December) . . . .on the reinforcing issue
. . . This panel will be approximately 39" x 39" square. I'll be using 
3/4" zinc around the outside and was going to use "Strong Line" reinforcing
within the panel? Will this be sufficient? I had thought about using rebar
- but thought that might be overkill. The panel will be installed in a
rigid frame in a bathroom (by a contractor). 

Any helpful hints will be most welcome.  Thanks

Nancy 

It's not clear to me exactly what is worrying you.  This will be
cumbersome, just take it step by step and ask for help when you need it. Is
it the transport?  Use your glass racks so it is transported vertically,
same as doors and the other projects you've delivered in the past 6 years. 


Using a plywood "sandwich" is a great way to move things around, especially
if you leave the wooden bar you used for the bottom of the jig in place to
make sure your glass can't slip out the bottom.  Not sure why you're
bothered about this...just ask for help to move it.  Two reasonably strong
and healthy people should be able to move it. 

Are you worried about it having enough reinforcement?  (I assume you've
laced your design with strongline).  If the panel is floppy when you're
handling it now in the studio, it's probably a sign you should add rebar
before you deliver it. 

Are you worried about getting it up the ladders?	Use 2 ladders and
have the trim carpenter take one end while you take the other up? (Take it
out of the sandwich before you do this). 

Hope this has helped...I'm shooting in the dark about your exact concern.
For me the scariest part is nailing the trim holding the panels into place.
Solved that problem y'day by buying a power brad nailer. Compressed air, no
more hammer near the glass!

Hi all, I'm working on my biggest piece yet - a half-round about five feet
wide and 
2.5 feet high.	The closer I get to being finished, the more nervous I get
about the prospect of transporting it to its final destination!      It
will be installed in a bathroom above a tub - rather high up on the wall. 
We had to put a piece of plywood over the tub and stand the ladder on top
of that to get the measurements.  So, hoisting the finished piece into
place will be interesting.  I had thought I'd strap it to the piece of
plywood I have it on while I work on it, but that will really make it heavy
and difficult to get one's hands on the glass itself to slip it into place.
 My client will have a trim carpenter there to do the actual installation,
but I want to make this go as smoothly as possible.  This piece is going to
be beautiful, but has been a bitch to work on.	After 6 years of doing
glass rather successfully, this one has made me feel like a neophyte again!
Have hit more snags than I care to count.  Want the final steps to go well.
Any suggestions? Nancy Saucier BeauSoleil Glass Picayune Mississippi

you might use 3/4" lead instead of zinc, unless the zinc is the border.

when you put the lead into a window or wood strips, if it doesn't fit
exactly it's lots easier to plane down the lead rather than unsolder and cut
the glass to make it smaller.

it's just as strong. don't forget to put a dowel in the bottom piece of
lead/zinc to prevent it from collapsing.

Thanks to you all for your suggestions and comments regarding installing
the large glass I'm working on.  I feel a little more confident about it
now.  Marci, your piece sounds similar to mine - I'm doing hummingbirds
with fuschias.  Would love to see your when you're done.  One more thing -
did I dream it or did someone say something a few days ago about being able
to clean a panel with rubbing alcohol after fluxing and soldering?  There's
no way I can haul this thing to the bathtub to wash it with soap and water
as I usually do.  That would be a great solution!

The use of rubbing alcohol comment was in regards to cleaning partially
cured putty from lead came projects.  It works for that.

With your panel, don't haul it to the bathroom, haul it outside...stand it
up (put it against a board if you're more comfortable...just not the one
you'll use for delivery as it'll get wet), soap one side, hit it with the
hose to rinse, flip and repeat.

