Stained glass Fanlight


Continuing with the reproduction Victorian Fanlight, a concerted effort this weekend has just about finished it. All soldering complete and puttied on both sides, leaving just the mess to clean up; putty and chalk dust can cover an amazing area. 
I am leaving it lying flat in the studio for four days to give the putty time to set and form a reliable bond. All that is left to do is polish both sides with graphite paste to darken and preserve the lead, and then the hard part; fitting it.
