Getting flowers foiled with my glastar hand foiler.

Lil flower ready to be foiled.

A few designs in the works.

Time to get Haku cleaned and ready for polish.

After cleaning off the flux I use fine nonscratch scuff pads and 0000 steel wool on the solder.

First side of Haku roughly soldered together.

Adding lil hangers to these d20s.

Time to solder.

I’m really excited to finally have Haku all ready to be soldered along with a couple other lil nerdy things.

Any guess on what the other pieces are?

During my unexpected stained glass break I made a few hand carved wood signs.

My (part time) neighbor is a nice old gentleman who first asked me a few years ago to carve him a sign and offer to pay me even though I’d never carved anything. I am thankful for people who trust in my creativity and skills to deliver them a piece they’re happy with.

If you’ve been wondering why I haven’t posted much lately, it’s because our grinder needed a bearing replaced which took a bit longer than anticipated.

In the interim I was partaking in one of my other favorite pastimes - gluing lots of scrap wood bits together to make cutting boards.

Now I just need to put my grinding station back together and I can get back to stained glass projects! It was a good break for my creative brain but I’m ready to try some new stained glass ideas.
