My daughter and I are going to make a wooded bingo ball holder (the thing that has holes for the balls and all of the numbers on it).
I haven't decide whether to paint or stain this yet, but what are some option to add the letter and numbers that look good?

Thanks,
Rob

Thanks for all the help guys.

* With regards to the video, did you use lacquer thinner or acetone to make the transfer. The video (and comments) seems to indicate mixed success with acetone.

* Order of operations: So using this method, did you perform the final sanding, stain/paint and then transfer the letters, and then spray on a topcoat? Did anyone try brushing on a topcoat over the transfer, and was there any adverse effects?


* Dave, I have tried using my Dremel with an engraving attachment, but the letters/numbers were not crisp and as straight as I would like as I was essentially free-handing the letters.

I will explore both of these options to see what works best. Always good to learn something new. Thank you!
