That is awesome looking.Going to do some woodburning. It has been months since I have touched this TruArt kit.
Pattern is printed on plain white paper. I rub pencil on the back. Tape into position on the wood. Then go over the outline with a pen. The pressure from the pen transfers the pencil to the wood. I keep the printout nearby as reference. Wood is a piece of select pine from B2V.

This kit is the cat's meow in terms of wood burning. Over $200, but worth every penny. Heats up and cools down fast. Two handles so you can easily switch between two different tips without a waiting period to swap tips.

Before you use a tip for the first time, you must anneal it. Here are some I've used before.

Morning, Mr Bone. Good to hear from you. I was close to Iowa last week. Freeport and Sterling, IL.

It reduces the hardness to make the tip more workable. So it doesn't become brittle and break off. A broken tip would be a very bad thing. It could damage the wood and ruin the experience entirely.There's a joke in here somewhere.
I did. Just late to the party.Nobody got the joke...
