[Woodcarver] Just a question

[Donna Menke]

I did something similar once on a chest: http://www.woodworks-by-donna.com/MISCELLANEOUSWOODWORKING.html
I had the children sign the wood in pencil- then I woodburned over their handwriting. Beginners would not do a good job with burning- especially kids. This worked out well.

My question is, I don't want it to run or bleed 
through the wood when everyone signs it so what would be the best thing to sign 
it with? The blank is basswood & I was thinking of using Bill's SSW method 
to finish it.

Sounds to me the 
best way to sign it is with a woodburner pen 

Colwood tip " MC "is very suitable for that 
purpose 

It is a silver tip and writes very good on low 
temperature
