The other couple of things I do with this method is firstly to finely spray your wood with water (the steam created helps to transfer the image better). The other thing is to use a desoldering station with a hot air blower. This will allow you to burn the edges to create an even more realistic effect. Can I take this opportunity to say I have a deep respect for teachers who think outside the box when educating our children. You do a fantastic job in what you do and your passion just in your videos, shows the commitment you give to the children in your care. Thank you so much, words never seem enough and as a parent, you are my hero.

I've been looking for the easiest one for a long time

Thanks for this. I’d been through so many transfer tutorials this week. Almost destroyed my laser printer feeding plastic paper through it. Your iron technique is what made the magic happen.

Nice video and congratulations on getting it to 1 million views.

Oh my, I have tried to transfer copies to wood using the "transfer tool" for wood burning & it ALWAYS burned the wood. I never thought to use an iron!! Wow now I can go back and do all the patterns I've already copied and cut out!! Thank you so much!!!!

Thank you for this video and information I have been wood burning and never thought that you could transfer a image thanks again and love from Scotland x

I know this was made two years ago but the advice is still good ! Thanks man :)

Oh wow. I've been doing these transfers with Mod Podge. I will try this. Thank you!

I think that it depends on what/how you're going to use the transfer. If you're going to burn, this would be better. If you want a transfer, aka photo, Modge Podge is better

Great job! Hope to see more woodburning projects. Keep up the good work😃👍

The best & easiest way to do it! Thanks for this! 👍

I've transferred this way - not using an iron but a special tip on my burner and one thing I can add to your tutorial here is that you NEED to make sure that you heat ALL of the wood (not just where the picture is. If you only heat part of the wood it will take the stain differently and you will end up with a blotchy finish. The heated wood doesn't take the stain as well and ends up lighter.

So very clever and a great tutorial Januk

Wow, that looks really cool, you did a great job!

Great job. Try using water pencils and you can shade it with a wet Q-tip. Works really well.

Beautiful job on the train!

Thank you for sharing this technique. Very helpful.

I think u did a good job for how much u have done it great work ty

Awesome video! Thanks a lot for the tip! I am not an artist by any mean so this is very helpful!

that turned out really good.

Wow that`s good! The best technology i`ve ever seen.

Great way to transfer. I hope you go back to doing woodburning. It's really fun. Want to check out my first tutorial? Thanks for the iron transfer tip.

I'll have to try this, thank you!

You can get an inexpensive wood burning kit with a flat round tip that works very well, and is even better than an iron for smaller transfers with a lot of detail (for instance, a logo).

Nice work! You say several times you don't know if it's good, but it looks pretty good to me. Thanks for the tips ;)

I think the image after ironing looked good enough, gave it an antique feel to it being as the lines were kinda broken up....makes me wonder if you could just put a finish over the ironed ink image without the ink smearing

That is so cool Inspired me to buy a burner and give it a go. Thanks!

awesome tutorial. very clever. awesome job. :)

Nice job here ~ while you peeled back the paper transfer I might suggest just a little longer with the hot iron only because you might move the transfer paper ~ nice touch to add color and a varnish over the box cover will do nicely

Good demo. As a note: there are actually tips for woodburning tools specially designed to do this. They look like a 1" disc and work very well at concentrating the heat. Really good demo though, including all the important points.

Thank you for video I was making some dreidels and wanted to print on the letters. you saved my day

that looks really neat. I think you wouldn't need to burn as the transfer looks nice enough

This is amazing. I covering paper in pencil lead on one side to make transfer paper. Lifesaver. On the real.

It's a laser print on regular paper before the iron transfer. Great video man, I needed to come back and watch this because it's been a long while and I forgot if it bad laser or inkjet. Peace

will this also work if the box is painted? thanks in advance! i tried various technics and am trying to figure out which one is the quickest, safest and accurate

You can also do the same thing using acetone and no iron. Prep the same way, then wet some cloth with acetone and rub. You'll see the image through the paper. Let it dry, or use a hair dryer. The paper will peel right off and you'll have the image.

