Default Transferring text/pics to a bowl or pen


"Kevin" wrote in message
...
I THINK I saw something on this site quite sometime back about using a
laserjet printer
to transfer images/text from paper to a turning. The process was to
type or print what you
want on paper and then using an iron transfer the contents of the page
to the turning.
Now one would have to diddle with MS Word, Word Perfect or whatever
software is used to
have the text printed out in reverse so the transfer would be legible
on the turning. I wonder
about the transferring process and if it would work; using a warm
iron.
Thanks


Try getting some waterbased decal materal for the "inkjet" type printers,
scan your picture/words, print and apply just like the old model airplanes.
