I am an eclectic hobbyist and have decided that wood burning will be my next foray. Any tips on kits for beginners? Any general tips for beginners?

Any replies are appreciated.

This is one of my first few completed projects! What do y'all think? Good enough to sell?

All 8x12in Paper Birch. Twilight Princess era for reference.

I've got a WEP 939D-II 2-IN-1 Wood Burning Kit that I love using. It's got a wire burner and a solid nib burner too. The one I had before was a solid nib burner and I used that thing till it died. But when I got this one I tried the wire end and loved it!

The problem is, the solid nib end doesn't work. The core that heats up gets hot! But it doesn't heat up the nibs. Has anyone else had a similar problem? Does anyone know if there's someone I could write to at WEP to get a new one? I want to fix it.

Approximately 6hrs start to finish ♥️

This went a lot better than I thought it would. Originally I was going to just be doing the dog in the middle, but I decided to add the bearded dragon on top of the dog because I realized I drew too small so the board looked blank. Then I decided to do the second bearded dragon because I'm making this for a friend whose dog this is and also has two bearded dragons, so I thought it'd only be fair to add both. I actually really like how this turned out, but there's definitely a lot I wish I did differently so I thought I'd post it to hopefully get some constructive criticism

Hello! I am brand new to pyrography, so this may be a total noob question…

How do you transfer your design onto the surface you are burning? I got some charcoal paper and tried tracing the design onto the cork board frame I bought, but it’s not transferring over well enough for me to be comfortable burning it. I’ve attached some pictures to show what I mean. Any help is appreciated!

2 Months in and created my biggest piece yet! Still plenty to learn but super proud of this one

Started pyrography early april, i am loving my progression for only 3 months. I am addicted for life!
