What Do You Use To Make Hangers For Stained Glass?
What type of metal do you make a hanger out of?
Answer
I assume you are talking about the loops you solder on your finished suncatcher or hanging panel. I use 14, 16 or 18 gauge copper or brass wire to make the loops. I then use chain for larger pieces and Tigertail (a very fine braided wire use in jewelery making) for smaller pieces, and attach it to the loops for hanging the piece.
There is a tutorial about making hangers/loops at How To Make and Attach Copper Wire Rings
