Expensive but see http://www.film-source.net/12_inch_pouch_foam_laminator_2244_prd1.html

A quick goggle for "Bigmouth and laminator" turned up above site $189.00 free shipping.

Haven't tried for PCB's but will laminate up to 1/4" thick.

Ive gotten a responce from Frank of Pulsar, He states that the 1/16
board may need a little persuasion, but will pass through. He
suggests we switch to the 1/32 board. I did in fact use the laminator
w/a 1/32 double sided board and it worked but it warped and is very
flexible. I dont think this will fair well w/ smd or my pc mount
xfer. I told Frank about this but he seems to think it should be fine
and that the warped board can be manually straightened.

I really want to get this sorted for the 1/16 because the results are
much much better than the clothes iron tech. I still cant wrap my
brain around the fact that the h210 passes the 1/16 easily when the
heat is turned down.

I found a link that mods the older h200 to pass the media slower, but
Frank says that is is not needed for the new h210 and that the h210
is a much better machine.

I havnt had time to fiddle w/this, but on the WE I plan on doing alot
of testing. Ill post then.
