5.2 Using Different Nibs
The kit includes 36 different nibs for various effects:
- Wire Nibs: Ideal for fine lines, detailing, feathering, crosshatching, and intricate patterns. These heat up quickly and offer consistent burning.
- Solid Copper Pen Tips: Suitable for creating broader lines, shading, and filling in larger areas.
- Professional Pen Tips: Designed for precise drawing and rendering, depicting delicate and complex details.
Experiment with different nibs on scrap material to understand their unique characteristics and find the best fit for your project.

5.3 Working with Different Materials
Different types of wood and materials (e.g., leather, cork, gourds) have varying densities and moisture content, requiring different temperatures for optimal burning. Always test on a scrap piece of the same material before working on your final project.
- Softwoods (e.g., pine, basswood): Generally require lower temperatures.
- Hardwoods (e.g., oak, maple): May require higher temperatures.
- Letlalo: Typically requires lower temperatures and a lighter touch to avoid cutting through the material.
Adjust the temperature setting to a higher value if the burn color is too light, or lower it if the material burns too quickly or deeply.
