Solid Point Burner
The solid point “craft-style” burners are extremely popular amongst beginners to pyrography, especially because they are easier to grip and heat to a pre-adjusted temperature.
Solid point pens also tend to be more affordable and easiest to transport, as all parts are included in the pen itself.

Solid point pens do require quite a bit of patience though, as they can take quite a while to heat up, cool down, and burn the wood altogether.
