{wiki=Lead_burning}
Lead burning, also known as lead welding or lead joining, is a process used to fuse lead components together. This method is often utilized in various applications, including stained glass work, roofing, and certain types of plumbing. In lead burning, a heat source, typically an oxy-acetylene torch or a similar apparatus, is used to melt the lead at the joint where two pieces need to be connected. As the lead melts, it forms a strong bond when it cools and solidifies.
