  Preservation Brief 33: The Preservation and Repair of Historic Stained and Leaded Glass
Came is prone to natural deterioration from weathering and from thermal expansion and contraction, which causes metal fatigue.
Came can have a flat, rounded, or "colonial" profile, and aside from a few specialty and perimeter cames (U-channel), is based on a variation of the letter "H" and ranges from _" (3.2mm) wide to 1½" (38mm) wide.
Lead and zinc came, however, is intended to be a sacrificial element of a glass unit assembly, as mortar is to brick and paint is to wood; came will break down long before glass and must be replaced; came lasts 75 to 200 years depending on the window's quality, design and environment.

 Working with Lead Came.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
Lead came is usually pure lead with nothing added, but some companies add alloys to toughen the came or make it bright, or encase it in a brass "skin" to provide a measure of inflexibility.
Although rounded came is actually stiffer than flat came of the same dimension (since more metal is used to round the surfaces), the choice of one over the other is generally a function of the design, not a matter of stability.
Place the came to be mitered across the top of the one it is to butt against and angle the blade of the knife to match the angle of the came you want to seat against.

 Gardner, Greek Ceramics
Early cames were cast around reeds which formed the grooves into which the glass was to be set.
When speaking of any metal came, but particularly with lead came, it is important to specify the alloy of the metal that is being used.
It is relatively easy to disassemble a window when the lead came comes to the end of its serviceable life (somewhere between 50 and 200 years, depending on the alloy and myriad design parameters of the window in which it is used).

Came joints should be examined closely; large globs of solder commonly conceal cames that do not meet.
In most windows, the came profile is essentially lost in transmitted light, but occasionally shadow lines are important and should be reproduced.,p> Furthermore, it is important to correct technical problems that arise from flimsy original came.

In the past 100 years, while we've widened our horizons somewhat by the addition of zinc, brass and copper cames, it is still the uniqueness of lead and its properties that interests us and is the topic of this paper.
Milling, in which the cames are rolled through a cog-wheel die of successively smaller dimensions is said to elongate the molecular structure, building inherent weaknesses into the came".
Firstly, lead came is more time efficient, thereby allowing the opportunity to pursue alternate and at times more creative leisure activities.
