I am truly so thrilled to see you doing project videos again! You truly are an inspiration! Many blessings to you!
Thanks! I would never have thought of using a wire brush to to sand a lathe turning. Tried it with excellent results. Learn something new every day.
I love how you are having to move things to the side and throw something up on a stool to find a new work area. I can relate to that so well hahaha. Great video, thanks for the demo :). Subscribed!
That’s super. I’ve been looking for this technique and you made it simple to understand. I like your tray too. It looks like something I’d like to try. Thanks for your videos. They are very well done and helpful. Now that I have a lathe again I’ll be going back to watch the videos on your channel.
Amazing, I have been looking for a way to put my logo on my work that didn't cost more than my project. It would even be a great way to put a Beads Of Courage design on the side of a box. You really have a winner with this video. Christian Jensen, Woodturning - My Way
I have been using this technique to apply my name, type of wood and date to bottom of bowls as a logo as well. Sometimes I burn the font with calligraphy tips. Love your video.
I picked up a lathe along with an assortment of other equipment/hand tools and fine wood from a man who unfortunately was no longer to use them due to his health. He practically gave a UHaul trailer load of stuff to me. I have been dying to get my hands on that lathe (which has never been used but probably 10+ years old). The skills and talent you guys have amazes me.
Been watching all of your videos. Great job. Love the way you do your video's it shows you are pretty down to earth. Just watched your video with you transferring ink jet lable to your work. I always use the easy wood turning for the grain compulations. Any way keep up the good work I'm sure you are giving other turners especially new turners. Thanks Tim Kelly:
Great procedure, it clearly works well. Thanks James
I have heard alot of people suggest freezer paper, but i was never able to get it to feed through my printer. Frustrated with that method i tried poly sheet protectors and it worked fabulous. Avery heavy duty have been the best in my opinion. i just cut off left and right side making it the same size as 8.5x11 and the bottom and now you have 2 "plastic" papers to print on. so much fun !
Thanks Tim. Great idea for “sighing” the bottom.
Hi Tim. A heart attack and 4 bypasses has had me on the sidelines for a while now. I ve had a lot of free time so Ive been watching video on woodworking. I own Wood Inspirations and Design LLC so I always try to learn something new whenever I can. I love this video. Its clean and fresh and shows us a great technique. Im using the idea to put my company logo on my bottoms. I love your attitude and the easy fun way you teach. Thank you so much for your time.
Thanks tim for putting up another great video. I really enjoy your channel.
This is coolest thing on KZread I ve already order the paper from the Big river and shared it with my daughter, the possibilities are end less Thank you
Thanks for the tip. I tried transferring using a clear label, but this is way better and I never would have thunk it up myself.
Just Tried it, Works Great, Thanks Tim!
Wow! That’s cool! Inexpensive and great detail
You just gave me inspiration for new welcome baby wood craft I’m doing exactly what I was looking for
I came here for the inkjet transfer but got hooked into woodturning XD
You can do the same thing using freezer paper, which is even cheaper than label paper. Just cut it to size and print on the shiny side. My results don't show any noticeable difference between the label and freezer papers. Please keep the great videos coming!

Good luck! Be sure to cut the freezer paper to printer paper size and be careful not to slide or smudge the print when you apply it to the wood.

Sir..... You are outstanding. Not to mention HILARIOUS. Great video! Excellent work
I love it! It looks great! Nice, crisp color. 💕😁💕
Genius! I am so using that method.
Beautiful equipment and work. Watching this lathe spin is strangely relaxing and hypnotic. I hope there are no subliminal messages in there.
Best video yet of how to do this. Thank you for posting😀 🇬🇧
Glad I found you, I used to get the Create channel & watched a lot. Glad I can watch here
Nice process, thanks for sharing.
Nicely done!
Nice video, thanks for posting.
Hi Tim, Just found your channel . Awesome piece, can't wait to watch more. Carl M in PA
Thanks! Really good video and how to transfer inkjet image.
Well I’m going to have try that very cool 😎 Tim
Great Idea Tim. I've watched a number of similar videos and was almost of the opinion that inkjet transfers are a waste of time. Even others that used shipping label sheets didn't seem to work well. But yours look very nice.

I played with it some more and I am really liking the results. As long as you are not looking for a picture perfect transfer it works great. I did try more pressure with my fingers and more color did go into the wood and made a brighter image.
Thanks so much for sharing this video. This method should work for me. You explained everything very well.
Love these videos, keep it up
What a wonderful tutorial is this ! Really you are amazing Sir . I already subscribed. I wish if I have a work shop like this. Thank you
Tim, after you spray on the sealant and it dries can you then apply polyurethane to get a better finish?
Thanks for a great idea! I don't have a wood lathe, but this method of transferring an image may solve a big problem for the wife and me. We've been trying to figure out a cheap, easy and quality way to transfer our photos to ceramic tiles for coasters. The expenses must be low to sell at a profit. The ink probably won't work on ceramic, but there's a primer, brush or spray, called B-I-N that will. We're going try it TODAY, printing on label backing as you suggest, and transferring to B-I-N treated tiles. Wish us luck! The next craft fair is only 2 weeks away!

