Well I have changed web hosts, redesigned my http://southwestwoodcrafts.com website and have move things around with the newsletter. What it means to you, is that the past issues will not be available for a while, until I get them up on this site. Also you will need to change your bookmarks and favorites to reflect the fact that the Applied Pyrography Newsletter address is now:
http://appliedpyrography
.southwestwoodcrafts.com.
This will be the index where you will enter to the newsletter. Note: DONOT USE THE WWW. I know it is confusing to make changes, but these are improvements for everyone.

Don't forget to email me newsletter@southwestwoodcrafts
.com
with suggestions, improvements, or articles you want to submit. All help is appreciated!

I have added a new section to the newsletter that at first might not make sense. Recipes. What in the world does Pyrography have to do with cooking? Well, the origin of pyrography was probably discovered when the first cave people looked into the fire and saw the meat slowly changing color. Bingo! They could use fire to color wood, skins, bones, etc. So that must be the common link, isn't it?

So why not have a section in the newsletter, dedicated to those early pyrographers, and include cooking recipes? All pyrographers like to eat, so let's share those worthy recipes and include them here. The only thing to be aware of is to not use anything that is copyrighted.

 Most great recipes are handed down through the family anyway, so those should be great resources. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and even deserts are good ideas.
You can email me the recipes and I'll include them as needed into the newsletter. Blackened fish, steak and poultry seems to be a natural. No burnt toast, please.

Rollie Kohl has created a great tutorial on burning a Ram and has offered to share it with us. There are some very helpful pictures documenting his progress, as well as some very helpful text and guidance on how to do the burn. There were several techniques used along the way that he will share. This issue contains the third article of seven on the tutorial. Rollie has also documented his construction of the frame that he made for the burn.
The Ram tutorial begins on the project page.

Hope you enjoy this issue,

LAter, Bill
