    Copy and paste the one you just typed. Or try running the Windows program charmap. Very useful. Type charmap in the run box.

    The ~ is the first key on the keyboard next to the #1. You can place that on your carving board and move it around. or find or make a font style that prints that way.

    Press the Windows Start button and type charmap either in the search box or the run box. Better yet, go find it as Connie says and drag it to the desktop.

    Type the text first. Then, as a separate text, type the "tilde" (~). It's in the top left corner of the keyboard. Using the mouse, drag the "tilde" over the "n". (See example)

    It's actually better than typing separate text boxes. Just difficult to find.
