Chip carving pattern transfer tool

I appears to me that the heat base area is to small to transfer a sustained heat source to the material even after being plugged in for better than 25 minutes. Would like to know if anyone else has experienced the same results? It took me a few tries to get decent results with the pattern transfer tool.

The trick appears to let it heat up as recommended for minutes. Then run the tool slowly in multiple passes; very slowly. I am, however, unhappy with the way the laser printer toner soaks into the wood a little bit, requiring more aggressive sanding than is necessary with a light-pencil-applied pattern. I plan to try out the graphite paper and glue-on approaches next. You must be logged in to post a comment.

Even with years of experience under my belt, I probably spent more time drawing than I did carving. Drawing the letters required some artistic skill and a smooth hand. Each curve had to be reproduced one after another. I transfer high quality text and images to my wood projects. This may be as simple as instructions for the wooden puzzle to art work that complements a carved project. The only caution is that for a perfect, crisp transfer the wood needs to have a smooth surface like paper.

I do heat and press a bit more than when just transferring patterns. People ask where I get such unique rub-on transfers. I can create anything I want with my computer and the Pattern Transfer Tool. So think outside the box — or maybe even on the outside of your box! Only logged in customers who have purchased this product may leave a review.
