How do you use woodburning with scrolling?

[harrisg]

I just got a wood burning tool to go with my growing arsenal of items to make scroll saw projects. For those of you who use this tool, I'm just wondering what kind of projects you've used it for?

Harris,
Check out Issue 20--It was our special woodburning issue. It gives all kinds of ideas on how to embellish your scrolled work with a woodburner.

harrisg, I have used the wood burner on pictures that I thought cutting the lines would weaken the wood too much. Such as, shingles on a roof or wood siding on a barn. Just single lines or some would call it veining. I think it looks better than cutting the lines, depends on the picture. Mick

Good point Mick,
I did that for the Moose Woodiimal that was in the Holiday issue...I wasn't comfortable cutting the facial features, so I burned them.
