WOODBURN
A GIFT AND MORE
Woodburning, also called
pyrography, involves burning a pattern into wood or other material such as
leather. Patterns may then be colored and otherwise embellished. Woodburning is
an easy way to add your personal touch to gifts and ornaments.
The Wall Lenk 10 in 1 30 Watt Woodburning Tool and Accessories make it easy to begin woodburning and can also be used
for soldering, leather craft, stencil and Styrofoam cutting.
Learn the basic woodburning concepts and tips and techniques to inspire your creativity in Learn to Burn by award-winning artist and pyrographer Simon Easton.

Wagner Spraytech Spray Shelters
To help reduce overspray, Wagner Spraytech Spray Shelters are ideal.
Small Shelter (2-1/2 ' x 3' x 3-1/4 '.) and medium shelter (4'7” W x 4'7” D x 5'6” H) each have a built-in floor and rear vents to handle air pressure from the spray gun
over the front opening to protect recently painted objects.
Large shelter (6' x 9' x 5.5') has no floor, so use of a drop cloth
underneath is recommended. Shelter does have a mesh screen, which drops over
the front opening to protect freshly painted projects.

as offering protection against other dangerous fumes.
