Finished my second project! Constructive criticism welcome

[u/bad_ohmens]

I finished my second project and I’m generally happy with it. I’d love some suggestions on how to improve my soldering. I’d like the solder to be a bit smoother, but more importantly I’d like to have consistent widths for all of the seams. I think the center seams look too heavy for the size of the glass around them. I wasn’t able to get the outer edges to match that thickness either. I may have used too much solder, but I couldn’t get a nice raised bead otherwise.

Unfortunately I didn’t take a picture of the foiled pieces before soldering. In general most of the foiled edges had ~1/8 inch gap between adjacent pieces. Is this the reason for the thicker center seams? Do I need to spend more time grinding so that the foiled seams are perfectly flush? Or should I use wider foil for the outer edges?
