creations.

Woodburning Project & Pattern Treasury 

$22.46 

From the simple beauty of a single oak leaf to an elaborate portrait of nature - 

the patterns of woodburning artist, Deborah Pompano are beyond compare. 

Inside this, her first book, Pompano shares techniques for getting started in 

woodburning. You'll learn what 5 tips she recommends, how to create a vast 

variety of dimension, shade and texture with your woodburner and how to 

develop your drawing skills for use in pyrography. 

At the heart of this book is an unbelievable treasure trove of patterns. In this 

section, you will find individual elements, border patterns, and central images 

which can be mixed and matched to create personal works of art. Or, you can 

refer to one of the authors complete composition patterns which weave poems 

and verse with imagery from the natural world to create inspirational 

woodburnings. 

The patterns cover a wide spectrum of themes including: harvest, arbor, birds 

and other wildlife, seaside, clipper ship, teatime, Native American, garden, 

floral, lighthouse, and much more. The book includes two practice exercises, 

one step by step project and close up instruction on lettering.

Woodburning with Cheryl Dow I 

$14.95 

Cheryl Dow’s first book includes 14 different patterns: Raccoon, Wolf (full 

body), Squirrel, Owl, Barn Scene, Lighthouse, Fox & Barn (cover, shown 

here), Merganser, Pintail, Chickadee, Butterfly, Fawn, Moose, and her now 

famous "Wolf Head". Again, there are three versions of each pattern, complete 

with detailed instructions. 

The preface and instructions are pretty much the same (outstanding) for both 

books. Although this book does not have a calligraphy table, Cheryl does give 

some directions, and what materials you'll need, on how to use transparent oils 

to colors your pyrography. 

After using two other top selling brands, Cheryl now uses the Optima 1 wood 

burner exclusively; and recommends it to all of her students. Her favorite 

Optima pens, used throughout both of these books are the PH12 (small skew 

w/ rounded heel), and the PH18 (Spear Point Shader). Be sure to have both of 

these pens when purchasing one of her books. A Heavy Duty cord is also 

recommended for most types of flat work pyrography. 

By: Dow 

Woodburning with Cheryl Dow II 

$14.95 

An award winning artist and teacher, Cheryl Dow has just released her latest 

book on flat work wildlife pyrography techniques. The cover, shown here, is 

an example of her outstanding work. 

If your wanting to learn how to do flat work pyrography, you can’t find better 

books on teaching this subject. This newest book is an addition her previous 

published works, with some new techniques and new patterns. 

Ten patterns are included in this book which include: Loon (w/baby), Mouse, 

Raccoons, Lynx, Chipmunk, Frog, Barn, Heron (cover), Deer, and a Wolf 

pattern. 

Also included is a calligraphy table, showing letters, technique, and flow lines. 

Although Cheryl uses the #12 pen to do her calligraphy, I recommend using a 

#16 or #8 pen (depending on letter sizes) as it is a bit easier to do. 

A finished, and flow line pattern are included with each outline pattern. So 

you can see what it should look like, and which way to burn lines/shading. 

Each pattern also includes detailed instructions, and any technique not covered 

in the preface.

Woodburning with Cheryl Dow III 

$14.95 

This book is for more advanced pyrographers, that have had more experience 

and/or have gone through at least one of her first two books. 

Although the instructions in the front of book are very similar, including an 

extra page on using the #13 shader pen for doing certain things, there is no 

individual text for each pattern. The majority of larger patterns don't include a 

"flow line" version (just a finished pattern, and outline pattern). 

(Note, the patterns with an asterisks "*" by them, do have a flow line pattern 

included.) 

The twelve large patterns are Iris, Naptime* (baby squirrel sleeping), Peony 

Singer (sitting on a flowers stem), Ship Ahoy (sail ship with lighthouse in 

background), Lighthouse landing, Little Gossip (two song birds on a 

flowering branch, facing), Eagle (looking over shoulder, standing on branch), 

Late Fall Debate (two patterns of Jay on a branch), Mama Cougar* (with 

cubs), Trillium Deer* (cover), Laying Wolves* (two, laying on a rock). 

In addition to her excellent large patterns, Cheryl has also included several 

(about 36) small outline patterns of various wildlife, scenes, etc.... 

By: Dow 

Woodburning with Cheryl Dow IV 

$14.95 

This book is for more advanced pyrographers, that have had more experience 

and/or have gone through at least one of her first two books. 

The instructions in this newest book are very similar to her previous books, 

but she does add a few more pages, and introduces two more pen tips that she 

has found very useful (the new #9m Micro writing tip, and the versatile new 

"Dagger Shader"). 

The patterns in this book (a whooping 51 of them) are a bit smaller than in 

previous books (two per page), as the inspiration for this book came from the 

IAPA pyrography listserver quilt project. Also, none of the patterns in this 

book contain "flow line" patterns (only a finished, and an outline pattern), as 

this book is meant for more advanced pyrographers. 

Here are the patterns, as they appear in the book. Each pattern takes up half a 

page, except the owl at the very end.

Kolrosing Knife 

$24.95 

Kolrosing is a little known but very beautiful craft having Scandinavian 

roots - often mirroring intricate rosemaling patterns. It has all kinds of 

untapped possibilities from decorating spoons, carvings, furniture etc., or 

making a picture. Draw with the knife just like you would a pencil (no 

shaving is removed). For tight turns and extra fine control the cut is quite 

shallow, levering the tool away from you with the opposite hands' thumb 

against the rounded back of the blade. Then take a pinch of extra finely 

ground coffee, (powder consistency) rub it into the carved area, sand away all 

excess coffee, apply finish, and voila! Some people eventually gain enough 

control to even sign their name. (Be sure to check out the VHS/DVD devoted 

to kolrosing). Blade is approx. 5/8" long.

