Default Melted Lead Lamp Shades?

Howdy - New to the group. Been into stained glass for about 10 years.
Mostly windows, some lampshades and candle holders, etc. Arts and
crafts and prairie style mostly. Anyway - I was wondering if anyone
knew how the commercial stained/leaded glass lampshade makers make
their shades. I mean, it sure isn't came that they are using. It
often looks as though they laid the glass out on a pattern with gaps
between the pieces and then poured melted lead in the gaps. Does
anyone know anything about this?

Thanks,

Brian
