Students work to trim pieces of thin copper foil. The foil will be placed around the edges of the cut pieces of glass.

Dan demonstrates some tips for getting the foil properly positioned around a piece of glass. |
A student works to trim pieces of foil. The foil provides a means for soldering the pieces of glass together. This style of stained glass is often known as Tiffany glass.
