Mo, I know you had mentioned the tool before and I thought the stylus was the same thing but I don't think it is. Yes send me an image so I can see what it looks like.

Yes, i have one of those tools too. But i burned silk with a soldering iron. And the edges with a candle flame. You can lay the silk on glass to use the tip of the iron.

oh and the heads from the hot wax stylus are interchangeable with it.  The kandi one.

what about the pyrographic tool. It heats up to 950F. I have the one from walnut hollow that has 11 different heads. I just so happen to have one with an american plug on it all brand new in the package if you want to buy it off me. I think it was $40 but you cna have it for $30 plus postage. I think it would work as it says you cna work onto leather,wood,and paper.

I am using it to burn holes instead of the incense, its quicker and you can do lines adn draw patterns with it. If you dont hold it down too  long you cna get drawn scorch marks which is cool.

I can send you a picture if you are interested Michael.

I bought the one with the american plug on by accident. I now have the one with an aussie plug as the voltages are different here.

I already ruined a tacking iron by using it with an adaptor. Somehwo it burnt out inside.

That's what I was thinking the stylus would do but nope. I've got some copper tools that I can heat and burn the cloth but I'm afraid it's going to melt into them and make them useless. I think I'm going to have to burn it before laying in wax.

Michael, I don't quite know how you would burn silk. I wonder if you can "brand" it as in branding a cow. That is, metal shapes heated to a temperature that would leave a burn mark but not burn through the material.

Josephus, thanks again for introducing me to silk. It works so perfect with rusting but I can't figure out how to burn it. I tried with an incent and torch but they both don't work. I might have to use the stylus.

I received the pat seg book yesterday, too.  I agree with Glenda that it's a bit artsy-craftsy, but that it provides some starting points for developing more subtle ideas.

And I must add my congrats to Mo ...
