I originally posted this question under the older thread for Lora Irish's book from last year. My question got buried in the congrats on the book.

I have a question about the practice board. On page 40 through 51 you give great instructions about the practice board. However, as a new person trying to learn, I'm not clear what tips to use to practice with. On page 42 there is one mention about the sample being created with "a small round tip".

Another example on Page 44 you mention making scrubby lines, and all that I can find with regards to the tip is: "Place the tool tip onto the board, and do not lift tip as you work ...." what tip are you using?

As a visual learner these are great pictures, but am I missing where to find what tool to use/try? (btw, I have a razortip unit and pens).

I realize I can just play with the tips I have, but am curious if I was wanting to replicate the samples. what tips were used. Thanks for any help.

I know Lora is VERY busy right now and hasn't had time to check the board lately. You may want to visit her website at www.carvingpatterns.com. Her contact information is there.
