A giant Thank you for showing this procedure. It is greatly appreciated!!!

Thank you for this video! I read so many posts and watched too many videos only to find out that I need a lazer printer. Your the only person I've found that mentions this. Thank you!

By far, this is one of the most insightful videos! Thank you for being thorough!

Much love for the timelist

This is the best video on this topic I’ve seen. I watched several. . . . Followed all of of instructions and suggestions, and my photo turned great. Beyond my expectations.

9:07 was my favorite expression of using the flow of the wood grain for the right picture!

I've tried so many different ways to try to transfer pictures onto wood with not to luck. Until i watched your video, by far yours was the best I've ever tried, Thank you for the tips, you saved my alot of headaches , good job amigo

Explained in simple way . Thanks

THANK YOU ! I’m super excited to try this.

Great not boring

This was great. I especially appreciate the fact that you took the extra time for the very thoughtful tips at the end. Thanks!

Loved how simple and clear this video was!!!! Great work

Thank you so much, you have by far been the best to advise on how to do this x

Lucas, Thank you for the excellent lesson. Looking forward to trying it. I’ve seen many ways to do it but I will try your’s.

Hey, thanks for the idea - my daughter and I are going to give this a go today! Thank you for sharing!😊

Thank you for the advice, I tried and failed at this so many times I will have to try it the way you are telling us!! Thanks again!!!

I enjoyed watching because the video started off letting you know where various point's of interest were. Furthermore, you might consider using a Monochrome, or Black and White photo as well as consider the direction of the wood grain. I learned a lot the way you presented your information. It was informative, concise and left room for opinion and growth!

Thanks souch for sharing this. I found it very helpful and informative.

Thank you sir, I know what I’m gonna try this weekend!!

Best ever explanation ever👍👍👍

How much pressure do you use to remove the paper? I’ve watched several videos and nobody seems to say that. Your video is the most informative and glad that I was able to find it. Thank you.

Thank you for this video! When I tried this the paper seemed to bubble a little after I smoothed it down and it was too wet to smooth out again without tearing it. Any suggestions on how to fix that or is it normal?

This is great! Thanks! Can this be used on a wood board that will be placed outdoors, so subject to rain, snow, and other midwest weather?

This is the most thorough video I've seen on this so far, and the timeline at the beginning was very thoughtful! The editing is pleasant too! I'm surprised it has so few views really Thanks for taking time to make this! : )

IN HINDI,,hindi me video please......

good evening, could you please advise of the finish for the polycrylic, should it be better in satin, Gloss or matt? thank you, great video

it is nice

Have you tried doing the print on a wax paper or the glossy side of a sheet of labels (without labels of course). I have seen others doing it but not using polycrylic.

Hi . Thankyou so much ! I loved it ! This was really helpful ! I tried it on wood and the result was really good . What about other materials though ? I painted tin and tried to do on that and it didn’t succeed . Ink didn’t stay on . Do you think it’s a bad idea to do it on other materials ? Are there any tips you have for those ?

Thank you for the hint about taking the paper off in several layers. The other video I watched didn't mention that and I went in too hard and took off the ink :(

This video was very helpful. Did you discover the method for hard wood? Great video once again. Thanks man and good luck.

Thanks. Great video. I was wondering. I already have some polycyclic “spray”. Do you think that would work?

Does the finished project fade or yellow over time? Thank you for the video!

Will this same process work on canvases? Your video is very well detailed and the most helpful video I have seen. Thank you so so much x)

I used the minwax matte polycrylic to adhere my picture to cedar plank. I have tried to take all the paper off in five or six steps but when it dries it's completely cloudy. Did I put too much polycrylic on? It doesn't look like it's cloudy from the paper but rather cloudy from something else

Awesome video man, although my main problem when trying this myself is getting all the bubbles from under the paper. As soon as the paper touches the wood it wrinkles and creases when I try to smooth it out. Is this because I’m using too much polycrylic?

Thx a lot. I wonder if a roller works better than a putty knife.

Great video! Have you tried this with torched wood?

If you use hardwood just put a couple coats until smooth and let dry. May have to sand after each coat. I like to spray wood surface first to lift grain then sand with 400 grit.Then it's no issue to transfer after a few coats.

