Default I need a beginner pattern

Today a friend gave me a burner. All for free!! I am so excited. Now I just have to figure out how to make this thing work. I was given a Detail Master IV - Sabre model burner. I have 2 tips but I dont know what they are. lol

Is there somewhere online where I can find a free, simple (very simple) pattern to use. I have been searching but have not found anything. I found some really nice (read difficult...) patterns but I need simple.

I am so jazzed to have some kind of machine to try to learn on that I cannot stand it. Yipee.

Welcome to the list. Try

Woodcarving Patterns, Classic Carving Patterns Online, Wood Carving Designs & Patterns Online

You should find enough information there to keep you busy for a while. There is a section called woodburning 101 which is free.

Missy... You can download ready made patterns from Lora's website or with a piece of graphite paper , a pencil and a picture of anything that strikes your fancy you can make your own pattern. And the beauty of making your own pattern is that it can be as simple or as complicated as you wish! Google Imaging is a great place to find subject matter!
