Drawing Lines with a Stringer

Japanese: ストリンガーで線を描く

Stringers are thin, rod-shaped pieces of glass. If you cut them into short pieces and place them on the layout, you can create thin bands of color that look like lines.

Use stringers (thin, rod-shaped pieces of glass) for line work and accents in your layout.

Temporarily secure it with glue so it doesn't move.

A stringer is a thin, rod-shaped piece of glass. It is about 1 to 2 mm in diameter.

If you cut them into short pieces and place them on the layout, you can create thin colored bands that look like lines. It’s easiest to position them with tweezers.

Since the material tends to curl when fired, it’s a good idea to arrange the pieces while visualizing their post-firing shapes during the design phase.
