I can get 6 mil with a bit of work and being really careful just 
using magazine paper.  I have no doubt it is possible with the 
specialty papers as claimed.  12 mil doesn't take any real thought 
any more; I use 8mil only if I'm in a tight layout --that takes a bit 
more care when producing the boards, but is most certainly doable.  
30 mil should be cake.

The laminator makes it (at least for me) much easier to get 
consistant results when doing toner transfer.  You can get a cheaper 
laminator if you are willing to do a bit more work.  The dynart one 
is nice in that you know that particular model works for this 
intended purpose; not all laminators work equally well.  If you want 
to try a cheaper route consult the laminator database and check the 
archives for others reviews.
