Love it! Even though you are using just the blackest tones from your "welder" tool you have an excellent balance in the line work, ranging from very fine lines through the thick solid areas. What wood did you burn?

Thanks! Actually i don't even know which wood it is, as i found it. All i can tell is that its impossible to use a plane with it as the grains direction changes.

New? I am very impressed by how striking your work is. (This is coming from someone who wouldn't know which end of a woodburner to pick up.) I really do like your vision with this work.

Very nice start...I never tried it but I imagine it's pretty difficult.

Thanks for the comments. I think i'll try with birch next time. It seems to be impossible to get different tones with my tool, at least with that wood.
