Oh, forgot to add the last few bits to the answer: How to run through 
the laminator. I simply put the transfer sheet face down on top of the 
board or the brass and run it through. You do run the risk of the 
thing going up into the gears if it doesn't attach properly. To 
prevent this, buy some laser address labels and use that to tape down 
the leading edge (scotch tape will melt!). You don't need much, so one 
sheet of labels will go a long way. If you don't want to buy a whole 
package, most office supply stores will sell them by the sheet in the 
copy center, though they'll probably wonder why you don't want 
anything actually /printed/ on them.

I don't know much about how much thickness the laminators will take. 
Since they're really only designed for [carrier pouch - laminate - 
paper - laminate - carrier pouch], even .032" boards are probably 
pushing the boundaries of what they'll do. The GBC laminators at 
Staples are the only ones I've seen mentioned often, I've also seen a 
Xerox one that has a widely adjustable temperature gauge that looks 
pretty heavy duty. I tried a Duck Tape brand one from wal-mart ages 
ago and it didn't get anywhere /near/ hot enough to make the transfer, 
which is why I never tried another commercial laminator until I saw 
pulsar.gs suggesting to use the GBC ones.
