[Woodcarver] Best wood burning tool?

[Jim Wright]

I used a colwood for years.  I started making my own tips and found colwood did not have enough voltage so i switched to Burnmaster.  You can buy the tips separately and they  economical.  The Burn master is a little pricier but well worth the $.

 Personally, I think all the major brands that you will find in a woodcarving store are pretty much equal. Some prefer one, some another. I am happy with my Nibsburner but I don't think they are making them any more. Fortunately, I can use Colewood tips with it.

 I find the colewood "detailer" works great for bird's and is relatively reasonably priced. Tips are easy to change and you will find you need to use just a few different tips for most birds.

Dear List members,
I am a novice woodcarver who has started a somewhat ambitious bird carving. I am nearing the point where I will be detailing the feathers, and wish to get feedback from more experienced carvers than myself about the best woodburning tool.  I am looking for a set that allows precise temperature control and that has a variety of tips for different purposes. Suggestions welcome, thanks in advance.
