Review by Library Journal Review

The craft of woodburning, or pyrography, has been greatly aided in recent years by improvements in the pens and nibs (points) used for burning. Easton, an expert woodturner and metalsmith, discusses basic mark making and decoration techniques using purchased and homemade nibs and applies them to practice projects using designs copied from many sources. There are not many books available on the craft, and this will be welcome in general collections. (c) Copyright 2010. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
