For around 15 to 20 bucks you can get a woodburning pen with for or five tips from most any hobby shop, Mihael's, Joanne's, Wall Mart, etc. Â*These are not great pyro products but can get you started reasonably. Also check on the post on carving vices. Â*HiHo posted a link to Dielle's site and he has instructions for assembling pyro station and pen, from common hardware store parts. should be able to put one together for around 50 bucks. Another site with plans and parts is Â* www.fishcarver.com Al |

Guess I need to pay more attention to links everyone posted. Will go back through the posts And retreive Hi Ho's post. I have a little Dial A TEmp and it works great. The only problem I have had with it is the pen handle gets way to hot after some use. Wraped some leather around it and it helps some. Anyways, Hobby Lobby, If any of you have that Hobby store, has several ranaging from $9 to $24 also.
