Hi Mike,
I did not use any shims; I simply did the "TIA Modifications" and
swapped the guide plates prior to reassembly of the laminator. Will
try out the "eraser method" to remove residual glue and paper fibers
from the PCB prior to etching. Haven't yet found it necessary to pass
the PCB thru the laminator more than once or twice.
Note, I posted the laminator recall notice in the files section.
