Glazing in the Copper Foil Method
Again, I begin by taking a copy of the pattern and placing it on my workbench. I then unroll a suitable length of adhesive-backed copper foil, (see "METALS")remove the backing, and completely wrap the edge of the first piece of glass that I pick up. I rub the wrapped edges of the glass with a popsicle stick to be sure that the foil is securely attached, with no bubble or gaps. I then place this piece of glass on the corresponding place on my pattern, and go on to the rest of the pieces of glass, wrapping them and placing them onto the pattern.
When I have finished with wrapping and placing the pieces onto the pattern, I drive small nails around the edges of the assemblage of glass pieces to hold them snugly in position. Then I am ready for the next step.
