Question
when foiling the two pieces of glass.. do you foil each one and solder or do you foil the two together (as in one piece of foil) and solder.
thank for help

Answer
I use 1/4" foil on each of the two pieces of glass. burnish them down and do my pressing , then add the second layer of foil using wider stuff, different sizes depending on the thickness of the glass and the pressing. But wide enough to cover all the other foil.
