Thank you. I'm trying to make the transition from copper foil to lead came. This is the best video I've found for this purpose. It took me 2 attempts, and the 2nd attempt was just like the video!!! Feeling super accomplished!!!
Perfect. My Dad made 2 windows 20 years ago for our house which I've now moved twice. My problem is my new house needs 4 windows and we lost Dad 2 years ago so now I'm going to make them using the skills I learned from him with a little help from this video. Thanks!
Great video. I would be grateful if you could kindly share a video of how to attach a barrel tube hinge and lock to and between two glass panels. Thank You 🙏🏻
Thank u so much! I wanted to do this for so long but I'm afraid cutting my finger in the small sawing machine. It is a lot of work! glass is expensive though, I wonder if may I ask u: that sample piece u made, what's the avge price for that size of glass? your answer may ignite me to do it or not! Lol
Thank you for taking the time to make this informative video. It would have been even more helpful if the camera person could have zoomed in a little on the work. Not very clear.
Straight lines are so much easier, I chose a piece with a lot of curves for my 2 project, just need to lead and solder it now, I might try one window with the beveled pieces, they look pretty, not too expensive.
Someone tell the camera operator to do close ups. The instructor and camera operator are not working together. Close ups and slow your pace down, work together.Lots of information, unfortunately missing a lot of close ups of whats being demonstrated.
Auf jeden Fall sind beide Seiten zu löten. Was man im Video nicht sieht ist, dass die Bleie bis zum Steg geschoben werden müssen. Enden die Bleie an den Backen, läuft man Gefahr, dass die Verbindungen brechen. Vor allem wenn die Felder größer sind und Windlast aufnehmen müssen.
Nice video very informative. I just have a quick question in regards to working with lead. Is there any risk of getting lead poisoning? For example using that saw to cut the lead to size, I noticed you're not wearing a respirator and there is no vacuum on the saw. Are you not concerned about lead particulates in the air? Also handling the lead without any gloves is a little concerning to me. What if you have young children or the grandkids are over wouldnt that be especially dangerous for them? If anybody has any information about health risks and this Hobby please comment. I still want to do it though. Lol
Is liquid flux contamination a thing for home use , I guess your flux gets used up pretty quickly in a factory environment , I'm doing a bit each week so should I pour a little into small container such as a soda bottle lid then toss it at the end of my session or is that just wasting perfectly good materials for the sake of being pedantic
That is the perfect way to do it! Just pour out a bit at a time so none is wasted. As a college student with not much spare cash, it is, in my opinion, the best way to get the most out of a bottle of flux.
Ok I’m looking to this as maybe a new hobby . I have been a window repair man at the Iowa state fairgrounds for 20 years I’ve probably cut and replaced a square acre of glass in my time of working maintenance. But isn’t cutting lead with a saw making lead dust and isn’t lead dust like deadly to breath eat touch or get on your skin ? Cutting with a knife I can see being safe but cutting with a saw a huge no no ! Not trying to be safety sally and I’m sure I’ve breathed stuff from the fairgrounds that’s 150 years old from grinding cutting scraping but no way I can not say something about lead dust from a saw ! I know I’ve cut leaded glass and crystal to make matching stuff and it came with skulls 💀 and cross bones 🦴 on it !
This video is hard to follow and doesn’t show what he’s doing in a way that’s actually visible on camera, it feels like an infomercial coupled with how fast he is talking
sorry but this is not a professional video. Putty should never be used for grouting a leaded panel. It is too soft and allows movement. A proper leaded light cement is essential
Ich bin erstaunt, zu hören, dass die Verwendung von Kitt unprofessionell sein soll. In Deutschland und Frankreich, wo es gewaltig große Kathedralen mit Farbverglasungen gibt, werden die Felder mit Leinölkitt verstrichen. In meiner Firma verkitte ich wie die Altforderen mit Leinölkitt. Der Kitt härtet gut aus und macht die Verbindungen zwischen Blei und Glas wasserdicht. ...wenn Du sonst noch etwas wissen möchtest zu diesem Thema, sehr gerne! Ich liebe dieses Handwerk
Seems like you missed a few steps.,like soldering the other side of the panel ,wiping the flux off the panel to prevent tarnish, applying cement to seal the panel and make the lead go black and the polishing at the end to make a shiny protected finished panel that does not rattle.. This would take a hobbyist at least an hour . Maybe make a more comprehensive tutorial and less of the you can buy stuff.

