Dan Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 ok a couple years ago i was playing with a diamond burr that the tip had worn down. and when i touched it to a inlay that i was doing it ended up burning the stone or the super glue leaving behind a black line. then i used this to draw lines on my stone. i created some cool details to a flower creating some depth. eventuly it stoped doing that and just ran across the surface. i just finished a koi fish inlay on a bowl and i want to add detail to the surface. i had thought to do the same thing to draw the scales and folds in the fins ect... but i have no real experience burning stone. or even drawing on the stone. does anyone know anything about burning stone? or know of a marker or pen that wont run and blur with the finishes. maybe i can etch the stone and rub ink into the etched lines. any ideas?

Janel Posted April 19, 2014 Report Share Posted April 19, 2014 Is this solid or composite stone that you want to burn a design into? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted April 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 Not sure how to answer that since it's lots of small stones glued together. So it's solid stones but it's composite since it's made of small pieces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janel Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 Well, you answered it. It is a glued composite of small stones rather than a naturally occurring stone-only stone. Thank you for clarifying. Janel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
