Hi Gang,

FWIW:

    Rio Grande has sets of stone shaped tips for wax hot pens. To use
    them the tip is attached to your wax pen. When the tip is hot, it's
    pressed into the wax, leaving a hole the size and shape of the tip.
    If you work with calibrated stones this may be an option. 

    They come in: square, marquee, pear, triangle, trilliant, emerald,
    oval & heart shapes. There a 9 different sizes in each set at
    $36.00/set. 

    Usual disclaimer, don't work for Rio or the tip maker. In fact I
    don't even have a set, but it sure looks like it could be a time
    saver. Saw it demo'd in Tucson.
