the candle looking thing is Tallow flux and the solder is grade c 60/40, both from creativeglassguild.co.uk the lead is 5mm self adhesive came of ebay and the glass paint is lefranc and bourgeois vitrail "orange yellow" colour off ebay. The tarnishing fluid is copper sulphate, you can get this in crystals off ebay to mix with water. i made my own by dissolving copper pipe in white vinegar over a few months (it has other uses as well).
@robert lombardo In the UK, church stained glass *is* made from individual coloured glass, though, in the case of windows with details of faces, robes, hands, etc. the glass has artwork painted onto the coloured glass. Geometrical window patterns, however, are solely coloured glass pieces, joined with shaped lead strips.
As an artist who has done stained glass (for a business) for over 20 years, nice job, the patina and soldering steps are two that many people doing such a project would not bother with, but makes all the difference.
@@danielrichards5284 honestly, theres little business in stained glass anymore, unless you want to do it as a hobby. Wer actually sell a lot more of a decorative stained glass window film that looks like the real thing, just less costly
@@lewisb73 That's a shame that there's not much business for it, I remember growing up in the 80's and seeing all kinds of wonderful stained glass in people's houses. Not just the windows and doors, but also hanging ornaments that people would put up behind windows to add color to the house.
Fabulous job! Very authentic! I did a transom over the front door many years ago without any specialized materials. I used a black silicone caulk from a tube to imitate the leading and filled the coloured areas with transparent nail polishes It was on plain flat glass rather than the modeled surface. Many people have commented over the years on our beautiful antique stained glass. It is up high so it doesn't get touched or scrutinized too closely. lol. Total cost was about $20.
That is a neat idea with the nail varnish. Easier than going out and finding the stained glass paint. I want to do some stuff. It has some fine and delicate brush strokes to some of it. I could use acrylic, some of it is transparent as well, mix it thin, then add clear resin to the whole thing and it seals it onto the glass.
Wow, I just watched this entire series and I am truly blown away. You’ve done a spectacular job and the finished product really shows it. I suspect this door alone is worth a substantial increase in your homes value. Wonderful work, 10/10 and two thumbs up!
You obviously know what you're doing. And thanks SO MUCH for leaving ambient sounds in your video and not having any cover music. So much more meditative to watch.
Beautiful! AND excellent video editing.... pacing, close ups, explanatory text at just the right time & time enough to read it. Fantastic ~ a class in both “poor man’s stained glass” 😊 AND how to make a great video (!) Thanks so much!! You just made the world a cooler place 😄😄😄
The written commentary could stay on screen a bit longer, continually having to jump back 10 seconds to see the rest of the comment is frustrating for some of us with slower reading issues. Personally mine is due to a traumatic brain injury. Thanks for considering a couple more second on the subtitle type commentary in the videos.
Spirit vinegar is extremely useful stuff. Not only can you pickle onions with it and clean glass (among other things), but you can also use it in your washing machine to remove the smell of urine from bedding if your child is incontinent (bet you can guess how I know THAT one!).
What an amazing result, really lovely and artistic. I have loads of respect for the amount of patience you have to achieve this level of craftsmanship! Your videos are a delight to watch, thanks for sharing them!
Absolutely stunning work! I have an old 1930s farmhouse that I’ve wanted to do Stainglass in a few of the windows. This was a huge inspiration. I’m in the states, but I’m hoping I can find the same materials here!
Look on amazon and e-bay. Acrylic paint when watered down is transparent and someone mentioned nail varnish too. I am going to do some and cover it with Stone Coat Counters clear resin to seal it all in and you won't have to solder the ends down. You can buy stuff at Hobby Lobby and Michaels craft stores too. Testers paints are good as well. I have some and need to check it out.
@@inspire734 I can't handle smells... I use Water Based Polyurethane !!! Mixed with INKS... and powdered makeup (pigments)... Cheap at the Dollar Store!!! I also add Glitter (looks like small pieces of shattered glass)... It's Beautiful. I "Flip" RVs (on my 25th one right now) I used Gallons of the Water Based Poly...

Excellent - making a door look like all the doors I grow up with - remember those, the one's people were tearing out during the sixties because they looked so old fashioned - I have lived too long.
Enjoyed the video. You did a fabulous job on the door, transom and glass. Thanks for taking the time to produce the video. Y'all take care and God bless.
I'm a joiner / cabinet maker since I left school, some 32yrs now, and it's really satisfying to see old traditional techniques in use, your door vids are absolutely essential viewing and even better you're from God's own county itself, Yorkshire 👍👍
I was in Yorkshire for holiday last summer. Just a LOVELY place, the history is incredible, and every person I met was friendly and kind. Greetings from San Francisco, CA.
