I want to laminate something and then bind/fold it, will i be able to fold it after i've laminatied it with your product?

I have used these laminates quite extensively, and I do not believe that you will be able to fold the items after lamination. I do keep many items in binders and the laminates hold up well as far as punching holes. As I answered this question, I am folding one of my laminations and it does not crease well and rebounds to the open position when let go. Markum

Yes. I used strong wood glue and my own nails first, to bind it because the screws they supplied failed miserably. I used my own screws then as well, to make it good and sturdy. But honestly, any of the plastic fold-ups will probably be more sturdy.

No! At least, I was unable to accomplish folding it. In my case this was not a big deal as my intention was to keep the futon base in an open, "bed" position, but if you plan on folding up the futon, good luck...and let ME know how you did it

I can see only one roll so don't think you can laminate only one side. If it did only laminate the top the document would curl a lot.

Wyre, when youre putting the document into the laminating pouch be sure to push your document all the way to the very back so that it is aligned stably in the pouch. Once you do that DO NOT forget to load the paper the same way - Sealed end in first and you will have no problems! I know this information will be helpful.

No, the item goes in, then through the laminator and then you can cut it to your liking. Sometimes I put several things in one sheet but, you have to be rather careful.

Yes. You can either cut them prior to laminating or you can run it through the laminator and cut afterwards.

Yes. I have been laminating covers for a spiral-bound book, and putting a regular sheet of paper as the cover paired with a sheet of card stock behind it to stiffen it. I do this with 5-mil sheets and it turns out fine.

I have never tried to do this, but if you folded it lengthwise, you probably could. It would be tricky to do though and you would probably need help to compress and role at the same time.

The instructions expect you just to insert the laminating pouch. I think use of a carrier sheet is not advisable.

I didn't use it on laminates, but the blog I used as an instruction guide said it would be fine. The blog I used was called Monica wants it all.

yes, you would hang the stuff where you want it, and then probably fold them over after. that would be the easiest method. however, you probably hang while it's folded too, if that makes sense.

Start envelope folded end into laminator, be sure it is entered straight. If it is cocked, it will bind along the edge and may halt feeding if envelope is full width of machine. Feed rate is slow - let it run; it will work if the sheet is not cocked.

Yes, I was doing that yesterday with cheap 7mm laminate! The blade acts equally over the whole surface of the laminate, so the wider the piece (or if you cut at an angle), then the harder work it is to cut.

It is clear... so it is a 'do it yourself' laminate. You just measure (get close) then cut a top and bottom or 'fold' in half and your item is laminated.

Yes. All folds work great once it is set up. We had a lot of issues, and continue to have, with getting a new fold started. We save our scrap paper so that we can use that first. It has taken us quite awhile to get adapted to this machine and felt the instructions were not detailed enough. I did YouTube a lot to assist with issues. Once it starts working well, it is amazing but again, disappointed in the lack of information the company provides. Good luck!

If you have patience. You would have to detach some of the small pieces and then the ship would fold down flat, but you risk tearing the notches that the parts attach with if you are not careful. It can be done..just wasnt worth all the work to me.
