Does anyone have any tips on wire burning?
Over at T/R they sell these Kip Christensen Wire Burners Pen Turners i bought a set of these a long while ago, but i now go down the road of using the hardwood for my burning, no problems with wires breaking using this method ...

I have done what Woody suggested, works brilliantly thanks for the tip Woody.
I use a little jnr hacksaw with some of Brian's heater element wire.
Fat clumsy fingers nowhere near the spinny bit wonderful idea young man.
And I found I have more control over over the pressure I apply.
Recommended top tip for today.
Well you caught me by surprise there Woody, it's nothing special just a poundland jnr hacksaw with a bit of wire tied in knots.Good on yer George put a photo of it up so everyone can see what its like I still haven't made another one yet

I did think I might use the adjuster to tension the wire and guess what? It works perfectly, yet so simple even I could manage it all on my own LOL.View attachment 1538