No luck. The heavy layer of ink in a high quality photo makes a mess. Oh well...
Great Idea Tim...I am definitely going to try it , I was working on an emblem , for my shop , to carve on my CNC , not working out that well to small ...this will do better . I bought one of those sander you have , just a couple of months ago , did not last , started to smoke and heat up thought it would start a fire , not good in a woodshop , only used 15 - 20 minutes at a time got about 3 + hours out of it .....just want you to know Be Careful ! I like the angle but... end up getting 90 degree Ryobi 18 volt
Very nice job my friend
i used tracing paper and then did a bunch of design prints on wooden disc many years ago ,,,i am gonna have to try the parchment on this
Great idea for printing and using my printer too
Pretty cool video; awesome temperament.
Secret hint for laser printers: those printouts are easily transferable with acetone. Not sure about coloured ones but it works fine with black printouts.
Abe's screensaver won me over. Anyone else?
Hi Tim That's a lot better than wetting the paper a neat idea thanks take care Y.N.W.A. Paul
Nice hack, good video. Thanks
That is slick!
liked your commentary sir. enjoyed it till the end.
How long should you let the ink dry after transferring to wood, before spraying on a coating?
I can't believe how great this works I was throwing away the sticker backs, not any more thanks to you.
sir the video was amazing thank yoy sir may i know which Spray did use at the end on the wood ?
This method worked perfectly ! From the bottom of my hearth , thank you sir
Hey thanks. I wonder if this could work with greaseproof paper.
nice job. thks a bunch
great video, thanks, but have a question, once your spray the print down an let it dry can one go over the piece with paint on coating or will that smug the picture
Amazingly simple when you know how! Great video Tim & team. xXx
The camera and light holders are great - are they a specific brand? great work btw...:D
Amigo não entendo o que você fala,mas seu trabalho é excelente.
This is awesome bro
I've got the same printer and my photo came out light but when I rubbed it on it was not as dark as yours. What setting did you print it on?
I came here for printing on wood, and flipped out when i saw that Abe guy on your other screen in your office! In Odd I trust! also good video great idea
Hi Tim... Thanks for sharing.. Can I have the name for the protection spray and the paper brand please.. so I can try it out.. 😊

I knew this was a good show, but look at all those Emmy awards next to your printer!
Neat idea! My printer offers choices as to what type of paper I am printing on. Did you select a certain type of paper choice before printing such as: photo paper, card stock, transfers, etc.?
good! i try today! :)
Great video ,love it :}
What is the sealer , the camera didn't focus in on it?
Hi great video. What paper setting did you use for your printer? I want to try to make a photo on wood today. I have a Canon ink jet printer can anyone else help me with this? Thanks
Good idea, cheers
Great video, thankyou
You can also use regular kitchen wax paper. I use it with good success. Just cut it to your printer paper size and you're set.
I think this is the technique my mum uses to print on fabric.

I have tried this on fabric, too difficult. much easier to direct print using freezer paper method with iron, and a sandwich
this is actually kinda neat. i was starting to think an inkjet transfer cant be made!
Good video
Por qué se muestra el proceso de fabricación del plato? El tutorial no era sobre transferencia de imágenes en madera?
P S I`ve had some problems sometimes That looks good, think i`ll try it
Can you do it on a photocopier as well
on your cuts on the backup is the bowl tool the best ?
you can print it out on wax paper also. Cheaper. Tape the top of the wax paper cut to fit the computer paper to the top and put in printer.
How do you stop the ink from bleeding into the wood? ive tried 3 now and the ink bleed at the edges across the wood

If you use MS Publisher, you can scale the size by dragging the corners of the image frames. The limiting factor will be how much the ink will spread after the application to the wood and the type of wood you use. Hardwoods will hold the ink better with minimal spread. Some woods may have to be wiped down with alcohol and dried before applying the ink. Best to test it first with a piece of scrap. Let the ink dry for a day before applying the finish such as CA or some of the friction finishes.
I thought you were going to use wood glue..... pretty cool transfer!!
Could I do this but with just words, then paint the words after doing the transfer?
My concern is what you have done to the inside of your printer with the ink you have left behind. I use inkjet decal sheets. Not the best because the fixative kind of wipes out the yellow but at least my inkjet printer isn't getting a bunch of residue buildup inside. Best to stay with laser decals. Go to Office Depot or Staples and print them if you don't have your own laser printer.
I like you Oddworld Abe's Odyssey background.
What sort of paper did you print on to stop the ink drying?
That's neat. I wonder what sealing it with clear resin will do to the ink. hmmmm. :) Thanks for sharing this tip. - Heidi

Sprayed finishes don't seem to affect it. Now a poured resin might start dissolving the ink as it dries. If you try it let me know how it works out.

I will. Maybe if I let it sit for a couple weeks or so like I usually do with my artwork before adding the resin coat. I will try it both ways. :P Immediately and after a couple weeks or so.
