Using an Outline as a Wood Burning Pattern for Pyrography
Okay now it’s time to begin burning, and one of the things that you want to keep in mind is always keep a scrap piece of wood near, that way before you put your pen down, I can play around with my dot. Adjusting and getting the line that I want, plus if I set it down for a few minutes and blow on it, I can put it back on there to avoid the black blob as much as I can. So always keep that handy. Right now, I’ve just basically want to trace the old line over that I’ve already put on there and I want you to start doing that right now. You’ve got to determine the speed in which you want to do this because you want to get it to where it glides on not leaving the black line. This time I want to put a little bit more heat, just go up in small increments.
