Great tool for working with black carbon paper.

Should have ordered a long time ago. I make garden and interior decorations out of wood. I used a dull pencil to trace the patterns with carbon paper underneath. The lines were very light. I get nice dark lines with it! Great tool.

Pros
  • Wood carving tools
Cons
  • write later

Works great

I have used this with wood transfer paper for wood burning projects. Easy to use, it has a fine tip for tracing fine details and a larger tip that's great for outlines and text. It took very little pressure to get the image through the carbon paper, so I don't have to worry about it ruining the finish of the softer wood I use for some projects.

Pros
  • Kraft paper
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Great for transferring hand embroidery designs

So far I've used this to transfer designs onto Essex linen and Kona cotton with graphite paper and it works well. A thin point is great for tiny lines of detail, while a large point is for thicker lines and larger details. I wish it had a more ergonomic grip as my carpal tunnel doesn't work well when I need to trace a drawing, but I'll try adding a pencil grip and see if that helps.

Pros
  • Woodwork
Cons
  • Can't remember
