Does stained glass still use leaded metal to hold the glass together?
Older stained glass obviously still has lead in it, but they have alternatives now if you’re making new stained glass.
Interesting, thanks for the answer :)
I remember my mom playing around with stained glass for a while back around 2004, because the house needed a repair of some old leaded glass and why not learn more? She was using lead stuff but idk if that was because it was the only thing available or if it was just to use the same materials.
I still use lead solder, there’s lead free but it’s use it’s not super common as far as I’m aware.
I remember using solder with lead in my electronics class in 2004. Removing lead from stuff still feels pretty recent
I still used leaded solder because I could never get lead free to behave for me.
That’s my first thought too. Plus it’d be a bit harder to clean algae off the glass, and harder to see the fish off course. Maybe just stained glass for the back?
It’s been seven seconds since my last confession.
“That is a myth my goldfish son. NOW GET OUT OF THE BOOTH!!!”Why would Catholics feel guilt when seeing stained glass? From being not in church often enough?
A Catholic’s natural state is guilt. They can look at toast and feel guilty.
I mean
I mean if you stopped painting the guy getting murdered…
And here I thought it was getting onto their knees, opening their mouths, and allowing the lord’s body into their receiving and patient mouths
Science
Or that Catholics actually have guilt…
