Re: high-temp laminator

2010-05-26 by Ryan Fobel

It's not my printer that's making it so hot; I was actually me
cranking it up on purpose.  Although I was originally using the
laminator to do toner transfer for pcbs, the latest (and
unfortunately, the final) application was an attempt at adhering
Teflon film to my finished pcbs.  Unfortunately, Teflon has a very
high melting point (>265C), which is more than the plastic could take.

I may end up machining replacements for the melted plastic pieces out
of aluminum unless I can find something else suitable...
