So I do this finishing touch on my plaques that have a lip around the edge, I darken that lip to give the piece a more finished look and it kind of frames everything out. The thing is.. the lip is only about an 1/8 inch wide, if that. And to get it darkened you have to apply pressure when you're burning it. Now, granted, I've done nearly 100 plaques and this is the first time this has happened... but let me caution you, don't let the burner slip off the edge of that lip. And if it does.... Don't let it make contact with your skin.
Freaking ouch.
