[PrintOwners] laminator mounter?

[Andy Flamm]

We've been using a ProSeal pouch laminator for years and that seems like a
good solution unless your volume justifies the higher cost (but lower supply
costs) of a roll laminator. We bought ours pretty cheap as part of some
special offer. Hopefully you could find a 26" model (or whatever they come
in) for under $1000. We use heat-activated foam board for mounting; it works
great, and the boards are available locally so we avoid shipping costs. We
buy laminating pouches and pouchboards from USI (be sure you get dealer
pricing). They are expensive, but there's little waste and just about anyone
can do it. We charge $3 per sq' for laminating, $4 for mounting and $5 for
both. Good luck.
