GBC Creative laminator - any success with 1/16 PCBs

2006-01-31 by lcdpublishing

Hi all,

I just went through the archives and found some folks using the GBC 
Creative model laminator.  About 2 years ago there were some talk 
about using it, but no mention if there is a way to get to accept 
thicker stock (1/32 works fine from what I have read so far).

Has anyone modified this to work with the thicker PCB material?

I did try to salvage a fuser from a laser printer, but I believe I 
messed something up pretty bad as it won't heat.  The condition it 
was in (used) when I got was questionable to begin with so I am not 
even sure it worked when I started with it.

Today, while at the local Target store, I see the GBC Creative 
laminator on sale for $24.95 - I will buy one if it will work with 
the 1/16" PCBs.

Thanks

Chris
