For the few interested : preparing for Soldering. The alloy will be the classic 60/40. With my personal flux.

Wow what a grandiose piece!

What difference do you find between personal flux and regular solder flux?

Also considering how large your piece is do you do all the joints at once or flux them in waves?

Personal flux: not corrosive , none toxic, easy to clean.

Yes: all being fluxed at The same time . More efficient and prevents further oxidation

Very pretty work! It reminds me of when, in times past, my dad had a hobby of making small stained glass designs. This is truly artful!

Thank you. Happy it gives you good memories

Wow! This is awesome, so glad I found you.

I like the leaf print. Maple leaf? šŸ

Yes they are . But they aren’t print : this is ā€œgrisailleā€. Or simply glass paint . It is hand made and cooked to approx 1250 F