Hey Mr B...what heat setting is the iron on? just curious. thanks Beau

Love it and the colored pencil idea Two Thumbs up!

is there a certain amount of time after you print the image that it needs to be ironed onto the wood?

very well done, i like it a lot.

Very lovely colours and pleasing eyes ~_~

Would a swing away heat press work better than an iron if someone has access to one or would that be overkill on heat and pressure?

TY for saying what sort of wood, paper, and iron you used. I tried this using some off the shelf stuff (wood) from wal-mart, regular paper, and an old steam iron with no steam. I pressed on max heat for about ten minutes. The image transferred, barely. Gonna grab some pieces of different wood, and test again. Curious if you have done this method with other types of wood?

I took a video of some of my students using this to put designs on a skateboard. kzread.info/dash/bejne/p2SjrZN8dbS4fZM.html

Whether it be a laser, or can and ink jet printers? Thanx.

Cool. Do I have this right? It is just a laser copy and the heat transfers it to wood?

Nice job

At first I didn't think that it made a difference, but now that I have tried both, I would say that a fresh one would work better.

Will this iron on transfer technique work on Veg tan Leather?

would white paint change the background color? I'd like to try a B&W picture but I'm thinking the wood would be its natural background

This is so cool, I want to do this

Make sure you are using a fresh photo copy and the wood is sanded smooth. It takes a couple of passes and the iron needs to be hot. I have 2 other videos showing this process. Also don't use an ink jet printer.

good job sir

good for carving as well ;)

Looks good to me too 🙌🙌🙌

So is this just regular paper with a regular photocopy?

I just realized that there are settings, at least in my Samsung Android Photos, that one can automatically change the image style from regular to vintage to sketch, etc. May be useful...

way to awesome!!!!

Excelente Muchas gracias

will useing a prestain treatment help?

Where do you buy your boxes ?

nicely done

I've given this a shot on some spare wood, didn't work, only thing I can figure is its not smooth enough, what grit did u use?

would it work if u print the image of a printer

What happens to the parts of the image that you don't burn over? Does the ink just fade away over time ?

Nice Idea

It works on metal?

Can you specify whether you can use a laser printer or inkjet? there are no laser jet printers. thanks.

Me encantò, lo harè!!

Hello, ¿Qué tinta utiliza para realizar la tranferencía, es especial o común?

cool, thanks

What's the heat setting on the Iron ?

your printer for this job - was it a laserjet or ink jet?

woow great job can i ask first of all i am new at this what other things i can Iron Transfer on it other than wood thank you

The toner ink responds to heat. I think inkjet liquid is just pigment if I'm not mistaken and won't respond much to heat, but it's worth a try.

which is the hottest setting? cotton?

Can you transfer to paper with this technique

The subjects covered in this wood working book “pepe amazing plan” (Google it) ranges from wood types to tool types as well as uses. A few other subjects range from the several types of wood along with their distinct levels of difficulty with regards to handling them. In case you are still a novice in woodworking, then you will find this book very beneficial.

what heat setting did you have your iron on and also did the iron have water in it?

Hollie Iserino For this method it should be copy paper with laser printer ink. You really should use graphite transfer to transfer an image for burning. Doing this method can ruin burner tips and the ink releases toxins into the air while you are burning over it.

Can you do this with printer ink?!

Where to buy paper?

It does not matter the heat? If it is medium, low or at its maximum?

So this is done with ink not laser?

So that is just basic paper and a laser printer.... that was neat even before the wood burning.

I tried this it didn’t work did you use regular printing paper ?

Yes, The transfer is not 100% perfect, but it is enough to help guide you later with the wood burner.

Help Please. I used a laser jet printer to print my image then put my iron on high. All I got was the smell of burnt paper and black marks on the page. I even turned the iron down but nothing transferred. What am I doing wrong?

Candice Emery You really shouldn't use this method if you are going to burn over the lines. Transferring with graphite paper is better. The method in the video releases toxins in the air as you burn over the ink lines...it also can ruin your burner tips.

Actually for your wood burner you can get a specific tool that does the same thing and it inhanses it more so you dont have to go over it again

Look at my finished boxes videos to see what students have done to make the box look different.
