How well does it round the plastic on laminated cards?

It cuts about a 99% clean corner, maybe not good enough for NASA, but certainly not a problem if you run your finger along it. I use it to round-off 10mil laminated items, and it has performed perfectly.

It hasn't caused me any problems with card stock. I've done four or five greeting cards, running the stock through twice to print both sides and haven't had a failure yet. I can see where it might since it goes through a pretty tight turn inside the machine. I haven't tried anything glossy or otherwise slippery.

Yes, it's pretty good for cards. I've used it a few times for that. This 60lb weight is also sturdier than some "delicate" cards found in a stationery or grocery store.

it's not rubbery, but I'm not sure this will work. I like it, but I'm using it for cards and die cuts.

Hey Susan, that's a great question. Unfortunately I have to say no. You would have to bend the credit card to make it fit. I don't think that would go very well with most plastic cards. Hope this helps!

Hi, Doris. I used this for business cards and it worked great. If you're careful you can actually run about three through at the same time spacing them out on the machine.

It easily punches through cardboard, I'm not sure if it would tear lighter weight paper. It is a heavy tool and a little clumsy to use on cardboard. It is better for metals, I use it on coins and metal stampings for jewelry making. I love this tool!

Don't know...haven't done it. I have laminated a printed card made out of folder stock. I would think it would handle a DL card.

I used it to laminate my Medicare card. I used two "sticky" sides from two separate sleeves and it worked well.

Instead of using tags with pre-punched holes I just use the needle from this tagging gun to poke a hole through the card stock and thread the plastic fastener. I've used it in this way to prepare hundreds of items for consignment. If you were to bother punching a hole, it would have to be significantly smaller than your average loose leaf paper hole since the plastic fasteners are quite thin. HTH.

It does loosen up a bit but I haven't found it to be too loose after using it a year. But I usually just insert 2-3 cards. If you put more in, it might stretch more.

Great for sending homemade cards, but not real thick. So guess my answer would have to be NO. Sorry. When I make cards, you can see some of the clip art/print through the sealed envelope. Bob

Have no idea but if you have ever had something laminated, this is what it will end up like. I have used it on my SS card, my insurance info, etc. and it ends up actually thinner than a credit card but still protected and you cut it to size so it will fit in your wallet or whatever.

the cards have a coating like a mylar (shiny silver) balloon. you have a layer of a clear polymer with the gold foil laminated to the plastic and then to the card. the gold will not scratch off.

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.
