Pen 1

Comes with a digital temperature read-out, and can be adjusted from 392~896°F (200~480°C as displayed) for heavy-shading, darker burns, hot-stamping, and other techniques.

Pen 2

Can be adjusted from 482~1382°F (250~750°C as indicated) for outlining, light-shading, detaling, light-carving, and other techniques.

The Station Unit

We equipped the unit with two individual control knobs and power switches for pen 1 and 2.

You can turn ON or OFF, and set your preferred temperatures for the two pens separately.

Cost Effective Pens

Instead of an integrated design, both Pen 1 and 2 connects to the station via our safety receptacle.

You can easily swap out a pen that's reached its maximum lifespan for a replacement. (replacement pens, tips, and nibs are available in the store)

Long Strokes

Burn the artwork stroke by stroke, avoid excessively long strokes. When burning, keep the length of the long-stroke within 2 to 2.7 inches, and lift off the nib from the wood as the color fades. Allow the nib to heat up again, and apply the nib to the wood to continue the stroke.

Color of the Burn

Different types of wood with varying densities of material require different temperatures. Adjust the temperature setting to a higher value when the shade of the burn is too light. This station supports a temperature range of 482~1382℉ (250~750℃). We recommend setting the station at around 500-650°C for common wood materials. Or, if you’re burning on dense wood material, go for a higher temperature setting.

Shading

An overly-high temperature setting may result in a much darker shade than desired, and an overly-low temperature setting may result in a much lighter shade than desired. We recommend that you try out different temperature settings on practice/scrap wood to find the temperature that you’re most comfortable with (not too light, not too dark). Then, stick to this temperature and apply the strokes on the same spot multiple times to get a consistent shading experience.

With enough practice and patience, you are just one step away from being a talented crafter.
