Peter Child Pyrography Machine – Professional Wood Burning System

The Peter Child Pyrography Machine is widely regarded as one of the finest professional wood burning machines available. Designed and manufactured in the UK by Robert Sorby, this high-quality pyrography system is trusted by professional artists, woodturners, carvers and hobbyists alike for its outstanding reliability, exceptional control and long service life.

Whether you are adding decorative details to woodturnings, personalising gifts, creating artwork or producing detailed pyrography portraits, the Peter Child system offers precise temperature control and a lightweight ergonomic pen that makes even intricate work comfortable and enjoyable.

Built for Accuracy and Reliability

Unlike many inexpensive wood burning tools, the Peter Child Pyrography Machine has been engineered for continuous use. The robust steel control unit houses heavy-duty components designed to provide years of dependable performance. Many original machines remain in daily professional use after more than twenty years, making this one of the most respected pyrography systems available.

The ergonomic pen is lightweight, perfectly balanced and remains cool during prolonged use, allowing excellent control when producing fine lines, lettering, shading and detailed artwork.

Fast Heat Control

The variable temperature control allows you to adjust the heat to suit different woods and techniques. From delicate shading to bold, dark burn marks, the Peter Child machine offers complete control over your work.

The pen reaches working temperature in approximately two seconds, allowing you to work efficiently without lengthy waiting times. Temperatures can reach approximately 1100°C, providing enough power for both detailed artwork and heavier texturing.

Create Your Own Tips

One of the biggest advantages of the Peter Child system is its flexibility. Along with the supplied replacement wire points, you can easily create your own custom-shaped tips using the included nichrome wire. This allows artists to develop specialist points for lettering, shading, textures and unique decorative effects.

Replacement points are inexpensive and easy to fit, making ongoing running costs extremely low compared to many alternative systems.
