Safety Notice: The Dangers of DIY Fractal Burning

⚠️ At Fractal Flow Designs, we specialize in creating unique, handcrafted chopping boards using the fractal burning technique. While we are passionate about the artistry of fractal burning, we want to make it very clear that Fractal Flow Designs does not condone or encourage DIY fractal burning.

Fractal burning involves high-voltage electricity, and attempting to recreate this process at home using homemade machines—such as those powered by microwave or neon light transformers—is extremely dangerous. These devices generate voltages far higher than a typical household supply and can produce powerful electrical arcs.

High-voltage electrical arcs are sudden, intense discharges of electricity that can jump across gaps in the air, traveling with incredible speed and heat. These arcs can cause instantaneous death, severe electrical burns, fires, and permanent injury. Tragically, many people have lost their lives attempting to perform this technique at home.

The risks—including the unpredictable nature of electrical arcs—are simply not worth your life. These arcs can leap across materials and surfaces that were never meant to conduct electricity, making them even more dangerous.

Fractal burning should only be performed by trained professionals, like those at Fractal Flow Designs, who understand the correct safety protocols and use commercial-grade equipment in a controlled environment.

If you’re looking for beautiful, safe, and expertly crafted fractal burnt products, Fractal Flow Designs has you covered.

Your safety is our priority — please stay safe and avoid the dangers of DIY fractal burning.
