Description:Â
This is an entry level class introducing the copper foil method of stained glass. Students will choose from  design kits. While the kits will have precut and ground pieces, students will practice cutting and breaking pieces on clear glass. Students will also be able to practice using a grinder. They will then foil, solder and finish their projects. Decorative soldering and wire work may also be taught if time allows. All materials are included.Â
Note: Stained glass solder is comprised of 60% tin and 40% lead. Lead can be harmful if ingested, so proper hand washing is recommended before eating and drinking. Safety glasses and gloves may be worn as well.
