Glass for Leaded Lights? by
Maurice
Hi,
I am looking into doing some leaded lights/copper foil work,
but the price of the glass seems to vary quite a lot, some
of it appears to be rather expensive. So do any of you know
where the best prices are in the UK.
I live in the middle of East Anglia if that helps?
TIA
