Frankly, as an afterthought, I didn't want to in any way endorse
modifications which might cause "problems," so I didn't use the switch
nor do I plan to.  The oven method is an easy, quick and safe
workaround for anyone stuck with a cheap _thermal_ laminator that
wouldn't otherwise be useful for TT PCBs and is the _only_ method I
recommend.
