Is it possible to get lead poisoning from making stained glass art?

I'm looking into the hobby but need to know the dangers of working with the lead. Thanks!

From personal and anecdotal experience I would say that no, you don't need to worry about lead poisoning from stained glass work.

As far as I know, you actually have to injest lead (as in children eating lead paint chips causing the lead paint laws). In stained glass you touch lead came, but it's solid and you obviously won't be putting it near your mouth.

There are fumes from solder, but you can buy lead-free solder. But industry folk usually say it isn't necessary, as solder is mostly tin and aluminium anyway.

If you're just a hobbyist, and not a high-volume studio, the amount of lead is not going to be enough to be a problem. Even so, simply take sensible precautions like latex gloves, face mask, and a well-ventilated area. And don't eat food in your studio and wash your hands after you finish working.

I think stained glass is a fun and safe hobby. Oh, and keep some bandaids nearby too!
