woodburners tell all
was looking at some wood burning tools that are meant for that purpose
and no ohter
but they are expensive
if you are a woo dburner what do you use and why
if you use a real one what do you think of it
i am thinking i might just repurpose an old soldering iron and just
make some finer pointed bits myself

I use a single Razertip that I got off eBay, used. Love and prefer it
to any other I have tried. I particularly like RT pens and layout of
the burners. Their warranty and support is the best.
I also have a brand new Colwood Cub with two new pens sitting in my
drawer. Colwood makes good units and pens and their warranty and
service is good. Their pens are decent but I don't care for their pens
near as much as RazerTip.
I tried and liked an Optima but since I got the RT at such a great
price, it was a no-brainer. Decent warranty, meh service. Once caveat
is their boxes are plastic, so careful where you put your hot pen.
I don't like Detailmaster. Any burners with metal pens are silly imo.
If you are burning part-time or low usage, I'd recommend the Colwood
Cub. For more serious burning, the RT, hands-down.
If you want a soldier like burner, check out the Walnut Hollow Versa
Tool, the one with the interchangeable tips and temp control. Great
little burner for $25-$30 dollars.
