Iron Transfer Patterns for Pyrography

[@SabotPottery]

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.

[@enriquemcgrath6600]

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

[@BipolarBowler]

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.

[@vanessamcdowall2564]

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

[@mckracken8650]

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

[@HardyOkeyyy-yr3xd]

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

[@Seliduck11]

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!!!!

[@ArcticFlies56]

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

[@selmayazici5327]

Ütülemeden önce kağıdı mı ?ahşabımı ıslatmayı öneriyorsunuz

[@Babyjohn8170]

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

[@krisztinab.4958]

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

[@kikaweber]

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

[@guyh.4553]

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

[@justmeandmypreferences]

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.

[@Jenniferj2222]

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

[@prometheus4916]

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

[@SharedVision333]

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

[@selmayazici5327]

Yazıcıdan mürekkep baskılı olunca bu işlem işe yaramıyor mu😢

[@SuperWoodburningTutorials]

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.

[@DenisAnstavropolremont]

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

[@TheWoodburningWarrior]

I'll have to try this, thank you!

[@donhedger3297]

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

[@Wishbringer7]

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.

[@morbanjo2503]

+Wayfinder Wishbringer Hey! What are you doing here man? I guess great minds search alike!

[@Wishbringer7]

+morbanjo Hiya! I got started on KZbin at 7:30 last night watching woodworking videos... and finally managed to break away about 1:30 am. :D

[@t0mk0]

[@parkerglobe]

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

[@janetcozens4623]

So very clever and a great tutorial Januk

[@edwardpena5272]

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?

[@TheMrByrom]

I took a video of some of my students using this to put designs on a skateboard. kzbin.info/www/bejne/q2HSfGR5eraFg5I

[@TheSowerWentOut]

Thank you for sharing this technique. Very helpful.

[@anac7096]

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 ;)

[@gayleharrelson579]

that turned out really good.

[@Sharonparsley]

Beautiful job on the train!

[@TechSupport100]

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).

[@leopardberry694]

Does the photocopy have to be fresh or would it help or makes no difference? Thanks and awesome idea.

[@selmayazici5327]

Bu sorulara hiç yanıt verilmemiş çok üzücü 😢

[@tryforceofcurage]

this is soo cool im jst now getting into this sorta stuff and keep scratching my head on how to transfer images on there....thank you so much

[@DrawingWithFire]

tryforceofcurage The best way to transfer an image to wood is graphite transfer paper.

[@tshwanelotshenyego2390]

He's just using an ordinary A4 PAPER right?

[@deadbambi]

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

[@allyshaw3461]

What a wonderful idea. Thanks for sharing this.

[@TheOnlyRevanTheGreat]

Thank you SO much! Very helpful.

[@dascomp51]

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.

[@Wishbringer7]

Awesome David. I am definitely going to try that today. : )

[@dibasray2017]

David Summers please Porto picturr

[@selmayazici5327]

Ama o sadece transfer için iyi ahşap yakma için de uygun mu

[@beaustjohn2342]

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

[@ApehangerUK]

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

[@onlysahar84]

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

[@selmayazici5327]

Pamuklu kumaş üzerinde etkili olur

[@EDH-kp6xi]

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

[@matthewsimmons6831]

awesome tutorial. very clever. awesome job. :)

[@lorenzoalmanza3397]

Thanks for sharing. Good job

[@TheMrByrom]

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.

[@mileenawins6593]

Nice job

[@FlutePerspective]

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

[@RainDropps]

Love it and the colored pencil idea Two Thumbs up!

[@titmusspaultpaul5]

very well done, i like it a lot.

[@TobiasRedepenning]

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

[@nuruljamil]

good job sir

[@shiftorion]

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

[@Williamsmith42]

Very lovely colours and pleasing eyes ~_~

[@KurtCobainNevermind]

So is this just regular paper with a regular photocopy?

[@thed.i.yreader1841]

Looks good to me too 🙌🙌🙌

[@gaurithami7966]

nicely done

[@metroplexchl]

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

[@douglaswilliams184]

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

[@tulipakiwi8722]

he said just the heat.

[@guyh.4553]

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...

[@azenkwed]

good for carving as well ;)

[@Shay45]

This is so cool, I want to do this

[@Kate-dt9gu]

Do you need just heat from the iron or do you need steam from the iron? AKA do I need to add water to my iron to make this work?

