Burning Wood



I bought a dual tool recently from Black & Decker, a craft / soldering iron which comes with 7 different ends. Today I decided to have a play with it. I tried burning into this piece of balsa wood with a few of them just to see what effects I got. Quite impressed with how easy it was to use, but it takes ages as you have to switch it off and wait for the end to cool down before you can change it for another one. Next time I think I will either draw or stamp an image, but it was a good exercise just to get a feel for it.

    Wow, that's brill especially for a fits try. I'm guessing you have to get the 'feel' of the piece if kit before you can use it and it looks as if you've mastered it quickly.
