Product Description
Colwood Spade Fixed Tip Woodburning Pen
Colwood Spade Fixed Tip Woodburning Pen has a tip designed to scorch small areas of wood, especially for gradient tones, shading, and filling in. The Spade has a symmetrical shape which is sharpened on both sides.
The Colwood Spade Fixed Tip Woodburning Pen can be used in two different ways. One is to use it to draw the tip of the Spade back towards yourself. This movement will shorten the stroke. The other way to use the Spade is a long sweeping motion of moving your hand sideways. You will develop a rhythm for consistent overlapping of lines with the sideways motion.
There are two sizes of fixed tip spades for you to choose from:
- The 1/4" Spade has a wider tip and is shorter from the soldered end to the spade.
- The 3/32" x 1 3/8" tip has a smaller spade, but the tip is longer from the soldered end to the spade tip.

There are a few ways to keep your tip clean, use a leather honing strop, with aluminum oxide. Simply place a small amount of oxide on the strop and pull the woodburning tip across the strop surface or use a sanding stick with 320 grit to clear the tip of carbon while restoring them to a bright finish that creates clean strokes.
