Stained glass restorer/creator artisan. & Hand tool woodworking. Why? Because restoring is being part of the BTC realm. Not buying sh”& that will be useless in 2 years … but like BTC will be there as an Heritage . Creating beauty through Light and Glass is being true to a code : beauty of well Made Human things. Let’s get glass crazy!
Notes (13)
With daughter on site . This is the Path for me . Artisan’s transmission. What’s the relation to BTC? Sustainability . And hope for Real quality - over quantity.
Read the words : Faith & Hope. Makes me think a bit of where we stand in this realm. Except the word Faith maybe . I would prefer:
Hope & Verify.
Another day at the work desk
Having fun posting for the few interested . Follow-up on the re installation of the restored stained glasses.
Thank to all.

Glass …beauty . Nothing compares to it.
Mostly not cheap glass and windows .
Masking tape is my friend …/))
Look at the colours on the walls.
You will see the beauty of mouth blown glass: all the irregular shapes given by the artisans .
State of leads joints . Extremely bad for such young panels. Also, extremely thin leads, and extremely “soft” leads. Bad ventilation system. Faulty design (weight distribution).

Beginning of another important “chantier “. Some may not appreciate the design . But the quality of the glass is tremendous . All mouth blown .