Also I use a small torch to waive across each coat of poly to burst air bubbles. I use foam brushes and with torch it makes it super smooth.

How long did u wait for it to dry each time you had re wet it

Hi, how do you apply a picture on white MDF board? (thanks!)

I saw you used gloss. can I use clear satin polycrylic?

I wish I could share my failures. I have tried and tried to transfer with the polly. I have done a thin coat, a thick coat, and everything in between. I have waited any were from 1 hour to 28 hours. Every time 60 - 90% of the photo runs off with the paper. Ppl please, any suggestions would be SO helpful!!

Thank you so much - one of the best instructables I've seen! I am tempted to try it. Completely off topic, but noticed your sofa...is it a Hans Olsen (Danish mid-century)? I have two Hans Olsen lounge chairs that look just the same - the rosewood arms (and typically chrome/nylon strapping at the back) are quite distinctive features.

Hey thanks for watching and commenting. I don’t think that the sofa is a Hans Olsen. We got it off Wayfair so I would say it’s definitely nothing too fancy haha.

Nice, I think after the 2nd rub just take a damp sponge. It looks like you rubbed the ink off in the upper right corner.

Thank you for this!! Is there a way to make this food safe? I’d like to make a charcuterie serving try!

This was a very good video. I inkjet printed some pictures and was just curious if the polycrylic would go through the paper photo and ruin it, but I guess I'll just have to see if it does, lol. Thank you for sharing.

Hey thanks for watching! That’s a pretty interesting thought. I’m not 100% sure what would happen, but my guess would be that it probably will go through the paper and mess up the ink. Let me know what happens if you do try it! 😃

Have you tried coating the print, also, with polycrylic? I’m wondering if that would result in a more complete transfer.

I have the poly spray. Can I use that?

Can you transfer a picture to a piece of wood that has been stained but not varnished? Thanks for the video.

what paper setting you use for the laser to print on the label paper

Amazing! Very very cool. Do you know if this would work on already lightly oiled bamboo?

Thanks so much Charlotte! I don’t think I’d know for sure if it would work, but my guess would be that it wouldn’t. I don’t think the ink could make it through the oil, but maybe if it’s light enough it just may work. 👍🏼

I’m interested in doing this on a guitar body. Also the ink not staying could be from the wood being closed cell or open...

how long can last the picture on the wood ? Nice video, thanks

I,ll have to try this. Thanks. Can you get a laser print from an S D camera card ?

L should have watched your video before doing my project

Hey, looks fantastic, i'm trying to create one myself, what were the dimensions of the wood in your last photo? And how did you create the frame? Amazing finishing touch it would be for the gift i'm trying to create! 0 woodworking knowledge!haha

what is the "different technique" using an inkjet printer?

I tried various papers. Let’s see if I put enough polycrylic on

Why do you prefer the laser printer?

So, what happens if you do use a inkjet printer and follow your steps?

Do you know if this would fade away with rain? Wanna use this technique for some outdoor exhibition

Where did you get the wood and tbe frame?

Is the polycrylic just a water based varnish? As I’m in the uk and the brand you use isn’t easy to get from our DIY shops

Great video, so would I have to print this at home so that it's standard copy paper (rather than photo paper?)

Minwax polycrylic water based sealer. Gloss is shiny, satin is less shiny.

does an actual printed photo work? like the kind you drop off at the store for developing....

Question... want to transfer a photo onto a black painted (store bought) frame. Will this method work for something painted and already finished? If you have an email I can send example, but basically I am going to take a picture and extend the picture into the frame. Maybe you can visualize? Picture, surrounded by a mat, but the edges of the picture extend beyond the mat onto the frame. Preferably a painted black frame. Think night shot, a mat to isolate the picture, then a frame to extend the edges of the picture. Black frame for darkness of night but color image added to it to extend the picture... I hope that makes sense?.?.

Hi Lucas, or someone here, have you ever white wash the wood block before transferring? thanks!

Hey, thanks for posting. I just tried this and when gently rubbing the paper off most of the ink came off also. I used pine, polycrylic and a laser printed photo.
