Take your pick. Solid base is a little more expensive, and designed to be coated with stain and lacquer, finger joint will have the same dimensions, but because of the joints, will need to have an opaque finish.

Should you paint window and door moldings white or stain them for a natural wood look?

That depends on...1) personal taste... Some folks like painted mouldings - then there is the whole, paint all mouldings one colour (white or off white) or paint the mouldings to match the colour of the room debate, others prefer natural/stained wood.2) decorating style... If the home uses a lot of wood (paneling, wainscoting, cabinetry, hardwood flooring, etc) you may want to use stained wood. If the house is painted or wallpapered you may want to paint your mouldings (see the above on the colour debate).3) the kind of mouldings you can afford/find. Composite materials, pre-primed, and inexpensive finger-joint woods should be painted. Real wood, such as clear pine, oak and mahogany (if you can find it) can be either stained or just sanded and top coated with a top quality poly.

How did people in the Middle Ages make stained glass?

AnswerThey painted it. AnswerThe did paint it, to get details, but there was a lot more to it than that. Stained glass is made by taking pieces of colored glass and setting out to the shape of a picture. The glass is held in place by strips of lead that are soldered together, forming a dark linear element in the picture. The glass could be painted or not. It usually was painted to get such details as eyes, noses and mouths into the picture. It could also be stained to change the color. If it was painted or stained, it was subsequently fired. For example, a piece of glass could be yellowed by putting a silver containing paste on it before firing.
