H. L. Worden Lamp Crafting System
Tack Soldering

Do not attempt to build or bead up seams on the form. Check to see that each foiled piece of glass is properly pinned in place.

Apply the flux sparingly with a small brush by touching the foil only at the spot where the solder tack is to be placed. A solder tack is a small round glob of molten solder. Attach each piece to every other piece with small mounds of molten solder. Remove most of the pins.

The solder tacks can be removed to adjust the glass parts if desired. As work progresses wipe the surface with a wet cloth or sponge to cool and clean.
