Gaps in pieces
by Pam
Answer You probably won't like my answer, but here it is anyway...Re-cut the pieces so they fit! You'll never learn to cut precisely if you think you can fill the gaps with something. Take pride in your work and practice cutting until you can cut precisely. Check your pattern pieces. Have they been cut out precisely? Do they fit in between the cut lines on your cartoon, just touching the inside edges of the cut lines? Each step in stained glass work builds on the previous step. In other words, if your pattern pieces are wrong, your glass will be cut wrong, the assembled piece won't go together right and you end up with a poorly made and botched together project.

You can't imagine how much I wish I had found your incredible website before I spent many hundreds of dollars on lessons, dvd's, tutorials, etc. I can tell that everything I need to know can be found here. All I can say is "Thank You!" Larry
I can't thank you enough for this site. The new search feature is amazing and it makes it so easy to find exactly what I am looking for. Thank you again! Laurie
Your site is fantastic! I took a six week class four years ago and recently started again (after forgetting almost everything I learned!). I have to say that your site is excellent and I can't wait to practice the techniques you've shown. Scarlet
I'm a subscriber to your "Stained Glass Gems" and I just wanted to say THANK YOU for your wonderful site! This is by far the best glass site I've run across. I recently purchased your publication on Patina FAQ and it's very helpful for me... I like to have hard copies of info so I added it to my library. Suzanna |
