Thanks, Robbielynn

You can buy an inexpensive wood burning iron at most art supply places...

Beware the addiction, though... My wife started with a $10 burner and now has a
$200 digital/dual pen/changeable tip setup...
As the price of the burning stuff goes up, it changes from "woodburning" to
"pyrography"..
Sort of like "shop" & "Shoppe"?

Actually, I am sort of artsy and may get
addicted like your wife.

Cool... there are many local and internet groups that can help a lot..
My wife is on a Yahoo group that she seems to like..

(I'd prefer my wood burning to be in the fire pit)
