Advice needed -- Cutting Narrow Strips by
Joe Cahill
I am having difficulty cutting narrow and long strips of glass. The strips
need to be about 1/4 inch wide -- length isn't too critical, but I'd like to

Suzan
Hi folks!
I recently completed a nice 4 panel lampshade with a fish motif, and made
(with a mold) a ceramic base for it. When I put them together, I found that

maybe Mactac, some...

Cleaning leaded panels by
G^2
Does anyone have any creative methods of cleaning leaded panels after
soldering and before putty? (large panels, not ones that can go in the
sink)
How clean is clean enough?
Any long term problems with zinc chloride flux residue?
