Hi Buddy

Yes Buddy, I've read this before and it is a very neat burning tool,
but especially on small turnings, you have only a small contact area,
I do like to go around a little ways.

Have fun and take care

Hey ol' timer!

I also like to bend the wire a bit...
this probably sounds weird, but on pens, I hold the wire either under the pen or
on the back side, so I can see the progress of the burn...

It's a real bitch to find out after removing the wire that you either burned too
deep, or that the wire made a nice groove but the wood didn't char...
