Loved it. Can not imagine how much time and patience snd talent that takes. ❤❤❤❤❤😊
with jobs like this i always find myself being grateful on 2 accounts, 1, to the grinder, 2, that lead is so soft, great vid,
This looks like a really tricky one. Well done for having the patience to get there in the end. We all have panels like this so it’s good to see how you go about working out the best way to approach it.
Thank you for the insight into this fiddly process <3
🤩😎😍. Such a delight watching your videos, Sophie. 🙏🏽 for always sharing. I trust you’re keeping well. Hope to see you again soon. D.
Me gusta mucho verte trabajar, muchas gracias !!
Sophie, its a pleasure to watch you work. Your live videos are so authentic, in real time, and truly a testament to the skill of a stained glass artist. I do leaded glass myself, but in no way am I as experienced as yourself. I see the lead cutters you are using (not the oyster knife), they look brilliant, can I ask what they are called and where you get them? I would love to see whether they help me to cut lead more accurately.
Legend !
Can I ask, how come Mark didn’t lead up his piece himself? My last commission gave me the same grief (hot air balloons) and I had no one else to blame but myself for the design, square pegs and round holes and oh oh the hokey kokey 🤣🤣🤣
Hello! Sorry I am late. Thanks for the "real" video of how a panel is constructed. A couple comments. I cringe every time you use the hammer to fit the piece. I do copper foil, so that is not a technique I have seen. I did not know you used a grinder until the previous video. What type of grinder do you use? I started stained glass in the 1970s. At that time the grinders we have today did not exist. I still use a bench grinder with a wheel to grind my glass. It does not give the nice vertical edge that today's grinders give, but it is really hard for me to adapt to the "new" technology. It may be the reason some of my glass cracks after hanging for several weeks. I was wondering. Do you take breaks while you work? For example, do you work and hour or two and rest for 5-10 minutes? Or, can you work for 3+ hours straight without a break. As I get older (74 now), I find I need to take a break quite often.
Pushing lead like this will give you sore fingers ouch, 😟☹️