@@marthas8108 hi ems, ta muchly love for loving my Yorkshire through new eyes, it's true we are the warmest largest coldest place in England. Then God fucked straight up n created London xx
This is brilliant! Here in New Orleans a lot of the older, classic homes have been restored, destroyed and have lost a lot of the character they once had. I’ve always wanted to add a traditional stained glass window or door, but the expense is out of my budget. Now I will follow your lead and try to do this myself. Maybe I’ll practice on a smaller, inconsequential piece of glass 1st lol! Great job! Amazing work! Also, thank you for sharing the supplies/items you used! I’ll save this video and try to use the techniques you’ve shared. Hopefully, my finished job will look as amazing as your’s does! 🤞🏻👍🏻
It's so impressive and glorious: this is NOT a poor man's job! This is the work of an incredibly talented craftsman that's fit for million dollar mansions.
Great solution to the high cost of real stained glass! I have to say, it looks pretty good, and that's coming from someone who had a professional stained glass business many years ago. Plus, if it gets broken, that will be a heck of a lot cheaper to replace (other than labor, if you had to pay someone to recreate that).
I sat at home at 6:00 in the morning and watched this . So relaxing and interesting something transformed from its original form to so much more. Thanks for the inspiration.
Clever way to do the curve with that little piece! Also didn't have any luck with a different self-stick leading. Think I'll try it again but follow your wash and vinegar approach first. Thanks for a great demo video.
I absolutely love it !!!! Want to try this for my front door. It probably wont look anything as great as yours. But ill give it a whirl... Thank you....
Serioulsy impressive work, it looks fantastic. I love that you only used the one colour too. I'm about to embark on a renovation project, I'm saving this video for the future, very inspiring. Thanks!
Retired Union Scenic Artist here, with a few screen credits on Major motion films, so I have some experience....you may wish to try the scrubby side of a dish sponge, in place of the wire wool, as an option that shouldn't scratch. Lovely job!
Lovely! I did something similar in my door and windows but I drew out an outline with a marker pen, painted the glass paint and then fitted the lead. I'm going to try your method when I do my next project.
I did my home front windows about 30 years ago in the UK with Decroled think that is the same stuff you where using. Came with a paper pattern for the inside of the window and you followed it on the outside with the sticky back lead striping. It's stayed on all these years no problem. It did turn white for a while from rain but eventually turned black/dark grey. I didn't solder the joints though just overlapped and used the application tool to press it home. Smashing product but not available in Canada. Perhaps online but it's not a common theme here. They prefer mullion bars between the glazing. Brilliant job though M8 very well done. 👍🏻
I admit to some confusion. I thought this a glorious piece of work, so I have no idea why several hundred people gave the video a thumbs down. For me, it's clear instruction, gives me a great idea of how much time and patience is required to do something like this, sets out his materials and why he chose them, and best of all no distracting music. So, what's the issue?
It's a real pleasure watching a true craftsman at work, really enjoying your videos and learning a lot from them, thank you. One of my friends worked for the furniture maker Tim Stead (sadly no longer with us) in the Scottish Borders, if you haven't seen his work check it out it's absolutely stunning - the 'original' Burr Elm furniture maker and sculptor. I will say this though, you need to get that cement pointing out of your wall and replace with lime and also remove any masonry paint as that's what's causing the stonework to degrade - it's trapping in moisture, unlike your linseed oil paint. Watch Peter Ward's videos and you'll see what I mean. All the best.
thanks Nick i know ive seen peters videos, its made a right mess! all i need to do is chip it all off, the original lime is in good condition and the joints are only a few millimeters wide.
Wow, just discovered this & thanks for sharing. This has totally inspired me to have a go at this. My family home growing up had a specific design i'm going to try to replicate!
ahh.. thank you sir.. since i was a kid stained glass had a big magical thing on me.. always loved it.. that is the only thing i didn't know how to do.. now i know!!!!!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.!!!! may you prosper forever!
not really if you are dealing with lead came glass panel assembly, basically this skips glass pattern cutting, glass cutting, lead and glass assembly, glazing and cleaning process for that. All this adds is the painting step to give the color. It was the few extra steps he added that gave this panel a finished look such as the soldering and his cleaning/patina process
Very cool. never saw this done before. Looks really nice from the outside as well. My OCD started counting those tips of the fence and saw one missing lol. I really love the job and I think I am going to try a project like this.