[@OrelCraft]

Just the heat :)

[@MarilinMamolite]

Excelente Muchas gracias

[@gamevibehostshowasertretin8274]

Can you transfer to paper with this technique

[@tahiramatullah3573]

Is it also possible on leather.

[@emily8878]

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?

[@tommydeemer4660]

way to awesome!!!!

[@TheMrByrom]

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

[@rajwinderosahan]

Nice Idea

[@AddLoveTM126]

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

[@Echo-gd1wt]

what setting is the iron on

[@andietriangle]

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

[@samanthabmr1331]

Can you do this with printer ink?!

[@Artgamer270TM]

would it work if u print the image of a printer

[@marcelaperez3386]

Me encantò, lo harè!!

[@sharkerio]

Can this work with ink jet prints?

[@michel3265]

I've read Laserjet prints only because of the heat

[@Robert-zx2df]

Where do you buy your boxes ?

[@michel3265]

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

[@TheMrByrom]

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

[@susanjoynersnodgrass9766]

What temperature did you use for your iron?

[@Kman.]

AS HOT AS IT WILL GET!

[@shadowman7408]

DO you HAVE to wood burn it after?

[@stoneblue1795]

Yes, or the earth will spin on it's axis.

[@guyh.4553]

@@stoneblue1795 😂🤣😂🤣😂

[@rhaven50]

cool, thanks

[@chuckbuseman9127]

Is that a special paper? Or just normal printer paper?

[@TheMrByrom]

normal

[@arkabose89]

which is the hottest setting? cotton?

[@midnightdew]

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

[@burimarjetazekaj6602]

Ariana Zburlea

[@spoderman15]

Burim Arjeta Zekaj

[@jazmine6149]

can you copy your photos from an 'Inkjet' printer and transfer onto wood?

[@TheMrByrom]

Dawna Fisher Steve shows you how in wood working for mere mortals

[@michel3265]

have you tried it yet? I think only laser inkjet printers. something about the heat

[@emily8878]

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.

[@arikarai9821]

can we use ply board instead of wood..???

[@DrawingWithFire]

Arika rai you can use wood veneered plywood, but not the regular plywood. If you burn on the regular plywood you are also burning over glue. This ruins burning tips and releases toxic fumes. You also should never burn on MDF for the same reasons.

[@josequezada8138]

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

[@99F]

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

[@IanKWatts]

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

[@510sethml]

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?

[@ก็มาดิครับ-ฎ6ฎ]

Where to buy paper?

[@karlabraunesreither7355]

will useing a prestain treatment help?

[@snickerzzzb.m9276]

What type of paper is it?

[@DTyrrell007]

so it works with normal paper?

[@890slay]

+David Tyrrell It does.

[@midnightdew]

Well, I am looking for this too. But I do the drawing with Indian ink (pigment) on normal paper and I want to transfer that to wood. Would it work, I wonder?...

[@DrawingWithFire]

Ariana Zburlea Print out a copy of your art, transfer to the wood using graphite paper, then burn away. This method in the video releases toxic fumes into the air while you are burning and can ruin your burner tips.

[@dogbite11100]

Enough with the toxic fumes bullshit.

[@logansmith9660]

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.

[@tashalapaige719]

What paper and cloth can I use??? I got a child's shelf and trying to put spongebob on it but how do I transfer it

[@serigraph73]

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

[@noor0677]

where did you get to paper from to do that. can you please leave me a message to let me know thank you.

[@ChrisInAVan]

Just regular copier paper.

[@noor0677]

So how are u able to tranfer with a iron

[@dandylionphotography]

noor0677 the heat transfers the laser printed image onto the wood. has to be a laser print, inkjet will not work

[@guyh.4553]

What about inexpensive photo paper? Would that work?

[@hollieiserino2464]

hi i had tryed to do what was shown in the video and the picture didnt work on the wood i was useing. what kind of paper do you need the copy to be on ? could you please write back soon thanks alot.

[@DrawingWithFire]

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.

[@benantebi8111]

It works on metal?

[@garrybrpwine3073]

What's the heat setting on the Iron ?

[@njoynow.entertainment]

So this is done with ink not laser?

[@carminegigliotti6487]

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
