Hi Peter, I don't know how you can attach a proto on this type of a reply, I will give you an email address I use to get photos on for my RUclips video projects. Please feel free to send your photo's to tworollingstones1962@yahoo.com I will be more than happy to look them over and give you a reply. Have a great day!! Regards, Bill Stone

Hi Judith, Thanks for your king words, it's been fun sharing these projects with others. When you have time check out the video, WE HAVE A WINNER!! and see which candy dish won the voting. Years ago, I worked with someone named Tom McFadden who lived in Pasadena, CA. I know there are lots of McFadden's around the world, but I told my wife wouldn't it be funny if you were related somehow. Again, thanks for your comment and I hope you will check out some of my other videos. Have a great day!! Regards, Bill Stone

Hi Bill, Thanks for your question on the paper clip clamps. They are made using a standard 1 1/4" paper clip. In the center there is a lip that is bent over between where the metal finger livers are hooked to the paper clip. I just take a pair of flat noise pliers and bend it to a 90-degree angle and then I take a pair of long noise pliers and bend it on over to make small fingers on both sides of the paper clip. When you open the paper clip you can put these small fingers between the glass and the lead came to bring them together. I hope that makes sense to you!! If not send me another reply and I will try to give you a better answer. I have had several subscribers' ask about these clips, maybe I should do a short video on how to make them!! Have a great day!! Regards, Bill Stone

Hi Chuck, Thanks for your kind words, so glad you enjoyed the video. Glad you are on my channel and please feel free to ask me anything about these video projects. Have a great day!! Regards, Bill Stone

Hi Jeff, Yes, you can make this spinner with copper foil. There are several videos on RUclips with people making spinners with copper foil. I like using lead came only because I like the way it looks, and I find it to be easier to work with than copper foil. If I was to make one with copper foil, I would still go around the outer edges with my U came to finish off the project. That way I could still use my cotter pin hanger idea. If you do make one with the copper foil, putting the hanger onto it may be the weak link to your project. Let me know what you come up with and welcome to my channel. Please feel free to ask me anything about any of these video projects. If you have some time, check out my very first video, Leaded Glass Solar Lantern for Beginners, it talks all about everything you need to do leaded glass projects. Again, thanks for your comment and have a great day!! Regards, Bill Stone

@@billstonesstainedglasscrea3310 Thanks for the info and the quick response. I'll keep on watching and thanks for the great videos.

Hi Jeff, If you like copper foil, there are 3 other videos projects on my channel. They are all solar lanterns and are made with copper foil and lead came. Check them out when you have time. Two of them have flowers in them and the other one has sea glass in it. Have a great day!! Regards, Bill Stone

Hi, Thanks for your comment!! This was a fun project to share with others. My wife loves pink also and that was the one she liked best also.

Hi Kelly, Thanks for tour comment, so glad you enjoyed the video project. This was a fun one to share with others. Please feel free to ask me anything about any of the video projects and I will get you an answer ASAP!! Have a great day!! Regards, Bill Stone

Hi Lauren, Thanks to your mom for saving them!!! I was so surprised to see them again. I hope everything is going great for you at school. Love Pop-Pop

Hi Tom, Thanks for your comment, yes you can make this with copper foil. I would run some re-strip down the long part of the cross to make it stronger and keep it from being prone to bending. The bevels are a little tricky to wrap in copper foil, take your time to get the copper foil centered on the edge. I would also wrap the outside edges with lead U Came for additional strength. I hope that helps you out. Have a great day!! Regards, Bill Stone

Hi Peter, Thanks for your comment, no you didn't miss anything regarding using glazing putty in these small leaded glass projects. I don't use glazing putty in projects smaller than 1 1/2' square projects or any type of window panel that is going on the outside and needs to be waterproofed. If you want to glaze them it makes them stronger and if there are any pieces of glass that's a little small and are rattling back and forth in the lead channel the glazing putty will stop that. Best of luck on your project, take your time and I'm sure it will come out great!! Have a great day!! Regards, Bill Stone

Hi Ryan, Thanks for your comment, nice to hear from you again. How's your solar lantern project going?? I was so surprised to see these window panels after all those years. Have a great day!! Regards, Bill Stone

Hi Bill, haven’t actually started on the lantern yet. I’m working on other projects at the moment. Thank you.

