Homebrew PCBs

I'll throw in my bit of luck:
I bought a laminator on eBay for $15. At first I thought I got screwed
over but all I had to do was scrape the opening a little to allow a
board + paper to go through. It achieved good transfer from thick
catalog-paper after 4 passes. It would not be difficult to control the
temperature of this device. I think a few degrees hotter would work well.
