Thank you for talking about PPE often times. It is just glazed over. I am glad you showed us what you wear. Thanks to your suggestions I might look into using materials that don’t involve lead like Something with a higher melting point, and also came without blood. Great video keep it up! Thanks for showing us your super cute creation!
Great tutorial Lottie, Just looking into having a go with stain glass in my spare time, I already make titanium rings (Ringcrafts), could I ask you were do you get your glass from, keep up the great work.
Hi ! I'm really new into the hobby and sorry if my question seems dumb, but how did you do the eyes and nose ? Did you just draw on the glass with a marker ? Thanks !
Depends on where you are I think! So if you’re UK, it’s on tempsford stained glass and the creative glass guild! For US, I think another stained glass artist gets hers from Amazon
What am i doing wrong my solder falls off in beeds and hardens immediately. It also doesnt run down the tip like this it just collects till it gets too heavy and falls in a lump. Im horrible at this apperently.
Nooo you're not horrible! Sorry for the delay in my response but this could be so many different things! It might be the solder you are using, there are different grades of solder as well as amount of lead. Though I think it sounds like your missing tip tinner on your iron, or possibly your iron is too hot. Hopefully you've resolved the issue now though! Let me know how you got on!
@@evanlane1690 lol no worries 😅 i figured if out! It was that my iron was able to get hot enough i had to hold it on longer and by the time i held it long enough to make that solder melt i was essentially burning it and it was only just getting to melting point so it would immediately solidify as soon as i let off
Thank you for this video! It's so informative and also very pretty to look at. I love the glass you used for the background, it looks so much like water! I have a question though, because you said lead is only dangerous when ingested. In my country it used to be a tradition to heat up lead, but then it was banned because of dangerous fumes that should not breathed in and that form when heating up lead. So is the lead you use for stained glass special in a way that does not produce fumes? Or can the mask filter that out 100%? I'm just very hesitant about the fumes because there has been so much information here due to the ban.
Definitely wear a better mask. One with replaceable filters should have an option for welders. That’s what you want. Otherwise go for an n100 HEPA particulate filter. Even if you are using lead-free WEAR A MASK. The hotter temps actually make the fumes worse. Anything rated for welders will be good enough for solder.
I place the came as close to the rings as I can get it then solder on top of the came joining it to the solder already on the ring. I hope that makes some sense, but I will make sure to add this into one of my future videos!
What makes a good TH-camr vs a not so good TH-camr is to answer questions. If it wasn't mentioned in the video that makes it even more important. If you want to help us and it is for educational purposes, then please take the time to answer. We really appreciate it! Just my opinion 😊
Bold of you to assume that every person who asks a question is worth engaging with, or that the creators have the time to sort through all the comments to find those worth engaging with in the first place.
The whole point of TH-cam is for internet creators to have a community. Removing the social element of it destroys the platform. Why would you use the platform if you don’t think it should be social. :)
@@TheNightshadePrince Hi Nightshade, I completely agree with you. She is acting like a little snot! I just unsubscribed. There are so many kind and helpful people on TH-cam, I don't need to waste my time with her!
have you ever used lead came on the edges or just soldering like normal? I’ve seen others use lead came but it looks overly complicated when you can just do what you’re doing here and it looks great! love your videos!

This was just an awesome tutorial with great camera and editing, as well. Thanks!
first of all your artwork is an aspiration truly amazing also this is probably the most helpful soldering video i've found thank you so much
Great tutorial Lottie, Just looking into having a go with stain glass in my spare time, I already make titanium rings (Ringcrafts), could I ask you were do you get your glass from, keep up the great work.
Aww thank you! I get most of my glass from Creative Glass Guild in the UK 🥰
Great soldering tutorial! Great work!
This piece is gorgeous! Vaporeon is my favorite Pokémon.❤️
I love ur hoodie hehehe where’d you get it 🥹🥹🥹
Hi ! I'm really new into the hobby and sorry if my question seems dumb, but how did you do the eyes and nose ? Did you just draw on the glass with a marker ? Thanks !
You can get a glass paint marker!
also what kind of paint did u use ?
I love your pieces so much! Can I ask what do you use for painting the eyes?
Thank you! I use a pebeo vitra glass paint, I buy mine from Amazon 🥰
Where you take the glass??
Your artwork is amazing! Wishing you many, many SG sales! 🥰
LOVE your curly bangs!
do you think you could link that tip tinner you're using to clean the tip? I've tried searching for it on Amazon and can't find it!

This is a pretty late response, but were you using flux? You need to use flux to get it to stick.

sososo helpful, ty sm. feeling confident to start my first piece now.
Very informative video, Lottie! And your piece is beautiful. So happy I found you.
Thanks ! I have a question for the eyes of the vaporeon did you paint over it or did you paint and put it in an oven ? thanks
I painted the piece before soldering, and yes I do cure the paint in an oven :)
@@created.by.lottie Thanks for your response !
Thank you for sharing your work, it very educational. Does the iron need to be shape as a screwdriver? Why not a pointy iron? Thanks
wire wool i nice idea, used brass sponges from solder tip cleaners but they a bit to much for lead
Hola, me gustaria saber que materiales usas me podrias decir porfavor
Thank you so much! Your art is gorgeous.
Great tips. Thank you
Ok now I need to start doing this !
You make it look so easy.
What do you use to paint the eyes? This piece looks amazing btw
this is what i am wondering too
💖💖💖💖💖💖Thank you☺️!
Great tutorial!

@@Raiethstar Thank you! I will look for a mask for welders!
After you soldered the jump rings, How did you put on the lead came in that area at the top?
I place the came as close to the rings as I can get it then solder on top of the came joining it to the solder already on the ring. I hope that makes some sense, but I will make sure to add this into one of my future videos!
Thanks

@JezeBellaMorte No ignoring people isn’t being an introvert it being rude.
have you ever used lead came on the edges or just soldering like normal? I’ve seen others use lead came but it looks overly complicated when you can just do what you’re doing here and it looks great! love your videos!
She did use lead came on the edges in this video! 🥰
