ALLISON KLINGER: On behalf of ExpertVillage.com, my name is Allison at Western Art Glass. And
today, we are working on the tools you need to do a stepping stone. Over here at the table,
I hopefully grabbed everything that I need, but if not, it's really close. I can just
step over and get it. We're going to need, at least, a glass cutter. Glass cutters, the
only thing that changes is the grip. So whatever you prefer, go with that. I prefer the pencil
grip. This is called a pistol grip. So anyway, there are those. There's your running pliers.
There's grozier, breaker pliers or stained-glass pliers. You need a pencil, okay, and eraser,
scissors with the groove in them. These scissors are specifically for copper foil, but they
are wonderful for stepping stones. These are called tin snips or wire cutters, and then
you need like a rubber mallet. You don't need a specific one but this is used for working
with lead as well. So I just use it for all kinds of stuff. Anyway, we're going to be
talking about our pattern on the next segment, so check it out.
