Special Orders on Pens/Tips I Do Not Stock
I am no longer taking special orders on Nibsburner products that I do not carry in stock. If there is something you want and it's not listed on my site I suggest you contact Nibsburner directly.
Nibsburner's Warranty
Please refer to the main Nibsburner page for warranty information.
Is your fixed-tip broken?
It doesn't matter if your tip is out of warranty, it can be fixed or replaced. For information on getting your tip fixed or replace click here
Using Nibsburner Handpieces on Other Units or Visa Versa:
The photo below shows the Nibsburner Fixed-tip Pen. Their connection is different than Razertip and Detailmaster so be sure you have a compatible cord if you are using Nibsburner pens on one of these wood burning systems or if you are using a Razertip or Detailmaster pen on a Nibsburner wood burning system. You will also need a different cord to use a Nibsburner pen on Detailmaster power units. A compatible cord for use with Detailmaster or Razertip burners is available on the Nibsburner main page.

Nibsburner offers 4 different styles of wood burning Pen, depending on the type of burn wanted but because the fixed-tip Pens are more sturdy and provide the best strength and performance I personally use, recommend and sell fixed-tip Pen. All Nibsburner's pen's are vented to allow internal air flow for cooler wood burning, and have a comfortable cork finger grip.

Excess Shipping Charges on Small Items
Unfortunately I cannot customize the shipping, handling and insurance charges to accommodate small, lightweight items such as woodburning pens, cords, etc. Please Check out my shipping policy for information on refunds for excess shipping and handling.
In the past I have been doing manual invoices for people but it has become very time consuming on both ends so I am asking you to go ahead and order online. Once I process the order and shipping I will refund any excess charges through pay pal.

#NBF5BSM - Bent Spear Shader, Medium
EXCLUSIVE!
Exclusive to us! This is my bent spear shader (like the Razertip HD5MP and the Colwood E45) that she uses for everything! It is the most versatile shader you will find because it can get into the tightest spots that most round and square shaders can't. Good all purpose shader that can get into tight spots that you can't do with round or square shaders. The edges on these are NOT sharp so they will not catch the wood while you are trying to shade. It is by far the most versatile tip you will ever use because you can do so much more than just shading with it. Experiment and have fun and learn all that you can do with it. As an example, use the side edge for fur and hair, use the tip for fine detail work and calligraphy.

Pyrography Pen Holder
Nedra had been asking Alan to make her a pen holder to organize her wood burning pens for quite some time. Together they tested out several designs until they came up with just the right design that was efficient, didn't take up much space and easy to see the pens!
The holder accommodates up to 10 pens in their plastic storage tube. They are hand made by Alan out of solid wood (maple, birch and cherry) and sealed with a protective finish.
The pen holders are now available in my Pyrography Supplies Page
