It's on bamboo & matches one I had done previously for her...

I figure it's a good use for a set of bamboo trays from Costco; here's the third one...

Now, I gotta get inspired to use up some beautiful oak that Tungsten supplied me with; thanks again, Mike!

I've actually looked in to this hobby and bought a book on it from Amazon. I haven't tried it yet but I will be near a Michael's today!! A questiom.....Will it set off smoke alarms?

It's never set off our smoke detector, & ours is really sensitive; it goes off every time we broil something in the oven.

Maybe it's because I breathe in most of the smoke....???

(Cough-cough...)

I think there are some fancy-schmancy units out there that allow you to adjust the heat, etc.; I don't have one of those.

Mine is a cheap unit I bought at a hobby store over 15 years ago; it has some inter-changeable tips, but almost always

just use the wedge tip for everything. Can still do some fairly detailed work, though....

Steve,

 

Do you trace the images onto the wood, use transfers or do you sketch free hand?

 

Either way, nice work!

Yeah,I have no discernible artistic talent :angel:smail: ; I find a pic I think I can work with & transfer it onto the wood with carbon paper.