Greetings from Ontario, Canada. Absolutely stunning project. Well done. I'm working on the design phase of a screen door for my house and just found this set of videos while looking for some inspiration. Watched all four at one sitting. You've got a "thumbs-up" and a subscription. I'll go and watch some of your other videos and look out for new ones. Work safe.
I found the text distracting. I want to focus on the workmanship and frequently had to go back and read what I missed. Video is for watching and listening to a description.
@@davecc0000 practice makes perfect. did u not read my comment? I can't hear for shit. This video would be inaccessible for deaf people if there had been a monologue with no subtitles.
@@i.robles5785 I agree with you. I can hear just fine myself, but I personally hate listening to people ramble on and on. Videos with subtitles over talking (or horrible music) will always get my vote!
I have just stumbled across your video's and have watched all of the Victorian door ones. Wow, that is one of the most beautiful doors i have seen. You really know your stuff my friend, it was a pleasure to watch you working. Incredible. I wish i had the talent {and the tools} to create something like that. Im going to watch the rest of your video's and tell as many people as i can about your site.
As I'm here prepping pieces for a stained glass job watching this video... have to say "it looks better than other fake stained glass pieces I've seen". Great results with tape and the extra step of the soldering the connections... makes it look more "real". As a poor man's stained glass... IT WORKS for the untrained eye. But nothing is as beautiful as a REAL STAINED GLASS window panel with lead came and cutter glass!
You have incredible skills and the patience of Job. You are easily the most well trained and tenacious woodworker on the internet. Is the workshop yours entirely, or is it a cooperative?
When using paper stencils or patterns you can use a spray adhesive to hold them down. Most paint stores, hobby shops, or craft stores that sell stencils carry it and it works very well to hold your pattern or stencil to a work surface. You can also use it to adhere patterns to cloth when doing upholstery work.
Very nice job sir When I started working l work for old glass company and trained in making leaded lights for 20 years + we did a lot of church windows l all so made the stick on lead then soldering I used gas iron this was ok for cane lead but I had to cool it down a little for stick on lead we used to clean the talow off with scribing brush and newspaper too black the lead and it polished the solder l miss doing leaded lights as l am a joiner now well done 👍
That is the best and most informative video I’ve seen on you tube I’ve been making Japanese lanterns with painted glass and soldered lead I’ve been using peabo vitral paint might give your suggestion a go 👏👍
Gorgeous thanks! Question please: I wouldn’t be able to take the door down or the window out so I would need to paint on vertical glass… surely the paint would run down? Or do the lovely people out there think it could still work? Maybe painting and immediately blowing with a hair dryer so it dries quickly??
Awesome work. Your whole door build is a triumph. I've gotta admit, you first got a click since I'm both a Yorkshireman and a bench joiner. I'm curious where abouts your based, if you don't mind me asking? Keep up the good work.
What materials are you using?
the candle looking thing is Tallow flux and the solder is grade c 60/40, both from creativeglassguild.co.uk
the lead is 5mm self adhesive came of ebay and the glass paint is lefranc and bourgeois vitrail "orange yellow" colour off ebay.
The tarnishing fluid is copper sulphate, you can get this in crystals off ebay to mix with water. i made my own by dissolving copper pipe in white vinegar over a few months (it has other uses as well).

I’ve saved this video. My new home has a 4 foot by 4 foot window next to the tub! Unless I want a public viewing, I’ll copy your idea! Thank you!
@@Offshoreorganbuilder church glass pieces are not just simply painted they're painted with vitreous paint and then fired at a very high temperature.
I don’t see a poor mans stain glass but a great craftsman that did a beautiful job on door window. Beautiful work!
Beautiful Artwork. Love it tbh. 5 is my number. Peace, Jules
😍
RIGHT!!! This is a GREAT Video.
That piece he is working on... if it were to be REAL Stain Glass would have easily cost $1000.
Incredibly mesmerising and humbling to watch an artist at work. Love this!
Poor man's stained glass would be a single sheet of glass painted. This is the real deal.
Watching you in awe as my husband comes in so proud of himself for taking out the trash...

When I was in Jr high, our art teacher told us the best model paint you could buy was nail polish... She was right. The stuff is amazing.
Having the video almost entirely silent is so soothing.
I totally agree.
Absolutely!
Indeed!

I agree.
The amount of work, materials, time, effort, love and craftmanship that went into this project would EASILY DEMAND a $5,000+ price tag.

Great to see your craftsmanship and patience and low fi production style
Glad you enjoy it!
