Homebrew PCBs

This was the problem I had with many of the irons I tried. I finally 
found one at K-Mart 'White Westinghouse Adjustable Steam Iron', the 
cheapest model they had at about $8. It has a very flat shoe, with 
small steam holes. I used this iron with press'n'peel for a long time 
(still had dropouts, but not /nearly/ as much). We no longer have 
K-Mart here (Sears Essentials took it over), so I don't know if they 
still carry this one. You also have to make sure the surface you're 
ironing on is very flat as well, I used to use a thick sheet of brass 
on top of as flat a board as I could find. However, ever since I 
started using a laminator, I'd never go back to the iron. The Creative 
9" laminator is only $50 at Staples, compared to GBC's other 9" 
laminator at $129, this is a steal. It was on sale for $40 last week, 
will likely go on sale again in a month or so.
