Need help to find a special tool

14-01-2006, 01:21 AM

I hope, someone will be able to help or give me some advice.
I am looking for some kind of "HotMarks Tool" but wonder, if a soldering iron would do the same job.Provided it heats to over 750 degrees centigrade I believe, it should do the job I want to do.
But...I looked online all evening and could not find one which goes hotter than 450 degrees Centigrade.
Any suggestions would be most welcome

Keep on crafting

Are you after a tool that will make a burnt mark on wood?
Look under pyrography supplies.

Sorry - missed this. To solder at 750c or above it takes a torch. There's always the manual way, stick an iron in a fire and burn on.

I'm bad enough with paper cuts and knives so I'll keep well away from those temperatures.

Sounds like fun though