Hi Ryan, When you do start your lantern let me know how it's turning out and if you have any questions just send me a comment and I will get back to you. Have a good one!! Regards, Bill Stone

Hi Connie, Thanks for your comment. I get these drills from Amazon, here's the info on them. Jingling Diamond Grinding Bits, 3MM Spherical Head with 1/8" shank for Dremel. Box of 30 for $11.99 Hopefully that will help you find these bits. As I said in the video, some of these last for a long time and others have a short life. I think it's because some of them don't have enough diamond dust on them. I don't know anything about the Walmart bits. Sorry I can't give you a better answer on that question. Have a great day. Regards, Bill Stone

I will check it out and compare. Think they just might be If they do the job then the price is right. Thank you again @billstonesstainedglasscrea3310

Hi Lorna, Thanks so much for your comment, I was so surprised when my daughter had us over to dinner and surprised me with them. Thanks again for your comment!! Regards, Bill Stone

Hi Julie, So nice to hear from you again. She invited us over to dinner and surprised me with the windows. I was sure they were gone forever; we sold that home when we retired 22 years ago and couldn't believe they still had them in the house after all those years. Thanks for your comment and great to hear from you!! Regards, Bill Stone

Hi Monica, Thanks for your comment, so nice to hear from you. Glad you enjoyed the short video, hopefully you will check out some of my other videos when you have time. Regards, Bill Stone

Hi Karen, So nice to hear from you again, hope all's great with you!! My daughter invited us over for dinner and surprised me with the windows. I was sure they were long gone!! The home we had had these windows in we sold 22 years ago, and I couldn't believe the still had them in the windows. Have a great day!! Regards, Bill Stone

Hi Rayn, Thanks so much for your comment, I took a look at the video and around the 10:04 mark I address the problem of the glass and lead came making the project grow a little. This is one of my videos I call cut and stack, and I don't really care if it grows a little. The drawing at the start of the video shows you the minimum size of the panel, if it grows a little you don't care, you just don't want it to come out smaller because the solar light won't fit. You are right in asking about the amount it grows because of the cutter and the lead came. The U came adds about 1/16" to the panel on both sides and the H Came adds about1/32" each time you put it between the glass. This was my very first You Tube video and see where I left some things too chance, hopefully my newer ones have improved!! So, with that in mind if you wanted to make it exact all your glass would be cut using a ruler that is about 1/16" small than the finished cut size. Example a 1" piece of glass would use a 15/16" ruler plus the 1/16" the cutter would add to it to come out with a piece exactly 1" wide. I hope that makes sense to you!! Where you have to be really carful when cutting your glass is when it has to fit into something that is already made, like a window panel that needs to fit into a give space. All the projects in my channel don't have to fit into anything so if they grow a little it's fine. Hope that info was helpful and good luck on your projects. Please feel free to as me anything about these projects!! Have a great day. Regards, Bill Stone PS: They do make what they call pattern shears for both lead came and copper foil projects. These shears cut out a small strip from your pattern paper to allow for the lead came or copper foil.

⁠Thank you Bill for the fast response, that answered my question perfectly, I knew that ruler wasn’t 1 inch wide, I focused on that hard. Beautiful work sir!!

Hi Ryan, Your more than welcome, please feel free to ask me anything about these projects. When you have time check out my newest video, it's about some window panels I made almost 50 years ago!! Enjoy your day. Regards, Bill Stone

Hi, Thanks for your comment. Yes, I do stretch the lead came for all these projects, it makes it stronger and keeps it straight and easer to cut. My very first video Leaded Glass Solar Lantern for Beginners!!! I go over how to stretch the came using a lead came vice and all the tools needed to do leaded glass projects. So glad you found my channel, it's been fun sharing these projects with others. Please feel free to ask me anything about my video projects. Have a great day!! Regards, Bill Stone

Hi, Thanks for your comment. The brass tubing is 1/8" OD and 3/32" ID. The music wire is 3/32". The set collars are 3/32" to fit on the wire. Thats the same wire and brass tubing used on all the spinners that are made this way. These supplies are from a hobby store that sells R/C Cars, R/C planes and R/C boats. You can also find them on Amazon and E-Bay. Again, thanks for your comment and please feel free to ask me anything about these projects. Have a great day!! Regards, Bill Stone

Hi Craig, I'm so sorry, but I don't have a pattern for any of these jigs used in my video projects. The one for this project is two 30-degree tringles put end to end forming the jig to hold the panels on a 30-degree angle when you solder them together. If you don't want to make this jig you can use your 30/60-degree tringle and block up the outer edges of your panels, making them come together to make the V grove in the center, to solder them together. I hope that makes sense to you. Thanks for your comment and please feel free to ask me anything about these projects. Let me know how you make out with your project. Have a great day!! Regards, Bill Stone

@@billstonesstainedglasscrea3310 Thanks Bill. I'll figure it out... that's part of the fun!

