Strong Line - Steel Reinforcement

$14.95 USD

Product Description

This copper-coated steel strip is very strong yet easy to bend. Fits between foiled glass pieces or inside lead came for invisible reinforcement. Measures 20 mil x 1/8", 25 ft. long.

To properly reinforce a panel, the reinforcement strip needs to be one continuous piece, being secured into the channel of the came on one side of the panel, worked in between the foiled glass pieces across the panel horizontally and then secured into the came on the other side.

Project by John Shiflett, from Delphi’s Online Artist Gallery. John reinforced his project with copper Re-Strip throughout.

When and how did you get started in stained glass? Ive been interested in stained glass for as long as I can remember. As a child, I would sit in churches and watch the (often) biblical depictions come to life when a stray ray of sunlight cast its illumination our way. Sun shadows dancing. I dabbled in many media over the years, trying to find an outlet for some of the visions careening inside, but none of them took. Drawing, painting - even watercolours - no amount of professional training could guide my hand in a satisfactory way. But then there was the glass. I lived abroad for a few years, and wound my way through Europe on my way back to the States when I finished my Peace Corps Service.

Chances are, right now, in reading this blog post, youre avoiding an overdue task. I too was avoiding a laundry list of work-related tasks in writing this. Procrastination is a part of life, and its certainly always been a part of mine. As a teenager, my parents would accuse me of putting off everything from piano practice to math homework. Id vehemently deny their charges hissing back, I work better under pressure. The truth was, I often felt overwhelmed, under-productive and anxious. Over the years, Ive been able to combat my avoidance issues using 4 tools. The trick is constantly reminding myself of these actions, because they do not come naturally to me. 1. Just Say No. I say yes to everything. Need someone to head up that event? Sure. Want me to design 12 posters for the Car Wash? No problem. Take your kid to daycare? Of course.
