Thanks for the video request Balbir Grewal. If you have content requests please leave them in the comments section. I love to hear how I can help you in your stained glass journey. I will share what I know and the techniques I have used in my journey.
No need to foil where the hobby came will be. Also, if you have a Vice, use it to stretch your hobby came. In addition, they make a “stretcher” for around $15. Screw it to your workbench. It is the easiest thing to use and you come away with perfectly stretched came every time. Happy lobbying!
My recommendation is that you do not foil the edges where you are going to attach the hobby came. Gives you a much smoother edge. Fits better also. And dont attach the jump ring until you are all done with the hobby came. Great video though!! Good luck.
Thanks for watching! You can patina hobby came but need to prep it properly or you will get blotches of different shades of black. I have never tried copper patina on hobby came. You just gave me a video idea. I will make one on patina and prepping you solder and hobby came properly. Love it when I get questions like these.
Yes you can. I have used it on a 12” round. I would ensure not to have too long of runs without an attachment point between the hobby came and a solder line.
Yes it was. You don't have to do this, most just add the hobby came directly on not to waste solder. It is your preference. I like it to hold better and not pull away. Thanks for the question and watching the video.
You don’t have to, but I do it to seal it up and I think it gives it a more finished look. Only need to solder at joints and where ends come together. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching and the question.

Thank you for your instruction video very informative, I have a question, Can I use hobby came on an oval panel approximately 14"x 8"?
Yes you can. I have used it on a 12” round. I would ensure not to have too long of runs without an attachment point between the hobby came and a solder line.
May also think about a zinc edge for more rigidity. It will hold up better. Hobby came is softer.
So your flower was tinned all around before you added the hobbycam?

why are the edges tinned/
