Image gymnastics

I want to create a bitmap (an Image of some sort in Java?) from a graphics
display in one Swing component and blit it to another Swing component to be
displayed.

Can anyone tell me how to best approach this?

Thanks in advance,
Mark

BufferedImage buffer;

void paint2image(JComponent c) {
Dimension d = c.getSize();
buffer = new BufferedImage(d.width, d.height,
BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
Graphics g = buffer.getGraphics();
c.paintComponent(g);
g.dispose();
}
