Tools
A glass grinder is essential, and, thankfully, affordable! You can always upgrade later as you dive deeper
Unless you have a Cricut or a Silhouette or other cutting machine, you'll need a pair of these to cut your pattern. You can use regular scissors, but these take the solder lines into account with ease.
This is a great starter kit of glass cutting tools! Don't forget your oil…
Don't forget this! It will lubricate your glass cutter for easy gliding while you make your cuts.
Make sure you do your research and get the right size for the glass you choose to use!
These will protect your fingers while you grind AND solder.
Do your research to find the solder that will match your project needs. Don't use lead solder for jewelry and other specialty projects that will have prolonged exposure with skin or other sensitive things.
Make sure your soldering iron has temperature specific levels. You'll need different temperatures for different techniques!
Flux ensures your solder sticks to your copper foil!
Patina changes the look of your finished solder, in this case, it will be black instead of silver.
Patina changes the color of the solder, in this case, making it look like copper instead of silver
These brushes are used to apply flux to your copper tape for soldering
This will catch and hold all of the tiny pieces of glass that will come off when you're cutting!
This adorable little tool provides an easy grip on your glass while you're grinding and saves your fingers!
