Book Reviews of Stained Glass Basics: Techniques * Tools * Projects
Book Review: Nice photos, but...
Summary: 3 Stars
Years ago I took a beginner's class at a local community college, then raising a family took my time. My tools and glass sat packed away for years, now the kids are grown and I am starting out as a beginner for a second time. Once again I am taking a class and wanted a book to supplement my learning and practicing at home. The photography is very striking, the best part of the book. Instructions are very basic. I am doing copper foil and hoped to find more tips on how to correct foiling mistakes. If I hadn't done some soldering, the instructions would have seemed very vague. I have read over the lead glass techniques, which I have not learned yet, and I am truly lost, can't make any sense of the directions. Consider this a bare bones introductory book, and once you become more proficient through other sources, perhaps return to it to recreate some of the patterns.
