Professional artists frequently use wire-burning pen pyrography pens. These pens have many interchangeable tips.
Skew Tips
There are two main types for pyrography skewtips: rounded or ball. Ball tips are easier to use for drawing straight lines or carving in cursive. Ball tips are slower to heat up or cool down but are ideal for shading or general details work. The skew tip is angled with a sharp edge at the end. Skewtips are most commonly used for cutting into wood. However, rounded tips can also be used for shading or carving irregular surfaces.
There are many types of skew tip styles, including different sizes and names. However, all are made of high-quality nichrome steel wire. Smaller tips are best for delicate linework and details, while larger tips are better for bolder designs. A variety of pen tips are used by Pyrographers. Each has a different function or texture.

How To
How can you measure wood accurately?
We have several ways to measure wood. We use a digital caliper (a tool used to measure distances), a laser level (used to make sure your work surface is flat), and a bubble level (used to make sure your work surface is perpendicular).
A digital caliper comes with two jaws. The first jaw holds the object, and the second measures the distance between them. The digital calculator is ideal for measuring very small distances, like the thicknesses or wood.
Laser levels use an infrared beam of light to project a line across the ground. A red dot is created by the laser. It is possible to see if the surface of the surface are even by looking down at it. Large surfaces can be checked for accuracy with laser levels.
Bubble levels look similar to a compass. The center of the device contains a bubble. As long the bubble is not in the middle, the device will show you whether the surface of the object is level. Bubble levels are good for checking the accuracy of smaller areas.