Thank you sir! Best tutorial I've found on here! I'm transitioning from copper foil to lead and this helps so much!
A pro!!!!!! I’m learning how to do this tomorrow and I’m in awe.
wow this is hardcore, no gloves at all. this is an experienced pro right here. I have to watch this a few more times...love it.
Thank you. I haven't done this in 25 years. You've helped me remember.
I'm here for the same reason. It's been about 25 years too.

its always amazing to watch an ultimate master at work

That’s the good stuff right there…
Great tutorial! Thank you!
Thank you very much for all the details, you are honest and great :)
Great instructions. I heard details & products without stupid additions. Keep up the great work & thanks i will check out products.
Excellent video! Very informative and really helped me to understand the whole process. Thank you!
Great instructor
Great lesson must try it.
That’s awesome
That kind of work is very nice
how can you keep the lead putting from drying out?
Awesome beginner video!! I've always wanted to try this but I've been afraid. This took a lot of the fear away. Thank you!!
Just get a good soldering iron. Can't cheap out on that.
God Bless you! Your more man than me !!!! I wouldn't touch that lead with a 12 meter Cattle-Prod.... 👀
Great video. I would be grateful if you could kindly share a video of how to attach a barrel tube hinge and lock to and between two glass panels. Thank You 🙏🏻

Great introductory presentation. Thumbs up!
Nice clean work and finished window/
Thank you for taking the time to make this informative video. It would have been even more helpful if the camera person could have zoomed in a little on the work. Not very clear.
Thank you very informative.
Excellent! Thank you ☺️
I am very interested in architectural crafts, and leaded/stained glass windows are a big interest of mine.
Straight lines are so much easier, I chose a piece with a lot of curves for my 2 project, just need to lead and solder it now, I might try one window with the beveled pieces, they look pretty, not too expensive.
Arg, close up would have been wonderful, can't see a thing.
Great job Max
Nice

its kinda driving me mad. is cameraman asleep.....
A saw for lead? What on earth do you think that lead knife is for?
Nice work....thanks!!!!
How do you measure for the zinc frame line on the outer edge of the pattern?
excellent
Where do do you get your lead/zink saw blades?
Do you solder both sides?

hell yea
Hello how can I purchase the saw from Australia please ?
Can you send information on how to obtain the small saw please?
On ebay
Thank You , that,s help .
Do you still sell your saw?
What temp should your gun be at so it doesn't melt the lead?
Our schools mascot is Red Devils here in Lowell Indiana

I still want to do it though. Lol
Hi there, you don't patina the soldered pieces after you are done mudding?
this is cool. is a book on how to do this and how do I order one.
Great.
Olá boa tarde gostaria de adquirir uma máquina desta de fazer chumbo

a pic of finished product close up?
Could someone make a list of materials？😳
They should have a starter kit. All of the tools in one idiot-proof package.
Alguno en español por favor 🙏
Where can I buy the lead for my work
Glas per Klick

Hyper fast and I need to see close ups. Need to remake this video glass cutters.
No sound
Please check your computer connection. It has been working fine.
Can't see what you are doing because of the writing of what you are saying
You actually make me nervous. You're rushing thru this project. The camera can't even keep up.
not a good presentation. to fast and different terms used for the same tools. poor camera position. over complicated.
sorry but this is not a professional video. Putty should never be used for grouting a leaded panel. It is too soft and allows movement. A proper leaded light cement is essential
Where can I get that