Woodburning 


Optima #1 HD Large Skew (PH1) WB-008 $19.95 

Good for running quill lines, and burning larger feathers (like on life sized 

geese or eagle feathers). The longer blade burns long even lines, but turning 

radius is very limited. 

Optima #10 Small Skew - STD (PS10) 

Great for the miniature carver or anyone that needs to do small fine detailed 

work. 

Optima #11 HD Med Skew (PH11) 

$19.95 

WB-031 $19.95 

A little smaller than the Large Skew (1), has many of the same uses. Has a 

better turning radius & is stronger than the Large Skew (1). 

Optima #11 STD Med Skew (PF11) 

WB-030 $19.95 

A little smaller than the Large Skew (1), has many of the same uses. Has a 

better turning radius & is stronger than the Large Skew (1). 

Optima #12 HD Rounded Skew (PH12) 

WB-033 $19.95 

Like the the small skew, but can turn a corner real easily. This is the most 

popular pen that we sell. Get this one and the #18 when ordering one of the 

Cheryl Dow books!

Optima #12 Micro Round Skew (PH12S) 

Optima #12 STD Rounded Skew (PS12) 

WB-055 $19.95 

WB-032 $19.95 

Available now. An even smaller version of the ever popular number twelve 

pen tip. Song bird carvers will really like this pen, especially in the ultra fine 

version (fine pens tend to be even smaller than the HD ones shown). 

Available in extended version. 

Optima #13M HD Scale/Shader (PH13) 

WB-038 $19.95 

What originally started out as a Cheryl Dow design for flat work pyrography, 

was changed slightly via Scott Clinton to become a fish scale pen also. This 

tip is available in small, medium, or large sizes. The medium size (Shown 

here) is probably the most versatile for most carvers and flat work 

pyrographers. 

Optima #14HD RH Feather Edger Guge 

WB-041 $19.95 

This pen design is from Bob Guge. Anyone who has taken a class from him 

has probably made one. Great for burning in primary's, or anywhere you 

would otherwise use a pen to burnish or depress wood. Instead of depressing 

and moving the pen for each area along a line "like you would do with other 

pens", this pen is designed to act like a ski. Just put it at the start of your 

feather edge, and follow it. Saves you a lot of time. I recommend getting this 

one in the Heavy Duty Style, as it will stand up to the rigors of burnishing 

with a pen of this design. 

Optima #15 HD LH Feather Edger Bent ( 

WB-043 $19.95 

This pen design is from Bob Guge. Anyone who has taken a class from him 

has probably made one. Great for burning in primary's, or anywhere you 

would otherwise use a pen to burnish or depress wood. Instead of depressing 

and moving the pen for each area along a line "like you would do with other 

pens", this pen is designed to act like a ski. Just put it at the start of your 

feather edge, and follow it. Saves you a lot of time. I recommend getting this 

one in the Heavy Duty Style, as it will stand up to the rigors of burnishing 

with a pen of this design.

Optima #17 HD Hair Burning Pen (PH17 WB-046 $19.95 

This tip is used to make hair on your caricature or mammal carvings, instead 

of using a tear-drop shaped dremel bit, or micro-V hand gouge. Obviously, 

you may still need these other tools for wider furrows, but this pen will make 

short work of the medium to finer sized hairs on your carvings (up to 1mm 

wide). This tip is only available in heavy duty style, as its design requires a 

thicker tip wire. It can also be used to do fine hair/feather work, where you 

can adjust the width and depth of a line by just pressing harder (rather than 

increasing your heat settings). As this pen tip has a limited "choke point" in it, 

it may tend to get more heat to the pen body. 

Optima #18 HD Spear Point shader (PH1 

WB-049 $19.95 

This new shader looks a lot like the #5 spear point, but has squared off edges 

(not sharpened), and it is bent at a 45 degree angle for shading. Great for 

when you need to shade an area that's in a tight spot. 

Optima #19L HD Ball Tip 1/10" (PH19L) 

Optima #19L HDXL Ball Tip 1/8" (19LH 

Optima #19M HD Ball Tip 5/64" (PH19

CD 

Optima #2 HD Sm Round (PH2) 

Good for concave areas such as under necks. Good for not leaving a 

depression from the point. Can also be used for "stippling". 

Optima #2 STD Sm Round (PF2) 

Good for concave areas such as under necks. Good for not leaving a 

depression from the point. Can also be used for "stippling". 

Optima #3 HD Large Round (P3HD)

Optima #6 Chisel Tip - Std - PS6 

Optima #6 Chisel Tip HD (PH6) 

Some carvers prefer this for running quill lines. 

Optima #9 HD Mod Writing Tip (PH9M) 

$19.95 

$19.95 

WB-027 $19.95 

Used for writing your name on your carvings. As there is no "choke point" in 

the tip, it does tend to heat up the pen body more than most pens. 

Optima #9 HD Mod Writing Tip Small (P 

$19.95 

Very similar to the standard #9, but has the end of the tip ground 

symmetrically, and the end is perfectly round. This is a good choice when 

you need it for more than just signing your work like for "Pointillism" or 

drawing, and the "choke point" created at the end of the tip also keeps the pen 

body much cooler for much longer than the standard #9 pen does. The end of 

the tip for the 9M pen is about 0.040" in diameter (1mm), and about 0.030" 

(3/4mm) diameter for the 9MS pen. Look at the #19 pens if you want 

something similar but bigger. 


Page 117

Optima #9PP Pin Point Tip 

$19.95 

Another variation of the #9 & 9M, but it has been ground so that it comes to a 

sharp point. Good for when you need to do very fine dots or fine surface 

lines. It is sharp, so you may need to sandpaper the tip down a little bit to 

your liking.