Nancy,

You wanted to know if you could clean your large panel with rubbing alcohol 
rather than hauoing it to the bathtub for soap and water.  I had posted that 
I appreciated the tip from someone else about using rubbing alcohol.  I use 
it to clean glass after it is cut and ground but i have never tried it on 
fluxed and soldered pieces.  Maybe you could solder a few pieces of scrap 
glass together and give it a try.  You may want to check for reactions with 
patina as well.  You may have stumbled into a great technique!  If it works, 
report back.  If anyone else has tried it, let us know.

i made one of these using a brush from a floor waxer and a threaded rod, and
use it in my power drill. it works pretty well on lead. don't use it on
foiled panels.

There is also a brush sold through my local glass retailer that is called
Luster Brush.  They demonstrated it for me and it seems to get a dark, shiny
finish on the lead in a fraction of the time regular brushing takes. It
retails for a whopping $45.  I have looked in regular hardware stores for a
natural fiber brush like this but can't find one.  Kimmberly

THANKS! I was wondering the same thing. Kind of funny how we tend to over
think these things!! Outside and a simple garden hose!

Hey Nancy, I'd love to see a copy of yours too! Can you post a photo of
yours on the web?  I just sent my client glass chips to choose her colors,
so it will be a good 8-10 weeks before this one is done!  I 'borrowed' the
basic pattern from one of the Glass Eye designs, stretched it and added
more greenery, birds, changed the colors and a 2" border. 

Thanks again everyone!

With your panel, don't haul it to the bathroom, haul it outside...stand it
up (put it against a board if you're more comfortable...just not the one
you'll use for delivery as it'll get wet), soap one side, hit it with the
hose to rinse, flip and repeat.

I remember someone saying something about an electric shoe polisher to
wax/shine, FINISHED panels.  It would be very interested in hearing what the
options are.  I tried to find an "electric or battery powered portable shoe
polisher" but I couldn't find anything like that.  I used the polisher pad
on my dremmel, but it was worn out before a square foot of window was
polished.  Right now, I get the wax off and shine my panels using a soft
cloth and a toothbrush to get the wax out from around the solder lines.  It
takes forever!  I would just be afraid of bringing something as heavy duty
as a power drill attachment in contact with my project.  It's not the
shining it up that's the problem, it's brushing the wax out of the crevices
that's the issue - the toothbrush method just takes too long.  Something
between a dremel and a regular drill would be nice.  Is there such a thing?
If there's a BETTER way, I'd love to hear it.

Thank You!  Everytime I mention any glass related idea to my husband, he
always asks me if I got the idea from my "email buddies".
You all are great, and I really appreciate the time that you take out of
your busy lives to help me.

My dad, an electrician/engineer for 40 years, let me in on a tip about
rubbing alcohol.  He never, ever uses regular rubbing alcohol to clean
electrical contacts, etc, because it is mixed with a form of oil, which
leaves oily residue behind on the contacts (or your glass).  For
example, 70% alcohol is 30% 'other stuff'.  I've had trouble using
rubbing alcohol to clean glass for foiling, because I tend to let the
alcohol evaporate off to dry, instead of rubbing them down with a cloth
(which removes the oil), and my foil never sticks very well.  Dad
suggests using pure denatured alcohol, which you can get in the grocery
store or hardware store--no oil content.

Hello,

I agree with what your Dad says about the "oil" in rubbing alcohol.  Just 
one point to be aware of in relation to denatured alcohol.

I am unsure of what products you have available in the US but it would be 
wise to try to establish WHAT it is denatured with.

Some of the chemicals used can be quite nasty so at least you will be able 
to determine the absolute minimum safety precautions required.

