Stained Glass With Frame

When putting together a stained glass project that will be in a frame, do you put it in first, or do your soldering then put it into the frame?

Milly's reply: You don't say whether you mean a wooden frame, or whether you consider the outside lead to be your 'frame'. If you mean wood (or another material apart from lead) you would solder the stained glass panel first before putting it into a frame.
The outside lead 'frame', however, is part of the leaded panel, and is done at the same time as the rest of the leading. I hope this answers you question.
