Glass Pendant With Photo?
I am attempting to make a glass pendant with a picture or word behind the glass, I am using glass that is smooth on the edges and a lead that is 60/40, however it does not seem to be adhereing to the glass... not even the joint. I have used flux (twice now) but I am still having problems...also may I ask what you would suggest for the back of the glass to adhere the photo or words? Answer Before I answer your question, I need to know if you are sandwiching the picture between two pieces of glass (you should be), and what method of construction you're using...foil or lead came. If you're using lead came, what size are you using? If you're using copper foil, what width foil and what color backing (copper, black back, silver back) are you using? What brand of flux are you using? You can either reply to me at Contact Me or you can submit your question again with the added information. If you reply to Contact Me, I'll put the information you give me on here, with your original question. |

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 |