Hi Sherry,
  Well, there are some other considerations pertaining to things
specific to cleaning electrical contacts.  While I'm not sure there's
any "oil" per se in any mix of alcohol, there can be some other things
that can adversely affect electrical contacts, one of them being water itself.
  The term "denatured" means that the alcohol is not pure, but has some
other additive, typically water.  Methyl alcohol (as with most alcohols)
is hydrotropic, meaning that it attracts water (vapor) from the air. 
Since water and alcohol are miscible (they can readily mix one into the
other), the water vapor dilutes the alcohol.  In the manufacturing
process, it's far tougher to produce "pure" alcohol, since any exposure
to water vapor dilutes the stuff.  If you go to a scientific chemical
supply, and locate some "reagent" grade methyl alcohol, you'll pay a
very healthy price for the stuff, and as soon as you remove the cap..
well, it's not going to be "pure" any longer.
  But there are gradations of blends of alcohols, and there are various
other contaminants, depending on the manufacturer, and the price point. 
There is often a bit of an oil reside that is inside the metal cans that
the alcohol is packaged in, and that residue can in turn wind up
dissolved into the alcohol.  For many electrical contacts and
components, any water at all can react with the surface, and create some
sort of a problem, so your father had some valid concerns about using
the stuff, but again, much depends on what grade of alcohol you're
working with.
  Garden variety "rubbing alcohol" is about 70% isopropanol, and 30%
water.  This stuff is fairly cheap, but was not designed for cleaning of
parts, as much as for household medical applications.  If you want to
move up a notch, visit your local independent hardware store, and buy
some "shellac thinner", which is methyl alcohol (aka methylnol), which
is made from the destructive distillation of wood and wood fibers, as
opposed to ethylnol, which is also known as grain alcohol - stuff you
can drink, providing you don't try it straight!
  Methyl alcohol is a superior cleaner, used in any number of commercial
cleaning applications, it's a good solvent for many things, evaporates
quickly, and leaves no residue.  You may notice some areas of your
fingers that turn a bit white when using methyl alcohol, it's because
the alcohol has dissolved some of the oils in your skin, and dried out
your skin, so take some precautions.  Also, such alcohols burn very
easily, and the flame is often hard to see, as it's a pale blue flame. 
Take proper precautions in handling the stuff, and keep it tightly
capped, both to keep it from evaporating, and to keep it from absorbing
more water from the atmosphere.
  Given my choice of solvents for cleaning glass, I think I'd select
methyl alcohol second, after mineral spirits (good quality paint
thinner), then lacquer thinner third (more potent solvent), and then
possibly acetone or MEK (extremely powerful solvents, and much more
hazardous).  Whatever solvent you do select, be sure to get a MSDS on
the stuff, and read it, and keep it on file in your shop or studio.  All
of these solvents are flammable and combustible, so they're nothing to
leave laying open or unattended in your shop.

Subject: Bungi - Hot Glass Venues?
Date: Wed, 27 Mar 2002 03:22:42 +0000
Message-ID: <1970Jan1.000.0@earthlink.net>
Precedence: bulk

Hi Folks,
  I received a call from a young lady in Texas over the weekend.  She
worked in a hot glass shop in the Dallas area for a number of months,
but that job came to an end.  However, she's really got the "hot glass
bug" now.  She's currently working in a glass gallery, but finds it much
as a kid in a candy store.. she's so close to the finished work, but no
way to further her personal skill and career in hot glass.
  So, she's been looking for some sort of hot glass apprenticeship
program somewhere, that she can get involved with, and continue to
pursue her passion for hot glass.  She's indicated a preference for the
West Coast, or possibly the Pacific NorthWest.  She's been to the
Seattle area several times, but has been thus far unable to find the
sort of program that she's looking for.
  So, I put this inquiry out to those who monitor this list.  Any ideas
as to where she might continue her investigations?  Any contacts that
might be able to offer her any leads?  On the phone she was so
passionate about hot glass, and so frustrated that she can't seem to
find any way to move on in her own pursuit of hot glass, it just seems
reasonable to offer such assistance and information as might be available.
  I'll forward any suggestions to her directly.
  Thanks.. and..
  Peace  -Gerry Phibbs, IGGA

I made the same thing and use it only for the final polish on my leaded
windows, to produce that beautiful black patina on the lead.

I may make another to try on foil windows, but currently don't have any
problems using soft cotton rags and terry cloth to remove all the wax.

