I've found a method of transferring images to wood that works well for me. I cover the back of the page I want to transfer with pencil wherever a line will be. Pretty much scribble on the whole page to get a layer of carbon. Then lay the page down on the wood and trace over the image. The carbon on the back will transfer to the wood. I use this for wood burning and scroll saw projects and once transferred you don't have to worry about the page moving.

I like that idea. Do you think this'll work with charcoal? I'm not particularly fussed with mess on the wood because I make templates which I will then route out with trim/pattern router bits.

Yeah, charcoal would probably work better. No need to cover the whole page, just the parts you're going to trace. This would help to reduce any other unwanted transfer.

I'm going to give this a try the next time. Thanks for the tip.
