Digital pyrography studio

Practice Your Burn
Before You Burn the Wood.

Upload a design, generate one with AI, or start with a blank board. Burn it digitally with a virtual pyrography pen — then print it at the exact size for the real thing.

WoodBurn.app is the web’s only purpose-built digital pyrography studio.

General drawing apps can sketch a design; none of them simulate the craft. WoodBurn models tip temperature, dwell time, stylus pressure and layered passes on real wood grain — then hands you a print-ready transfer at exact physical size. It is built for pyrographers, and nothing else.

13
pyrography tips, from fine point to spoon shader
20
ready-to-burn stencil templates
5
wood species with procedural grain
7
board shapes, plus true-to-size transfer PDFs

Practice a design as many times as you like on virtual wood before committing heat to a real board.

New — Photo Burn

Turn a photo into a finished pyrography piece.

Photo Burn renders your image the way a pyrographer would burn it — tonal shading, controlled line work and clean highlights — laid directly onto WoodBurn’s basswood board. Use it as a finished render or bring it into the studio to keep working.
