A burn-out art from Russia 1

Look at this device on the picture above. This OLD SOLDERING IRON in Russia called “a burner out machine”. 

It was used to make drawings on the plywood, by plugging it into electricity outlet and making the needle at the end of this handle red-hot. In every Soviet and later in Russian school all the junior students got the skills of using this thing at their Applied Arts lessons.

Just look at those designs she has drawn with the help of this freaky Soviet machine and a few pieces of Russian Dolls.

All my dolls fit inside one another!!!
