Default Transfer images to wood

Has anyone tried anything like this before?
Cubbie I do this all the time. I am also a pyrographer(woodburner). When I want to transfer images or patterns to wood, I go to OfficeMax and copy the image I want on a copier that uses toner. It will not transfer with inkjet ink. I have a small heat transfer tool with a round disk on the end and turn the image with the printing facing the wood and pressing tool on the paper in circles making sure I have transfered the whole design. For real large images you can use an iron. The tool is available at Woodcraft or any craft store that sells woodburning supplies.
