Traditional, lacquer based kintsugi, fitting glass back together
These videos show fitting thick, beveled glass from the front of a grandfather clock back together with special glass lacquer. I had the glass flipped backward in the special holder I built and it took a couple of tries to get it in the right position. I have plastic wrap on the wood in the frame where the glass goes but since I had the glass flipped it won’t do the job I intended which was to block the mugiurushi from getting on the wood base. The camera cut out and I had to restart it which is why there are 2 videos of the same process.

Metal holder, traditional, lacquer based kintsugi
This is a tool used for sprinkling the metal on the lacquer. You load it up in the open end and the metal comes out the meshed end. The mesh stops any debris in the metal from coming out.
