[suzie Q]

pauline i am going to do a window between my lounge and hall .i was wondering how do you start it .To make it round do you put lead all round in a circle and tack it so it will not move and work on it like that .i am not sure how to go about doing a round one .

Hi Sue
doing circles are hard I just lay out my template and then grind my peices to fit and I hold then in with metal pins until I have every thing fitting you just have to make sure your peices fit in your template it take a lot of pins do you work by pattern I don't think you want to solder anything in on till everything fits hope you understand hope I haven't confused you more let me know how you make out
