Newest project - wooden pictures
 
So I've taken up a new hobby, transferring pictures onto blocks of wood. its a pretty cool effect.

Here's the same one but in color. it didn't come out so good so I took a sander to it to make it look like an old faded photo.

Here is my most recent one.

That's pretty darn cool man! How do you do it if you don't mind me asking. Is it just a sticker type thing?

I use a gel medium to transfer the ink from a photo that has been printed on regular printer paper to the wood and then cover it with a clear coat.

Sweet stuff brother :tu Keep it up!!

Here is my latest creation. After I got the pic on the wood, I used a dremel tool to carve out the edges to make it look like unfinished wood work.

I just picked up some red oak and some poplar to try out. The red oak looks like it will be good to do a smaller photo on and then stain the edges like a frame.

Here's one I'm doing for my Mom.

You should make wooden ash trays and put an image in them.

That's a pretty good idea Shane.

Here is the latest piece that I have done. It is a picture of the Cain F Lancero.

Here's one I did for a buddy of mine to hang up in his garage.
http://i1135.photobucket.com/albums/...-08-52_373.jpg
Since its a racing plaque I tried to make the edges look like burn out marks. I think it turned out pretty cool

Fordman4ever 02-26-2012 10:27 AM

Re: Newest project - wooden pictures
 
Here's my latest one. I think I'm going to leave it unfinished. I like the way it looks.