I don't let the wax dry on the panel before polishing, but polish as soon as
it's hazed over.  It seems quite easy to get all the wax off this way
without resorting to toothbrushes, et at.  (kemopro)

As of next week I have 13 more weeks to go until I'm retired!!!!!!!!!

So...I've been using spring break to fill out the many forms and read
all the tax law stuff and now have a federal business number, and have
at least half the other forms completed, etc.  (gak!)

So now it is time to consider getting my own domain name (no problem and
cheap and easy) and, more important, getting a CHEAP (free?) but
reliable host, because Comcast neither sells domain names (!?!) nor
hosts them.  This is not a web-based business, but I do want to have a
few examples of work for people to see, and some other information.

I've never had the time to learn much web design, so a host with the
built-in easy to use design stuff would be nice, and maybe later on I'll
have the time to play.  I also want to manage the site mostly, not
having to rely on the host to do all that.

I'd appreciate any advice - what to do and what to avoid!  Thanks - Cec

I use a 3m mask #8212. It states it is designed to protect from solder fumes. 
I get them mail order from a company called American Safety (I think I'm 
remembering the name correctly). It cheaper from those folks that from Delphi 
Glass, who also sell them. That's where I got my first one.

Hoooray for you!

When I first started out I got my domain name thru www.register.com,
$35 a year/$70 2 years, along with this they give you a three page
website included in that price. They have templates, allow a bunch of
pictures, etc. Very easy to work with. The company has also been
around for over 7 years.  Yes, godaddy.com is $9 or something, but I'm
more comfortable with stability and didn't want to have to change
registration/host companies every couple of years.
www.networksolutions.com sells domain names and also has templates and
for webpages. Not sure if the webpage stuff is included for free - but
a quick check of their website would tell you. 

My site: www.mmartindesigns.com is hosted thru Hostway.com - they've
also been around for 7-8 years, it runs about $13 a month if I pay for
a full year. They also had a cheaper plan and have templates, etc. Go
to Google.com and do a search for free websites and you'll see many
many places to check out. Just be sure not to go with the cheapest -
not always the best! "You get what you pay for!"

Also IGGA.org has websites thru them - You've seen some of those from
others on the bungi list!  But it is nice to have your own domain -
now that you'll be retired, you can get into building your own webpage
- - have a glass section, a family section, etc.! Lots of fun! 

Good luck!

For goodness sakes, people - use some sense.  When you get a hysterical
message about a virus you can bet it is s hoax.  But if you want to be
certain, check the many sites that list the hoaxes before you do a
Chicken Licken and tell all your acquaintences that the sky is falling.

Get into your browser, and click on the search button.  Enter "virus
hoax".  Any of the search engines will immediately bring up at least 10
reliable sites that can tell you if this is a real threat or just
somebody's malicious scare tactic.  These hoax letters are actually
chain letters and passing them on is illegal! - Cecily

This is what Stiller Research says about this hysterical message:

"This is yet another silly virus warning hoax in the long line of virus
hoaxes started by the The "Good Times" virus hoax. There are many hoaxes
like this that warn you to avoid some email and then ask you to pass on
the warning. Whenever you see something in this pattern you can assume
this is a hoax. Please, please, NEVER forward any email that makes
requests (as this one does) to send the email to everyone; such an email
will never stop circulating."

As far as drawing your own break lines, my suggestion is to look at some
good patterns books for ideas. One of my favorites is "Allen Kenoyer Glass"
- they have three pattern books out and their way of breaking up the
backgrounds are excellent. Some good new ideas for you.

Also, another great book is Jennie French's "How to Design for Stained
Glass." I think it might be available from Dover Books in New York. She
gives quite a lot of good info on design.

I sympathize for your learning how to unsolder glass, it isn't fun, but
necessary to know. if you do glass for any length of time.

