@Knep115 Legs are from Ikea (3 pieces), the top is a 4' x 8' cutting mat laying on a 1/2" G1S plywood from Home Depot. I don't recall the type of plywood, but I did go high end to ensure no warp in the wood. Total cost of table was approx. $250. It works very well. Only thing is I'd like a larger table now for working with stuff coming off of my new HPL25500 60" printer!!
@ cooler5150... I don't laminate "all" of my prints, but when I do laminate... yes, this is the way I do them, and they do look professional! They have to, as I am a professional business!! When laminating by hand like this, you do get what is called "silvering" on the surface, but after 24 hours or so, it goes away and you are left with a beautiful looking job. One key thing to know is that when using the Big Squeegee to laminate, make sure you have a good, level working surface!
@jjgrato If you have to apply a strong force you need to find out why. Trying too hard is the most common mistake. It should push very easy. Don't try to force it. Notice how Tim rolls up the vinyl. This is very important. Rolling up the vinyl with the paper out complicates the application.
wow nice brother .. I LOVE your shop brother .. How do i apply at your business lol jk ... I hope i will get my Business looking like yours bro... that is a fancy place nice and clean .. wow you run a wonderful shop brother ..
