    That’s an awesome video I can take an old toaster apart or hair dryer an use the wire out of that

      Yes but in many the wire is quite thin. You may need to make the element quite short. The diameter is about the same as the tips I got for my Peter Child burner.

      Let me know how you make out. I’m guessing you know that you can get Nichrome wire on Amazon I have also used a paper clip in a pinch!

      Hey Lloyd the paperclip was for an emergency not sure it is good for a burner but I do have one of the heavier duty ones so I had no issue. I use 20 ga and 18 ga Nichrome@@lloydbannister8062

    Have you ever made a bigger tip for burning? Something that can do large pieces?

      The Masterburner I use can not really heat much larger wire but the the wire I use can of course be used on any size art.

    what kind of pen is that?

    • @peteblairakathemadscientist

      Its a pen from my Masterburner. I have the dual pen model and love it cause the pens do get a little hot if turned up and it's good to be able to switch then out.
