One recommendation. You could actually have that bottom tab much thinner and come to the same point as the ones above it, which would also cost less in manufacturing. End result would be that you have the top edge to lay on the top and the rest of the barbs penetrate the paper which would allow you to push it into the paper at a consistent angle (straight into the paper), separating into stack much easier.
For easier cleanup, fold a sheet of 11 x 17 20# paper in half long-ways and push the fold up against the jogger, with half the sheet going up the jog plate and half lying on the bottom tray. Put your job to be padded on top of the paper. Now put another folded sheet on top of your job, with half going up the jog plate before adding the clamp bar. Clamp everything down, then spin the padder around. Remove the jog plate, and then fold the bottom paper down, creating a drip catcher. (The top sheet should help keep the clamp plate clean.)
how do you avoid the chipboard from getting cut into the sheet right underneath? you can see this happening at the 6:25' mark, there's a bunch of chipboard on the top of the next pad where the glue is.
Using a padding knife to separate the stacks is key! www.cfsbinds.com/3-pad-knife-1-ea.html?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw2dG1BhB4EiwA998cqOyaC2niWbmP98LWHVnPtG_NT6xmzOSeN_vQrX6PRJ5tpzLOOwSVPBoCtnQQAvD_BwE
would this method work on 3-part ncr paper notepads - they will be perforated so sheets can be torn out of book - don't need fan a-part ( I'm new to this stuff - want to make my own forms and books for our business)

Yes this will work on NCR, and you can even purchase pre-perforated NCR to print on prior to padding/fusing.
