Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] "Best" laminator to use

2007-01-15 by Gary Hoyles

Just thought id mention that the one from maplin does not need modifying, its works well with about 6 passes. I had a look at trying to make it feed slower, but the way the gears are, its not possible to simply swap them around. But anyway, it works as it is when switched to the hotter setting.

Unfortunately, the laminators that have been mentioned as being 
easily modifiable are only available in 120V versions, ie are USA- 
specific.

It would be helpful to have some models mentioned that are available 
outside that country.

We've had the 29.99UKP one from Maplin mentioned, any more? I'm 
thinking ease of modifying the drive cogs for PCBs as well as a 
throat that's shallow enough to be able to feed and retrieve smaller 
boards.
