really enjoying the glass content along with the art content its rly cool to see ppl work in different mediums!! and like. I dont know how I thought stained glass worked before but its not how it is at all its fascinating ahahah

I'm glad ya'r likin it, and honestly B4 i started learning it i didn't know how I thought it was done either dbsbsbsbsbs

anyways fun fact, Louis Comfort Tiffany of Tiffany lamp fame, those pretty stained glass lamps, is not the same Tiffany as Tiffany and co Tiffany. and he's actually a big deal in the stained glass world bc he invented the method that most makers use today. Prior to him the only way to make stained glass stuff was to use lead came(sic). which is a bar of H or U shaped lead which needs to be cut with a saw to use. (this method is still used for things that will need to stand up to a lot of stress like very large pieces or exterior windows) Nowadays we use copper foil that is wrapped around the edges of the glass, smoothed over, and then all the pieces are soldered together. this is a big and important change bc it makes the process substantially cheeper and easier and allows for those 3d shapes like you see in the titular Tiffany lamps.

#like tbh #the biggest surprise so far is how cheap it has been #mind you i use most of my scraps to make stuff to sell which almost completely funds the actual stuff i like making #so if i wasnt off setting costs that way it would be definitely a much harsher on the wallet hobby #but yeah #ive been wanting to get into stained glass for a while but i always thought it would be insanely expensive #nah #the most expensive part is the grinder and thats optional #all the rest 0f the tools can be got for sub #uhhhh #8+10+7 scissors if you dont already have those #sub 30 #* #i got my stuff from hl so i got the #'cripple nobody likes to look directly at' discount #tbh the biggest variable in price is the glass itself #most of what i use is like 8? usd a sqft #and i can make about 40-70$ in profit off that much if i can use it wisely #leading is annoyingly expensive tho but again i get that from hl with the aforementioned discount #no clue why i started this tag ramble #no one asked #but this is My house

There is a beauty to how some products (and software) are designed. Think scissors. If we want to cut something fast, we use the forward section of the blades (speed multiplier). Want to cut something fatter or tougher, use the rear end of the blades (effort multiplier); and cut slower, or risk breaking the scissors. And Mixer grinders. Need to grind coffee beans to a powder? Start with the low…

Family theme park apologises for drag queen act that left parents 'horrified': Boss confirms it will not take part in any future Pride celebrations after Ru Paul's Drag Race UK star used angle grinder on crotch during show

It showed drag queen Crystal, who performed on the first season of the BBC's Ru Paul's Drag Race and whose real name is Colin Munro.

He was seen wielding an angle grinder and wearing fishnet tights, a leotard and a pair of high heels as more than 50 people including several children watched the event, which was being held to close the park's Pride celebrations.

Performing to the tune of Scissor Sisters' hit Filthy/Gorgeous, Crystal made thrusting motions with his hips and ran his hand up and down the angle grinder while using it to make sparks fly from a metal plate fixed to his crotch.

Philip Miller, executive chairman of Adventure Island, told MailOnline in a statement today that there had been 'confusion' as to 'what we would allow or not'.

He added that the 'grinding act' was 'definitely a nonstarter' because it was not 'family entertainment' and vowed that the park will not participate in any future Pride celebrations, nor will Crystal be booked again.

Stained glass tutorial bc the birds are good for it.

The tldr with more resources and a few video tutorial links is here (link)

this is our target and this is our pattern:

if you're wondering why I'm just handing out the pattern to a piece i plan on selling, the answer is because all stained glass pieces are their own pattern. By posting the image of the piece i already gave you the pattern to it.

What you need:

1 sheet of printer paper,

scissors,

glue stick or a washable marker that works on glass,

grozier pliers,

curved jaw pliers,

glass cutter,

flux and something to apply it with,

60/40 acid free solder,

copper tape,

gloves,

eye protection,

soldering iron with stand and rheostat,

water proof sand paper or waterproof nail file,

black patina or black acrylic paint,

some kind of heat proof surface to work on. I use asphalt coated compressed fiber board because it was cheap and easy to get at the hardware store

a well ventilated area to work in. or a table set up outside, which is the most well ventilated area you probably can access without a key card to a chemistry lab.

finally: 1+ panes of translucent/cathedral glass.

if something is not pictured in the below image it's because getting it meant fighting my cord management or standing up to go get it. The white waffle grid thing is not necessary. It just makes clean up easier so I'm using it and also i was too lazy to move it. a box of nails is pictured, they are also helpful but also not necessary. especially if you are not using something you can easily push them into as a work surface

I'm just using my normal glasses for eye protection, you don't need anything super fancy but you do need something to stop any flying shards.

