I have watched this three times! You see I am trying my hand at soft solder jewelry and I’m trying to learn the correct way to work with solder. It finally dawned on me to look at stained glass soldering tutorials along with the soft solder jewelry tutorials. You have given so much good advice and techniques! I was not at all successfully doing anything until I purchased this hakko soldering iron! Now that I have it things are flowing like smooth butter, so now I needed to learn techniques. I now feel like I will be successful. You are a very good teacher and I hope you will continue adding more soldering related content to your channel. Thank you for sharing this much needed info!
I plan on doing a jewelry video soon. I hope you can pick up a few soldering ideas there. Thank you for all your kind words!. In a world where people can be cruel with there comments your words are refreshing! 😍
@@juliefeigum8766 that will be great! I was trying to make balls and your tutorial is the only one that breaks it down. I was quite intrigued with what you were doing out of frame. I was trying to do what I thought you were doing- wiping iron off on the wet sponge then dipping it in flux? It did really clean off iron - almost to good. I re-tin more than I think should. Areas of interest to me at this time are how to attach a bail seamlessly, stamp hot solder with red rubber stamps to imprint a design, layering up solder and creating texture with the solder, and how to encase a gemstone in copper tape and attaching it to frame of a larger pendant. Anything you decide to teach I am quite confident you will teach expertly and I’m looking forward to whatever you determine to teach. Thanks!
I also like how she uses everyday items such as qtips, pledge and i think window cleaner. I really hope she does jewelry vids. I begun buying some of the items like a soldering gun and a blue heat mat for working on , i never so much as held a soldrting gun kit with adjustable heat, yet but i hope to learn to make jewelry and not stained glass. I'm also legally blind so this should be an interesting challenge 😊
What an excellent video, the only sad thing is it appears to be the only vid you made so far on soldering. I really hope you plan to do more. You are an excellent teacher. 😊
That is awesome 😀 I hope it will give you that out of that box thinking that helps you stay in front of any (trends that are getting old ) push ahead ❣️
Thank you so much for watching I did it for a Facebook group, I didn't know about people commenting on it so I'm just now getting around to answering everyone. 😊
I have a huge studio and the flux I use doesn't smoke, and my iron is regulated so as to not burn off old oxidation from other materials. I hope I answered your questions. ☺️
Suggestion, if you are making creative ideas and videos, put the art closer to the camera or mounting above , front angle. And your thumbnail be of a finished piece. So ppl will want to click on your video's to learn how to.... make the item in thumbnail. I'm creative like you, but i also have photography in my background as well... along with theater, cosmetology, costumes and floral of all kinds. But i can do most anything i put my mind to. Just thought id help ... have a great day
You can use anything, I just have had great success with this. I also wash some items with blue dawn dish soap. Invisalign glass I buy it at farm and fleet or Menards or Amazon. Thanks for asking
Hi Julie just joined yr channel ive been doing leadlight & stained glass art for 2 years, thats the first time anyone has explain the flux brush, now i know why some of my joins have come apart, Thankyou 😊and please make yr wire work dvd, did that work have you made it yet 🤣🤣 Thankyou for sharing yr knowledge
I've been a teacher for many years and had a lot of students take refresher SG class, and the first thing that hit the trash can was the FLUX BRUSH! The one thing I noticed that when the Cooper foil looks more like dirty gold that solder doesn't want to adhere to it. Fix that by putting your foil in a air tight Ziploc, or going swimming in a pool of flux to try to get your foil to take the solder. Thank you for watching ❣️
Hi Julie, Thank you so very much for doing this tutorial!! Some questions...I've been told to never use a sponge with the Hakko because it doesn't need it. Do you find that's not true?? Also was told not to use steel wool because it could leave fibers behind that could rust. What are your thoughts?? Thanks again for the great video!!
Im a creature of habit and I still use my sponge and I have had the same iron for 6 years, never had a problem, but I also don't run my iron on MEGA HIGH! I run mine at 310° to 360° Ive used 0000 steel wool since 1993, it will give you the best black line ever, or any color patina for that fact. The trick to the steel wool is to make sure your pice is dry then rub the lines brush off any particles left over ( you could wash off if you wish ) Then patina. I hope I answered your questions 😀
I use 60/40 Eagle brand solder. I buy my pre-tined copper wire From (Warner Glass) or (Amazon) 16 gauge and 14 gauge I use these two the most offen. I hope I answered your question.

Unlike most videos, I actually learned something. Thank you.
That is so kind of you, thank you so much!
So excited to try these ideas! You explained so well that I think I might be successful. Thanks for sharing.
I'm sure glad I could share with ya ❤️

Thank you !
Thank you for watching
Que potencia?
Yes wire work!!!
Just string the handle of the cup and then you can use it for hot drinks.
Do you wear a mask to protect from breathing fumes?
Thanks for an AMAZING tutorial!!

What brand soldering iron do you use? Also, thank you! This was so helpful❤
Hako FX 601
So you use that glass cleaner instead of flux remover? What is the name of it again & where do you get it?
Rewatch the video to catch what you didn't understand..... take notes
You can use anything, I just have had great success with this. I also wash some items with blue dawn dish soap. Invisalign glass

More, More!!!
I shall try to get something on here soon. ❣️ TY

Please tell me best solding wire 60*40
How do you make the bigger dots. I have your dvd. I’m trying to do the dots on the edge of the glass😊
Maybe make 2 applications?
Please tell me wire mm size
Thank you
((will you please put a paper down first to demo on a clean surface?)) ❤
Please tell me wire MM
I use 60/40 Eagle brand solder.
I buy my pre-tined copper wire
From (Warner Glass) or (Amazon) 16 gauge and 14 gauge I use these two the most offen. I hope I answered your question.
Solder isn't paint, therefore it technically doesn't dry. It cools then hardens as from its molten state.
Solder cools it doesn't dry! Never double dip in your flux. You are making it weaker. Clean off your steel wool after using it. Leaves rust spots ugh
