· Step 1: Remove Glass
To keep from breaking the precut pieces of glass, remove them from the package using an
X-acto Knife.
|
· Step 2: EXAMPLE: Foiling the Glass
Using the 7/32 copper foil, position the glass in the center of the foil, wrapping the entire piece. Overlap the foil where the ends meet about 1/8.
|
|
·
Step 3: Burnishing the Foil
Use a fid or Lathkin to burnish the foil (use a hard,
thick and rounded edge of a plastic or wooden Lathkin to
press the foil flat on all sides and edge of the glass). Burnishing smoothes the edges of the foil and adheres the sticky side of the copper foil tape to the glass. Hold the glass pieces in place with push pins.

Step 4: Fluxing the Panel
Using a flux brush, apply the flux to the copper foil lines. Flux comes in a liquid or paste form. The flux etches the copper, which allows it to accept the solder.
·
Step 5: EXAMPLE: Soldering the Panel & Cleanup
Tack-solder at the joints to keep the pieces of glass from moving. Run a smooth, rounded bead on the front and back of the panel. Tin the outer edge of the panel and attach hooks for hanging.
|
|
·
Step 6:
Optional Attach Wire for Chimes
Form the pre-bent wind chime wire attachment at the bottom of the panel and solder in place. Clean the project with warm soapy water and flux remover. Apply black patina. Using a glass wax will give a shine to the glass and the solder and prevent oxidation. Attach a chain to the hooks.
·
Step 7: Attach Chimes
Using the diagram on the Wind Chime Accessory package attach wind chimes to the panel.