Hi Craig, Your wright, it's fun figuring out how to make jigs to make putting these projects together. Most of the time I will make a project, then put it together. When I'm doing that, I think how could I make something that would make it easier to put together next time. Before you know it you have a whole draw full of different jigs for different projects. Hopefully you got it worked out. Regards, Bill Stone

Hi Evelyne, Thanks so much for your comment, Lacquer Thinner is used to thin Lacquer base paint. It is also used to clean parts and works great to get the edges of your class clean after grinding them to fit in your projects. I use it to clean the edges of my glass when doing copper foil projects, it helps the foil stick to the glass. It dries super-fast and is non oily. Again, thanks for your comment, please feel free to ask me anything about these video projects. Have a great day!! You can get Lacquer Thinner at Hardware Stores, Paint Stores and several other supply houses. Regards, Bill Stone

Hi again, I will tell her!! Shes off to school right now. Regards, Bill Stone

@@billstonesstainedglasscrea3310 I hope mine is half as nice.

Hi Lila, Just take your time, make a good form to make it in. If you don't have any small wood for the form, pick up some wooden paint stirrers or an old fashion wooden yard stick and cut it down to the size you need. You can also pick up some clear window glass to practice cutting on, before you cut your good glass for the project. I'm sure you will get it worked out. Also, take some small pieces of you lead came and practice soldering before you solder your project. Let me know how you're coming along. If you have trouble send me a comment and I will see if I can help you out. Best of luck!! Have a great day!! Regards, Bill Stone

Hi Lila, Thanks for your comment, this is a great project to get started with. I took a look at the video and found at the 30-minute mark we talk about the H Came. Here is the size of the U Came and H Came used on this project. U Came RU-70 face width 5/32" and channel width 3/16" H Came HR-9 face width 5/32" and channel width 3/16" Both of these Cames are made by Cascade Metals. Check out their web page and get a chart on all the different sizes of lead came. Any Came that is close to these sizes will work for you. I don't know where you're getting your supplies, either online or at a glass supply store, they should be able to help you out. If you're buying them online you can check out Amazon, Delphi Glass, E-Bay and Sun and Moon glass supplies for a starter. Another Came that works great is HR-8 face width 5/32" and channel width 5/32". Before you start your project, check out my video, Leaded Glass Solar Lantern for Beginners. It's my first video and shows you all the tools and how to use them. Best of luck on your project and please feel free to ask me anything about any of these projects. Let me know how you do!! Have a great day!! Regards, Bill Stone

Hi Patricia, Welcome to my channel and thanks for your kind words!! When you have a chance check out my video, WE HAVE A WINNER!! and see which candy dish won the voting. Again, thanks for your comment and have a great day!! Regards, Bill Stone

Hi Leas, Nice to hear from you again, the black goopy grout you see people using is to glaze the windows. It's called glazing putty. The Patina is a different product and is used to turn the lead black. You can use all types of things to put it on your projects. Cotton Balls work just fine. I use a tinning brush, like the one you use to put flux on the lead joints before you solder them. Always use gloves when putting on Patina. I have never been to concerned about breathing it. You're not right close to it when you're putting it on your project. If you're worried about you can set up a small fan or wear a mask when you are using it. I hope that helps you out. Thanks for your comment!! Regards, Bill Stone

Hi again, The video on the hangers is about 17 minutes long and the thumbnail has a picture of a solar lantern with pink flowers on it. I hope you can find it. It has some different ways to use my hanger system. Let me know if you can't find it and I will see if I can help you out. Have a great day!! Regards, Bill Stone

@@billstonesstainedglasscrea3310 Can you send me a link to the videos on hanger systems that you made.

Hi Lisa, I don't have a link other than through my RUclips channel. This video was made about 2 1/2 years ago on May 17, 2022, and called Leaded Glass Hangers!! If you go all the way back to my first video, you will find it. It's the 7th video I made. You must be on the west coast to be getting back to me that fast!! I hope you can find it. Regards, Bill Stone

Hi Lisa, Sorry your having trouble finding the video you're looking for. I just logged in to my channel at Bill Stone's Stained Glass Creations and noticed it goes to my channel home page, but it doesn't show all 64 videos on the opening page. If you take a look just under my photo you will see a line that says Home, Videos, Shorts and more. If you click on the Videos, you will get all 64 videos up in one place, go all the way down to the bottom of the page and you will see the video you're looking for. It's the pink one. Let me know if that helps you out. Enjoy your day!! Regards, Bill Stone

Hi Tammy, I talk about the items you will need to make this project in the video. I like your idea of a list of needed items and will start to add one in my upcoming videos. The music wire is 3/32"x36" and the brass tubing is 1/8"x36", both by K&S Precision Metals and the 3/32" collars are by DU-BRO. You can find these items on Amazon or at a hobby store that sells R/C Cars, Boats and Planes. Again, thanks for your tip on an item list, great idea!! Have a great day and thanks for your comment.
