I've done a couple stencils with a soldering iron so far, with the sheet on wood, but I need to sand it each time to do that or the texture of it messes me up, plus the stencil sheets tend to stick to it. Looked up what to use and glass, to my surprise, was number one choice as I would think they'll break from heat like this. Do you know the highest temperature it can withstand? And does your stencil sheet stick to glass when finished? I don't think tempered glass can withstand heat, cause one of my brothers, years ago, was trying to solder my rear defrost where the wire was broken and busted my window out lol.
I just used a sheet of glass from a picture frame. And I use a stencil burner kit. It was made for stencil burning, not intended for woodburning and has a really fine curved tip. So maybe the temperatures are different but the stencil burning kit does not break glass and it does not stick to the glass at all and it allows you to draw curve lines a lot smoother, and cleaner it doesn’t get hooked on the material underneath I highly recommend using glass and a Stencil burner. I have links in the description for the stencil burner I used.
@@reddirtdesigns7021 Thanks, friend, I googled temperatures for both stencil burners and soldering irons and you can set them both pretty low, and I think 350° is recommended (I need to look again) for glass bottoms. I bought the soldering iron and had no idea there were stencil burners lol, or I'd have gotten that instead. I don't like that you can't put your fingers close to the tip on it cause about two inch of it is metal which is hot, but one of the tips is a very fine, sharp tip which I use. If needed, I will get a stencil burner so I can do small details easier. Picture frame glass is not a problem, I have access to them, and I'm glad they don't stick. Thanks much for the feed back!
Hi again. Just a thought I would provide links to everything you buy or use so we can buy the same thing. You can link an your account to them. When you provide live links it goes right to that page.
Hope this link works for you. And I have been trying to add links to my newest videos.The stencil film I have now is really old and I’m not sure what brands they are, but most stencil blanks works the same.
hello, thanks for sharing this, it's super excellent, now I have a question, could the sheet be thermoformed so that it fits certain pieces or places, thanks and success😃😃😃
Honestly the thinner stencils are easier to cut, but they aren’t as durable. If you can afford it maybe get a couple different thicknesses off Amazon and see what works best for your projects I have several different thicknesses depends on what I’m using them for. But brand wise it doesn’t really matter.
Glass!! Never thought of that. That helps a lot. Thx!
Thanks for watching
I'll be making all kinds now
Awesome good luck to you and thanks for watching!
That’s a great help and would love to see a cloud one too.
I’ll be making that one in the next few weeks! Thanks for watching

Great job.
Thank you! And thanks for watching
Thats awesome!
Thanks man
Cool man like flames 2
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Great idea
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Very useful video, thanks! Does using the stencil burner create toxic fumes?
Not that I know of but I’m not positive on that great question. 🤔probably wouldn’t hurt to use respirator
Great video. Can you please provide a link for your metal sign blanks?
I’m having trouble finding the exact one I got, but I believe this one will work.

Thank you! And I’m sure if you heat up sheet it would form but I honestly i’ve never tried. And thank you so much for watching!
That is pretty cool. I will definitely get one. Thanks
Yeah I love mine they are fun! And thank you for watching!
Hey what plastic did you use for that project or would you prefer another one?

THAT WAS GREAT,, I MEAN REALLY GREAT,, THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH
Thank you! I enjoy making these videos and I appreciate you watching. Have a great day.
Thanks for the info. Great work!
You bet thanks for watching!
@@reddirtdesigns7021 I'm also an airbrush enthusiast and I need all the advice that I can get. So THANK YOU☺️
@@rbadilloart8496 Awesome glad I could help! I'll be doing lots more airbrushing tutorials in the near future.
