| Hey guys! I want to make my own graphics for my decks without using the paper method because it looks kinda sketchy. (And my last attempt went green) Any ideas? |

| I don't really think anyone is going to tell you how to make professional graphics.
Find it out yourself.
I use paper and it works very good for me. |

| Heat transfer can be done with heat transfer paper (available at any office supply store) and a normal iron! |

I'd like to add, I've never seen it done on a fingerboard, but I know people who have used this method to make their own tshirts and whatnot. I bet it'd work. |

| I think adhesive paper is the easiest.
Izilly did a tutorial on it.
But woodprint and heat transfer graphics are alot better, but more difficult. |

| You will have to do some testing of your own and find what works best for you and get the results you are after. But this is a other good way to transfer graphics to wood if done carefully.. CLICK ME! |

| Honestly wood prints and paper are super great, they look awesome and are relatively easy to do. Heat transfers are a lot harder than you'd think, I did some trials with it and t-shirt transfers are hard to get right and a pain to lacquer. I'd tell you how to do real wears but then I'd have to kill you. |
