Stained Glass work
I had the opportunity to take a class on stained glass. I have really been enjoying this new hobby. The only downside has been the piece of glass stuck in my foot and a few occasional burns from hot solder.
I have been making Christmas gifts so some of my pieces will not be displayed until after they are given away.
My first project was a panel with a rose, and since I made some jewelry boxes. Yesterday I made a snowman, it took a little over (6) hours, the candy-cane and the star took a couple hours each.
I use lead-free solder so I had to purchase an 800 degree iron tip.
I'm thinking it might be fun to teach a class at the community center some time.
