[@show_me_your_kitties]

I love that you accidentally gave the first wing some darker markings and instead of thinking you ruined it you just copied the markings on the other side, that is art! I always say there are no mistakes in art and you cant take it that seriously! Love it!

YOU'RE SO LIKEABLE AHHH i can't believe i found such a gemmm

[@cthulhukc7six6six37]

Shared this with 13yo daughter. I did wood burning and crafting in my teens and just got back into it. This video helped get my daughter interested in making her own art in this medium.

[@famasmaster2000]

I'm 48 yrs old but started to fool around with wood burning when I was about 12 yrs old with my older brothers wood burning kit. I have just rekindled my affection for it as of late and I am liking your videos . Well done and good to see the youth taking an interest in such a cool hobby . Good for you !!!

[@HeglaYoutube]

That is awesome! Love comments like these!

[@char_cxle]

I normally just skip the boring parts of videos but your so likeable and funny that it’s hard to even skip 5 second! Love your videos xx

[@leighbell8183]

I looked at your video to learn woodburning. I'm just starting out from scratch n loved your technique.. I am a lover of anything bee. You made it so easy to follow your advice. I can't wait to get started on my bee. Thank you Hegla. X

[@LaughterinIsaac]

Thanks Love 💛 I own A Gnomes Shoe Repair and am constantly practicing crafts, and this helped me out so much!!! Cant wait to make gifts for my customers ✨

[@lorinlentsch9849]

Thanks so much for posting this video! I’m about to buy a wood burning tool and I was looking for some videos on it before I purchased it and this give me the confidence to do it!! 😁

[@lenorewatts9669]

Thank you so much for this video, it was so helpful. I was on the fence about taking up (yet another) hobby. You have definitely converted me!

[@janwebster3749]

Just brought one to try your Bee is gorgeous can’t wait to play. Thank you

[@basicsyphilis8]

This was super chill & I’m definitely ready to give this a second shot. Thank you 💥✌️

[@Elmapalm]

just come across your channel with this video... you're great, had a pyrography pen for ages but it all went wrong first time abd never tried again so going to try again after watching this, thank youuu

[@sarahwest1983]

You are great at this, really easy to understand and likeable - I’ll be watching lots more of your videos as I learn.

[@BurnSavvy]

Some of my students want to start out burning block letters or buildings and those straight lines are a bear! So I was happy to hear you say not to do straight lines right out the shoot. 🙌🔥 I would add that the type of wood definitely makes a difference on how easy… or not… burning is. Basswood and poplar are good options and available at most craft stores.

[@ayubirana]

Hegla, I love your dirty humor, it is awesome. Thank you.

[@evelynhoward-donlin6260]

[@schwarty6]

I had an interest and impulsively bought a pen. It just came in the mail and I realized while I stared at it...I have no clue what I'm doing. So far, haven't started playing around with it, but this has been super helpful before I begin anything.

[@krissywiththerays2189]

Wow 🤩 I admire your skills! Plus having your own business at such a young age. Love learning from you. More vids please! 🥰

I'm so glad I watched this I was pressing hard af because I thought it had to be deep or it would fade 🙁 and am using the fine tip point

[@abbyjohnson1579]

OMG I love your personality!!

[@kaderees9304]

Gotta love how British you are like you explain then just the pure sarcasm is brilliant 😂😂

[@PENFOLD1962]

The 'Brown Halo' around the burning is a sure tell tale that you're burning with to much heat! I used to have the very same problem, until I started to burn in layers. Pine, Oak etc hold a very high amount of resin this causes the burning tip to stick and skip along the piece of wood, the resin also carbonates on the tip and lowers the heat! Apart for the not called for language thankfully bleeped out, a clear concise video 'Congratulations'. Take care 👍😷👍

[@spLiffyFOUR20]

just getting into this art, although i do not have a pen with a temp adjustment dial. so i guess im gonna wing it and experiment to see what tips work best with the temp it goes too haha. good pointers though, ill take the advice and see how it goes! i just went to your channel to see other art, and the first thing i see is your skateboarding videos, i skate, so im subscribing now to watch your progression haha. keep it up!

Thank you. Great video

[@yagmur849]

so beatiful hegla I liked it 🤩

[@freekbertens4729]

I've been doing this for gifts and such for some time on my own. But i did this in a way different manner (only now decided to see how others do it) and i put it on a temp like 700c and just burn small points allong the lines. Its also a nice aestetic might be cool to try, its a more time consuming method especially with whole black area's needing to be filled with little dots, also that other surrounding brown, kinda like it but to each their own i suppose

[@OllyFromAlaska]

I subscribed after the first 20 seconds lmfao I can already tell you’re hilarious

by no means am I an artist when it comes to drawing anything, but since I got a lot of one of kind sawmill pieces I have a strange itch to attempt to make some... I may just completely screw up the natural beauty of it all... but I am going to make an attempt... Thanks for the tips

[@falktor]

Wood carving is a hobby i picked up in middle school due to harry potter (tl;dr I wanted to makey own wand and a few friends asked for one too) Then in middle school we made stamps with a burning tool, I ended up making one that was a square that would leave an empty mark for the design then made one that qas just the design. Now four years later I finally have my Pyrography set! still only basic pairing knife for actual carving

[@PUre123uk]

Do you prefer the solid top burner versus a wire one and if so why? I'm new to this and started straight on the wire tipped machines. But now I'm thinking, would I have been better to go for a solid tip machine....I'm still liking the pictures and results I'm getting. I'm hopeful to make a few extra pennies selling my work. How much do you suggest is reasonable for a set of coasters? Do you varnish to protect them?

[@salmadoes_]

I have this same welding hot tool but for some reason it doesn't burn at all, is it maybe not strong enough?

[@rickyramleela4460]

Good one

[@allyskaleidoscope]

If your having trouble getting dark marks could it not be hot enough or pressing down too hard? The bee is incredible btw… just started and have done three Christmas pieces