Anyways. Soldering and finishing is in a reblog of this. i needed more pictures than you can put in a single Tumblr post

Step 1 Pattern Prep

print your pattern out. once if you are just going to use a marker to copy it onto your glass, twice if you are going to glue it down to use that way.

you may notice my pattern is backwards. That's because i printed it out wrong and can't be fucked to go fix it. Anyways.

Number your pieces in the same order on both copies if you are using the glue method, for such a simple pattern it's not uber necessary but it's a good habit to get into. Larger and more complicated pieces rapidly become broken glass jigsaw puzzles if you don't.

Step 2 putting the pattern on the glass

the way you make the glass the right shape is by using a glass cutter, that bronzy thing with all the tape around the barrel to make it easier for me to grip. the way it works is it holds a very thin metal disk that you press into the glass to introduce a fault line the glass will hopefully want to break along. I said hopefully for a reason.

All cuts have to go from one edge of the glass to the other because that's what the crack will do when you break it. Keep that in mind while you lay down your pieces. I've used a marker to show how i plan to cut this pane but unless you're doing a tricky cut order you don't really have to do that

I'm using what i have on hand so how you lay your pieces out will probably be different if you've bought whole panes to work with. This is a much more wasteful way of doing it than i normally would, but the goal with this one was to produce a piece that doesn't require a glass grinder as those are an expensive thing to get when you're just starting out.

Also plan to cut on the Less textured side of the glass, the texture can get in the way. if you would like the texture to be on the front of your finished piece simply glue your pieces upside down onto the smoother side. also know that less textures glass is easier to use

I didn't have any more of that darker grey blue so I'm using a light bluish lavender piece instead. it looks brown because of the the yellow underneath it

step 3 cut the glass

take a piece of preferably translucent glass and practice this step a few times before doing it on your project.

Press the wheel at the end of the stylus firmly against the glass at one edge, the keep pressure as you push or pull your line. you will know if you're using enough force because clear glass makes a very specific noise when it's being scored. I can't describe it but you'll know it when you hear it. you'll also be able to see the score line from some angles, it should look like a very fine crack in the glass. I've also heard it described as "like a white hair has been set on top of the glass". do not stop, lift your cutter, or go backwards over the scorline you have already made. The crack is a Lot more likely to go off course and destroy your piece if you do.

do only one line at a time before using the grozier pliers to break the glass.

there should be a line on the silicone protector things on the edge of you pliers, hold them so that that mark lines up with your score line and apply pressure , start light and slowly increase until it begins to crack. If the crack immediately runs the whole length of the pane then your done, if it doesn't, rotate the pane and do the same thing on the other edge of the glass until it starts cracking from there too. if it Still doesn't meet in the middle help it along by tapping along the uncracked part of the score line with the tip of your pliers handle until the crack finishes the job. If it's a very long straight one you can also use the edge of a table to encourage the crack to form in the right place.

if the crack decides to go off your scorline just finish breaking that score line and then peel off your pattern piece and reposition it to try again. if you used something like an Elmer's glue stick you can reactivate the glue with a Small amount of water dabbed over the pattern piece with your finger.

Once you have most of the glass broken off use your curved jaw pliers to very carefully nip away at any extra bumps. like half a millimeter at a time, don't just bite into a big chunk, itll shatter the piece. The flat side of the jaws is used to leverage the piece against to break it that way. it's helpful to pick an orientation for your pliers and just commit to always holding them like that. with the flat jaw either up or down. It'll help you build the muscle memory and learn to use them faster.

enjoy your pile of broken glass and dream about the grinder that wouldve made this easier.

Step 4 grinding deburing.

use your water proof file or sand paper to to knock any little bits of broken glass off. it is Vitally important that you do this with the file Wet. glass dust likes to float on any little draft and it's Super not good for your eyes lungs throat or nose.

