Pyrography
« on: January 06, 2013, 01:17:06 PM »
hello all,
            I am currently drawing up the calendar for the forthcoming year at my club. I have had a request from one or two members about pyrography demonstrations. Now although several of our members,including myself,do use pyrography in their work I wouldn't call us experts in it's use. Does you know of someone who is very experienced at this and lives in or near to the west country?
Regards
John BHT

I can recommend Bob Neill for pyrography, based on a day workshop he did last year.  See his website www.bobneillpyrography.co.uk.  He also has a GMC book "step by Step Pyrography", which is a good practical introduction to the subject.
