I love my Dremel burner. I messed up and bought the cheapest burner i could find first to see if i liked pyography and it was broken after 2nd project, could have been user error. Then I bought the Dremel and it was a big difference in the heat and comfort for my hand. It was easy to work with and didn't leave my hands cramped or feeling extremly sunburned like the cheaper one did. It totally changed what I was able to do and made it so much easier. The tips are quality tips too. Also, an extra plus is that I sold the first project I did with this burner and it turned out great, best of the gourds I have been burning. I got an offer and actually hated to see it go.
