<p>Made the page.</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>Foil Saddles are a means to prevent issues with [[Foil Split|Foil Splits]] in tight curves or other complex geometry. This doesn&#039;t work well for [[Heavy Textures]] of glass though.<br /> <br /> Put simply you are just adding extra foil below the wrap of foil on the edge and controlling where the split happens so you know there&#039;s foil below it.<br /> <br /> {{Todo|todo=Images for each step is needed.}}<br /> <br /> === Tools Required ===<br /> <br /> * Foil<br /> * Craft Knife<br /> * (Optional) Scissors<br /> <br /> === Step by Step Instructions ===<br /> Before you foil the part, follow these steps.<br /> <br /> # Cut a short bit of foil that will easily wrap from the top to the bottom surface of the glass.<br /> # Stick one end of the foil on one side of the glass.<br /> # Wrap the foil across the edge.<br /> # Burnish the foil onto the glass so it&#039;s tight against the edge.<br /> # Fold the last bit over onto the other side.<br /> # Repeat as required on the part doing all points.<br /> # Foil around the edge as you normally would but don&#039;t fold or burnish it.<br /> # At all the saddles you placed snip/cut the foil slightly.<br /> # Now fold and burnish your foil around the edge.<br /> # Return to all the saddles and use a craft knife to cut the extra foil away and make the saddle match what the foil should look like.<br /> <br /> [[Category:Foiling]]<br /> [[Category:Foiling Tips]]<br /> [[Category:Foil Rip]]<br /> [[Category:Foil Repair]]</div>
