Homebrew PCBs

Just thought I would post my results using the GBC-Creative 
laminator - A4. This may be some benefit to the Australian readers
 
This is a cheap and cheerfull laminator I purchased for $65 Australia 
Dollars in Officeworks. It has no speed/temp control but will accept 
media up to 2mm in thickness.
 
Using the toner-transfer with magazine paper I have achieved 
acceptable results passing the paper/toner/PCB material through 6-8 
times.

Upon soaking and removing the paper the toner seems to bond well to 
the copper foil.

The laminator has metal exit guides that may prove some trouble 
catching the taped leading edge of the magazine paper as it goes 
though the laminator. However I found that if I folded the magazine 
paper in half and placed the PCM material along the fold of the paper 
so there were no paper edges on the leading side of the stack then it 
all seemed to work fine.

I am very impressed with the results as I had almost all but give up 
on the Toner transer method with the clothes iron.


I wonder if this violates the first line in there instruction 
manual. "Do not used of any other purpose that intended"??

Cheers,
David
