Hi Mike,

Thanks for taking the time to help me out! I see from your response
that laminators probably need to be modified before they can be used.
I guess that answers my question about the material thicknesses.

It sounds like you are having good results with your iron and you've
certainly given me the confidence to have a go myself. I guess I was a
bit nervous about using an iron with the press n peel I bought as it's
a little expensive to waste. While I'm experimenting I guess I could
have a go with some ink jet paper as well, it's cheap to try after all.

Surface mount components are something I hadn't considered using. I
guess making pcbs creates many new possibilities.

Best wishes and many thanks,

Andy.
