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 |

if you are a woo dburner what do you use and why I have an older Detail Master: http://www.detailmasteronline.com if you use a real one what do you think of it It works fine ... My skills don't equal the potential of my system. i am thinking i might just repurpose an old soldering iron and just make some finer pointed bits myself The modern units have solid state controls. You can't get the same subtle regulation with soldering irons. Also, you can get a wide range of pens for various effects. |

Strictly hardwood burning and not intended for burning either softwoods or the manufactured woods like flooring, MDF, and or OSB. It is specifically designed to work on the more common woos like oak, apple, walnut, hickory, maple, cherry etc. Are they expensive? That would be a personal choice as to what you consider expensive. I bought a top of the line model and I could not be happier, money well spent and no looking back at all. I found that you could spend up to 4 or 5 times more for a great one over an entry level model. I certainly did a lot of research before plunking down the mula. Mine IIRC has a 5 or so year warranty and again IIRC 2 years on the electronic parts. I wish it came in Festool Green. ;~) The one I use is certainly real, it is a model made by Memphis, the Pro model. It actually feeds the wood to the heating area. I would not recommend using a soldering iron, they heat up much too slowly and they really don't heat the wood up like you would need. Here it is, https://memphisgrills.com/shop/cart-models/memphis-pro/ ;~) |

I only posted a picture of half my patio. I also built a mirror image of the space. I don't have to turn the built in, I just move the food to the other unit if the wind shifts direction. When I'm lazy, I simply buy twice as much food as I need, cook half on each and don't concern myself with the wind. You can solve just about any problem if you throw enough money at it. ;-) I used to have an issue with my son not being around when I needed him, so I solved that issue in a similar manner. http://media1.break.com/breakstudios...1/5/clones.jpg |

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 Electric Comet 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. `Casper |

to any other I have tried. I particularly like RT pens and layout of the burners. Their warranty and support is the best. it is pricey will have to look for a real good price though Electric Comet Yes the are pricey. I got lucky and bought mine off eBay. It was from an estate sale. Said it was used but I found nothing to indicate that when it arrived. I got the single burner unit, 4 pens, 2 wires and a tip cleaner, all for $120 including shipping.Some peeps don't like eBay but I can say I have gotten some great things off eBay with a little patience. 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 i have looked at them Electric Comet 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. don't think i know the optimas Electric Comet I usually find them for sale at shows but they are sold online and often on eBay. I don't like Detailmaster. Any burners with metal pens are silly imo. they are out of business and the website that was posted earlier is a scam/fishing website taking orders and charging credit cards but shipping nothing Electric Comet I didn't realize they went out of business. We have a dedicated duck carver in our carving guild who has one. His backup/portable is a Colwood Cub. If you are burning part-time or low usage, I'd recommend the Colwood Cub. For more serious burning, the RT, hands-down. good info to have Electric Comet 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. this one i have not heard of but need to check that Electric Comet You can find these on Amazon or in Michael's and Hobby Lobby. Most hobby type stores carry some of Walnut Hollow's products. A couple good info sites on the web that might interest you... http://www.sawdustconnection.com/Pyr...omparisons.htm http://www.woodburning.com/aboutwoodburners.asp Good luck! |
