Thread: How do you sign your work? Excluding branding irons....

    I see no need of signing fire wood because half of my turnings aren't worth signing anyway.

    I use a fine tip pyrography pen. You might be interested in this video I did on signing your work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4V3WMhlIat4

    Do you the same for dark wood such as African Blackwood? Does it still show up OK?

    Great video Mike - very useful for my current issues and you've convinced me to upgrade kits.
    Thanks,

  6. In the 7th grade we were tasked with creating an artists monogram to use on our future art works. The teacher was one of those special ones who stays with me in spirit! He turned me onto arts and crafts as well for a lifetime. My wood or art gets that same "mark" which is two intials, one superimposed over the other. I use a woodburning pen on all wood items I create and the apply the monogram and the year. If the wood species is out of the ordinary or the wood source is special, I may add that too. It goes on in a out of the way spot. If I were commercial I do see the value added in using ones full name for recognition.

    It does beter on lighter woods than blackwood. Sometimes I rub in a gilt creme.