As far as your choice of bottom glass, anything that isn't so busy as the
top should be fine. Waterglass would be a nice choice.

I don't use any.  Just good ventilation.

However, if you are worried, you need to protect yourself from fumes.
This is a more "heavy duty" product than a disposable mask.  It needs to
fit well, so that if you block the inlet valve, you cannot breathe.  It
needs to filter both particles (easy) and fumes.
        My respirator contains two filters - an external particle
filter, and an internal fume filter.  Consult your vendor for more
information on particle sizes and filters for the particular fumes.

Hi Cec,

having been through this process recently, I have done a fair bit of
research into this issue. Along the way I have heard a lot of good
comments about http://www.affordablehost.com. They tend to win in the
important areas of service, up-time and very helpful staff. Also the
price is very decent as well. I think you even get a free domain name
registration with a few of their plans. They are recommended constantly
in the alt.html and alt.www.webmaster newsgroups, which are full of
people who tend to know about these things.

I don't use them at the moment, I use http://www.httpme.com. But these
are strictly for multiple domain hosting. They also recommend
affordablehost.com for single domain.

Happy retirement!
Tony

Just had a brainstorm!  I had already made my trip to WalMart today (or
else I would have bought one of these and could report the outcome) and
came home to finish waxing and polishing the piece I'm working on.  I
usually just use a soft rag to buff the wax off and a Q-tip for tight
places.  While working on this, I was thinking of Donna's and some of the
other's comments on this task.  I recently bought my husband and myself
each one of those new battery operated toothbrushes.  I think that might
work just fine!  I started to slip in the house and borrow my husband's to
try it out, but figured the lead/flux/patina/wax combo might do him in and
didn't want to end up in the slammer!!  Anyway, Crest makes one that sells
for about $5, runs on two AA batteries and the new ones are made so that
the head can be replaced when need be.  Next trip to the store I'll pick
one up and will let you know how it works.  Would still be a little tedious
on large jobs as the brush doesn't cover a very large area at a time, but
might save on a little elbow grease.

I remember someone saying something about an electric shoe polisher to
wax/shine, FINISHED panels.  It would be very interested in hearing what the
options are.  I tried to find an "electric or battery powered portable shoe
polisher" but I couldn't find anything like that.  I used the polisher pad
on my dremmel, but it was worn out before a square foot of window was
polished.  Right now, I get the wax off and shine my panels using a soft
cloth and a toothbrush to get the wax out from around the solder lines.  It
takes forever!  I would just be afraid of bringing something as heavy duty
as a power drill attachment in contact with my project.  It's not the
shining it up that's the problem, it's brushing the wax out of the crevices
that's the issue - the toothbrush method just takes too long.  Something
between a dremel and a regular drill would be nice.  Is there such a thing?
If there's a BETTER way, I'd love to hear it.

Thank You!  Everytime I mention any glass related idea to my husband, he
always asks me if I got the idea from my "email buddies".
You all are great, and I really appreciate the time that you take out of
your busy lives to help me.

Nancy, have you tried Turtle Wax Express Shine? Someone posted this tip some
time ago and I have converted to it totally for large panels. It has cut my
finishing time down to about 20 minutes for a large panel. Spray it on, wipe
it off, buff. It goes on clear and is MUCH easier than the glass polish. No
need for electric buffers. It doesn't collect in the grooves of textured
glass. Try it. ;-)

I need patterns for panda bears and Disney characters.
 Does anyone have shared patterns of either, that they
can and are willing to send to me?  Also, does anyone
know the title of a pattern book for Disney
characters?

Thanks in advance

Bob

Hi Melissa - -

Here's a message I received earlier this week - I'm sure Lori won't mind my
sharing - - there are some really nice eagle/flag designs on the gallery:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hi again,

On my web site I have an art gallery with many pieces honoring September 11.
Just look for the American section,  some are quite spectacular.

Thank you,

Is it necessary to grind the edges of bevels before
