Went to my post box over the border late this afternoon and found that Rick Hutchison had sent me a nice gift in a big brown envelope. Thanks a bunch for that Rick.
It was pyro paper both plain for me to print patterns on as well as some that he had put patterns on . This is one of his patterns he sent.

I had put pyrography on the back burner for the last while because the weather was mild enough to heat my shop and do a whole bunch of turning on the wood lathe .

After getting this gift I decided to try it out this evening. Bit of a learning curve but it worked fine. I burned the pattern onto the basswood oval right through the pyro paper and then finished the burning with the paper removed. Then I colored it with oil pencils and applied a couple coats of satin lacquer.

William,

Now that is very classy looking and as my wife said, Very Pretty! She's a hummingbird fanatic and mentioned to me that maybe I should try my hand at that technique....Yah right! *LOL*

Very nicely done!
