I Pyrograph many of the bobbins that I turn or whittle. Never thought of
doing it under magnification, but that would help to make a neater design.
I even wood burn designs that I plan to paint, it makes the design pop out
(like a gimp ) I think the light brown burn lines or dots look really nice
on light wood. And as someone wrote, if you fill the burn with paint, it is
below level of rest of surface and less likely to wear off. I usually
finish with Tung oil finish ( the main ingrdient in spar varnish) But most
people spray with polyurethane.
Hobby wood burning kits are not expensive. I got mine at Michaels - a USA
nationwide company that sells all types of craft things. The kits come with
several tips. I mostly use the sharp tip of the pointy one.
