Hi all. I was asked by a friend of mine, when I showed her a timber box that I had made, could I put a design on the lid of it. The design that she was referring to was a celtic design as this lady is a leader of a scottish pipe band.
My answer was, I dont know, would have to think about this. So I guess I have a few questions here to put to all the experts in this forum.
* How could I put a design onto timber and then apply a finish over the top of it. Maybe I could try my hand at marquetry however I have never attempted this The shapes might be a bit fiddly. I once seen where you can somehow print out a photo or similar on an inkjet printer and transfer the image to timber. Any thoughts on this,..?
* The next question would be, are you allowed to put such a design on a box of your own, or is there some sort of copyright issued involved in this type of thing.
Regards, Paul
