Ball

This set contains three tips: one for shading and one for drawing lines. Preparing the wood to burn is necessary for each tip. The tips are available in two sizes: small and medium.
Colwood offers two types RT and FT tips. RT stands short for replacement while FT stands to be fixed. The RT is removable and can be removed using a special tip puller. The FT is permanent and must be replaced when switching to a new tip. If you need to change your tips frequently, RT pens might be the best option.

How To
How can you accurately measure wood?
There are many methods for measuring wood. We use a digital scale (a tool for measuring distances), a laser-level (used to level your work surface), as well as a bubble level (used in order to level your work surface).
A digital caliper has two jaws that open and close. The one jaw holds the object to be measured, while the other measures distance between them. The digital caliper is great for measuring small distances like thicknesses of wood.
Laser levels emit an infrared laser beam that projects a straight line across the floor. A red dot is created by the laser. The line can be viewed down to determine if the surface has an even surface. Laser levels are ideal for checking the accuracy on large surfaces.
Bubble levels look similar to a compass. There is a bubble at the center of this device. As long as the bubble remains centered, the device can tell you if the surface has been leveled. The bubble levels can be used to check the accuracy of smaller areas.
