One of the easiest ways to transfer small designs onto wood is by the use of heat transfer,to do this simply go to your copy shop and take a copy of the plan/image that you need to transfer,now reverse the pattern and with a domestic iron set on 'hot' stroke the back of the paper whilst placed onto the wood,the toner ink will be melted slightly and you will now have a copy transferred onto the wood from which to cut out the respective design.

Please note that fresh copies transfer better than old ones as the toner will have sunk deeper into the paper rather than onto the surface. :wiggle:
