Tempsford or Creative Glass Guild in Bristol are the only .two I could
think of.

Creative list up to 20mm, but it's always worth phoning

So why doesn't google reveal 'came' as a lead rod?

Try "lead came". Its that "H" x-section lead extrusion that holds
staned glass together. And no, I didn't know that until now.
Thanks Mary.

Thats all very well saying "lead came" now, but when theres an important
word left out then it becomes a bit of an head scratching with the other
word missing.

Honestly George, I knew exactly what Mary was asking about. And I think
quite a few others also did. Often I do not understand - but this time I
did!

It does seem that some authorities spell it 'kame' - might be useful
in Scrabble that one ; now if you had spelt it that way Mary, everyone
would have dived for the dictionaries and been informed immediately

Think of it as a quiz, or perhaps the question was crouched in
the jargon that only a fellow stained glass enthusiast would
understand. No timewasters if you please.

Well of all the jobs I've done in my time I've never had the opertunity to
tackle leaded windows glass.
On saying that I don't have the desire to p*ss about with repairing leaded
windows glass.

Well I did for the full definition but as a bit of a crossworder, I
remembered a link between "came" and glazing although I couldn't remember
the precise definition.

Admittedly a word not in terribly common parlance. ;-)

More economy of effort on my part. It would be like saying "wet water", is
came mde in any other material?

Well, the okkard ones who wanted to take a rise out of me might have assumed
that I had misspelled kamP or kaLe or .,.. well you get the picture I'm
sure. There's always one - and it's often me :-)

To those who I puzzled I apologise. I've been brought up with the word, god
daughter of a proper plumber and glazier who let me do things in his
workshop from about six years old. But I didn't know what pargetting was for
many years - we all have different experiences.

As for Scrabble, you'd have to be using the appropriate authority ... I
always win anyway so nobody in the family will play with me :-)

Don't worry about confusion - "lead" is capable of providing its own
misreading. :-) "Lead came" sounds like something to do with going for
a walk with a dog - and the lead came too.

Thanks for that, it really is interesting, I'll tell Spouse.

I don't :-)

Or even "misleading" for my Chinese neighbours :-)

WALK???

I've seen arguments start over that...

"Came -like stuff" is made in zinc. being stiffer and harder, you make
make it smaller than lead came, which is how Tiffany got started. Now
as to whether or not this "zinc channel stuff" is "came" or not, then
it's not so clear.

Copper foil isn't came, because it's attached to the glass and joined
later.
