Wood Burning for Beginners - Learn to use Writer Nibs like a pro

In this tutorial episode, I will show you different styles of nibs. Then I will explain how to create the Easter Chick artwork using just one writer pen tip. It is completely up to you which style of writer nib you use. Any writer nib will work, included a number of brass tips. Because I want you to get the best results possible, I included troubleshooting section that covers some common problems. Lastly, I will share with you the color I added to the artwork. I felt that the addition of color didn't look good, but you might find the process of use. My goal with this video is to show you what writer nibs are capable of, and to help you get comfortable using a writer nib. Pen tip and nib refer to the same thing.
