Just a silly question.
Has anyone put a Pyro unit into a CNC and used it to draw their picture with?
I'd like a big $100 note just burnt into 3ply.
Think it would look cool.

Dave no idea if you have ever seen Graeme Priddle's work with his home made piro kit, I saw it a while back at Blaxland Blue Mountains open day.

I have just replaced my burnt out home made kit with a Razertip bought from Jim Carroll at the Brisbane WWW show and in my opinion it is the best on the market for detail work. I still use my Ironcore that I originally purchased after watching Graeme Priddle demo at his first Turnfest (I think 2004) and it is a great machine for heavy burning particularly using one of Graeme's pens that I got from him at this years Turnfest although I find it a bit awkward to use and I have made a smaller more comfortable version.

I would recommend the Razertip as the best "all round" burner using Razertip pens.As Jim said try and get to a demo, the pen and nib versions depends a lot on what you want to achieve with your "burning".
Cheers Kerry

Hello NZ carver,
Have to agree...I got one from Jim at the Sydney WWW show, including some additional pens. Absolutely terrific and compliments my ironcore beautifully. Drillit.

It takes a lot to keep me off a lathe for more then 3 days
But I have not Sean the lathe as I have been playing with my razartip from the time I got it home.
I got 2 other pens aswell when I got it plus the 3 I got when I got the pack deal that jim had and have just ordered 4 mor today :q
