Subject: RE: Laminator

 I've just bought a fellowes Venus 125 laminator, I've tried to use it without modding it but I think the temperature does not get over 130 C (265 F) so it does not work for TT out of the box, it can be fed with 1/16" boards easily, so I'll try to fix that in the next days, I'll comment my results later.

best regards

Is there a preferred laminator for PCB making?

I have been at this for a few weeks and have tried many of the suggested
media and a few of my own. So far the best results have been with
magazine paper after I figured out what people meant by the term.
Hadn't a clue where one could purchase it.

PnP was a big disappointment and about the worst results.

PO label backing was the second best.

I suspect most of the problems are with uniform heat and pressure so the
laminator seems like a good idea.

As a point of interest, Yahoo seems to have really barfed up the Groups
lately and their stock has crashed in my humble opinion.
