Finally got my Razortip cranked up and decided to try a quick pc. Found a nice pc of Birch plywood at Lowes. Fairly happy as I have never used any wood burning tools before. Did learn that the tips make a world of difference. I started out with a very sharp knife edge tip making feathers in the head... Did not like the results. Switched to some more rounded tips. Anyway, I most likely should have bought a book but heck, I am a man, why read the instructions when you can just jump in with both feet. Greg |

Great first burning. Like any new skill, experiment with things, tips, heats, materials and effects. Practice, practice, practice. It's fun isn't it!? Smile Bob

Greg, looks like you made a good solid landing on both your feet! (Even though I'd recommend ALWAYS reading the instructions, but you won't probably listen any better to that advice than my sons do!!Sarcastic ) Excellant start though, we'll look forward to seeing more! Thanks for sharing! Deborah

I like this, You have done a convincing job by using the grain to suggest ripples and break up the reflection
