    I wouldn’t recommend it. I do pyrography, and used one that screws in the tip. Thought I’d turned it off > 10 minutes ago, and used my index and thumb to start unscrewing it.

    I could first hear it. Like a tiny sizzle, imagine miniature bacon. It feels cold, but then I started understanding what the sound was.

    Then I realised I’d just gotten burned. Hard. It’s not big, but I kept my fingers in water for a while to cool. Now I just have tiny scars that looks cool.

    I’d rate it at 3/10.

    I know you said it as a joke, and I have no idea why I wrote this reply, but here we are. Do with it as you please.
