Would the laminator you mentioned be the GBC Creative "Blue"
*Part Number:* 1712730R


This is a very inexpensive machine, to say the least.
And you say that you did no modifications?
I generally use 1/16", 2 oz copper clad, two sided.
Will it work with material this thick?

Thanks for the information.