You can also take the time now to refine the shapes and sand off any little nubbins that are in the way.

once you're done use a little dish soap to remove the pattern and any grease or glue left on the piece. if you need to re number the pieces.

Step 5 Foil

foil comes in a handful of sizes, and in silver, black, and copper backed. The sizes determine how thick your leading will be, thinner foil, thinner lines. With art glass or very textured glass you may need to go up a few sizes to make it fit. The color on the back will be visible through clear glass so you might want to pick one that vibes with your colors. I'm using what i had, so i don't actually know the thickness. It is copper backed tho.

take your piece and your roll of foil and place the edge of the piece in the center of the tape so that there's an equal amount of hangover on either side. then carefully roll your piece to wrap the edges in tape. being sure to keep it centered the entire way around. when you get back to where you started let the tape overlap itself by at least a quarter of a centimeter or like 1/8th of an inch. then cut the foil.

use your fingers to smooth the foil down over either side of the glass. and then the handle of your scissors or any hard plastic object to firmly press out any creases in the foil. The smoother you can get it the better. because that will make the solder sit flatter.

use the second/primary copy of your pattern for reference and lay out your pieces on top of it. If you're using nails and and a softer work surface you can press them into it around the edges of your pattern to keep the pieces from shifting. for a piece as simple as this it's not necessary but it still might help.

Soldering is next up but I'm posting from mobile and have an image limit to keep in mind. so that will be posted as a reblog in a bit.

TOURNAMENT OF SOULS moveset: Draven.

Thought I'd give you a taste of the new series, so you know what you're voting for.

Playstyle: An aggressive rush down fighter, Draven specialises in getting in close with his axes and cutting them to ribbons. While he has projectiles that can bounce back, he’ll need to pick them up if they miss, leaving him open.

Special attacks:

DRAVEN LEAP!: Draven leap forward and slams his axes down. If it hits the opponent, it causes bleeding for brief damage over time.

Playing to the crowd: Draven looks to the camera and does the “Get a load of this guy” pose. The opponent takes increased damage if it finishes the taunt.

Axe toss: Draven throws one of his axes at the opponent in an arc. If it connects, it will bounce back and can be caught from a brief burst of movement speed.

Grinder: Draven tosses both axes along the ground, which return to him for an extra two hits if they connect.

Draven has a unique mechanic called crowd pleaser. The more axes he catches without dropping, a bar just above his super meter fills up. When it gets all the way, he can activate a powered up mode where he moves faster and hits harder. If you don’t catch an axe during this period, the buff immediately goes away and Draven briefly takes higher damage.

SOUL HEAT: Laughing Hyena: Draven does a series of spinning slashes with his axes before kicking the opponent away he twirls his axes for the crowd before throwing them at the opponent as they try to get up.

Victory pose:

Draven shows off for the crowd, juggling his axes before pulling the camera and giving a wide grin.

Quotes:

Draven: “There’s only room for one handsome mug, got it? But damn, I look good!”

Evelynn: “I love your look, but you’ve got wild eyes.”

Gwen: “Didn’t your mama tell you not to run with scissors?”

Irelia: “Would it kill you to relax a bit? You’re bumming the crowd out.”

Jhin: “I’d call that a Draven style performance.”

Lux: “All that sunshine won’t help you out, girlie!”

Naafiri: “Play dead, doggy. Good girl.”

Nidalee: “Better run away, kitty cat, I need a new fur coat.”

Nilah: “Quit smiling already! Creeping me out.”

Pyke: “Maybe your buddy can stitch you together again?”

Samira: “You know, with all your talk, I expected more flair.”

Sett: “Back off, momma’s boy, this is my arena!”

Shaco: “Ugh. You creep me out, man.”

Viego: “Could you shut up about your wife already?! Giving me a headache.”

Defeat Viego (Final boss form): “That eye of yours just got plucked out. Ha!”

Xin Zhao: “This ain’t your arena, old man. Back off.”

Yasuo: Crimson tempest? Pfft, more like red breeze.

Ending:

After Viego embarrassed him and gained the role of tournament host, Draven seethed with vengeance. That debt has been repaid.

With the power of the Eye at his disposal, Draven will now make his face unforgettable. But there is one person Draven still needs to impress.

His older brother, Darius.

Time for a family reunion.
