  • Information
    Copper Foil Technique:
    Purpose: Copper foil is used to wrap the edges of glass pieces before soldering them together.
    Application: Once the glass pieces are wrapped in foil, they are soldered along the foiled edges, creating a sturdy bond.
    Advantages: The copper foil technique is perfect for beginners because it�s easier to get started with and works well for most stained-glass projects.
     
    Choosing the Right Copper Foil: Width: Knowing which size copper foil to use is essential. Aim for the copper foil overlap on the glass to be between .80mm and 1.60mm�. For most standard copper foil-stained glass pieces, 5mm� 6mm foil works well.
    Emphasizing Areas: You can vary the line thickness by using wider foil or copper sheet around specific areas in your design. For instance, if you have an owl in a tree, use wider foil around the owl to create a thicker line and draw attention to it.
     
    Copper Foiling Thick Glass: Sometimes you encounter very thick glass pieces. In such cases, use wider copper foil or copper sheet. If you don�t have wider foil readily available, wrap overlapping foil around the edge of the glass until it�s properly covered.
    Storing Copper Foil: To prolong the life of your foil, consider:
    Using a Ziplock bag or similar to keep it airtight