Been making ART GLASS for over twenty five years, nice to see someone paint ( STAIN) the glass, even without a kiln.
Can the paint last long without a kiln
Initially I was asking myself...why am I watching this...but I am glad that I watched it thru...nice job
I've just watched the door build videos, and now this. What amazing craftmanship! I cannot believe you don't do this for a living...
thanks i enjoyed making it!
Lovely. Can't believe the difference it made to the stickiness when you thoroughly cleaned the glass at the beginning.
Spirit vinegar is extremely useful stuff. Not only can you pickle onions with it and clean glass (among other things), but you can also use it in your washing machine to remove the smell of urine from bedding if your child is incontinent (bet you can guess how I know THAT one!).
The final effect is fantastic, and looks very authentic. (I even like the simpler look of the silver caming on the plain clear glass.)
by far, the best Faux stained glass project i have seen
The solder and copper sulphate took it to the next level. Awesome work.

@@i.robles5785 I agree with you. I can hear just fine myself, but I personally hate listening to people ramble on and on. Videos with subtitles over talking (or horrible music) will always get my vote!
Stunning craftsmanship! Always wanted to try this after seeing George Harrison's stunning recording studio door window design.
I have just stumbled across your video's and have watched all of the Victorian door ones. Wow, that is one of the most beautiful doors i have seen. You really know your stuff my friend, it was a pleasure to watch you working. Incredible. I wish i had the talent {and the tools} to create something like that. Im going to watch the rest of your video's and tell as many people as i can about your site.
Thank you, much appreciated!
Cool makes me feel like if I ever got the urge to make stained glass that I could with this video. Thanks for sharing
I always enjoy your videos. It's great to see a true craftsman at work.
They look ahmazing!!! Well done! You must be thrilled with how beautifully they turned out. 🖐😷👍
That was absolutely amazing. Gorgeous work. Thank you for sharing.
Wonderful craftsmanship and attention to detail. Kudos!
As I'm here prepping pieces for a stained glass job watching this video... have to say "it looks better than other fake stained glass pieces I've seen". Great results with tape and the extra step of the soldering the connections... makes it look more "real". As a poor man's stained glass... IT WORKS for the untrained eye. But nothing is as beautiful as a REAL STAINED GLASS window panel with lead came and cutter glass!
Great job ! That looks like a very satisfying job and an excellent use of your time . Thank you ! ☺
I’d love something like this for my door. Lovely work, bro.
You have incredible skills and the patience of Job. You are easily the most well trained and tenacious woodworker on the internet. Is the workshop yours entirely, or is it a cooperative?
When using paper stencils or patterns you can use a spray adhesive to hold them down. Most paint stores, hobby shops, or craft stores that sell stencils carry it and it works very well to hold your pattern or stencil to a work surface. You can also use it to adhere patterns to cloth when doing upholstery work.
👍 Looks great! Curious if it weathers out the elements long term: moisture, UV, oxidation, glue degradation, fading of color, etc.
Very nice job sir When I started working l work for old glass company and trained in making leaded lights for 20 years + we did a lot of church windows l all so made the stick on lead then soldering I used gas iron this was ok for cane lead but I had to cool it down a little for stick on lead we used to clean the talow off with scribing brush and newspaper too black the lead and it polished the solder l miss doing leaded lights as l am a joiner now well done 👍
Simply BRILLIANT. You are a very talented man. All you do, you execute it to perfection. Your weight in gold, you are darling.
What an amazing effort. Looks like it was built with the house.
That is the best and most informative video I’ve seen on you tube I’ve been making Japanese lanterns with painted glass and soldered lead I’ve been using peabo vitral paint might give your suggestion a go 👏👍
This is brilliant. Thank you so much for posting this. I want to try this ASAP. Inspiring. Love it!
Your precision is such a satisfying watch.
OMGosh This is SSSSOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL
Absolutely Amazing...
Thank you so much for sharing this great video.
Gorgeous thanks! Question please: I wouldn’t be able to take the door down or the window out so I would need to paint on vertical glass… surely the paint would run down? Or do the lovely people out there think it could still work? Maybe painting and immediately blowing with a hair dryer so it dries quickly??
Awesome work. Your whole door build is a triumph. I've gotta admit, you first got a click since I'm both a Yorkshireman and a bench joiner. I'm curious where abouts your based, if you don't mind me asking? Keep up the good work.
And amazing facade and presentation. Thanks for sharing this wonderful video series. Cheers.
Oh wow i had no idea a product like adhesive lead strip existed. I cant wait to try this out. Thank you!
Oh my your patience. Lovely window
