....as yet again i was being a bit to prudent and recycling all my left over bits of pouches(AS YOU DO!!!) and laminating bits of card for boys to use as bookmarks....
thing is....as you may know....if you manage to send through the laminator a bit where the 'sticky side' is not lined up to what you are laminating.....that the plastic will actually glue itself to the roller...and drag the whole piece of laminate round with it!!!!
There you are...waiting patiently for the laminated piece to pop out the other side...and you realise its being wound around the roller...so why oh why is there not a REVERSE WINDER function!!!! (there is on my sewing machine...!!!)
Instead...i have to switch it off...wait till cooled down...take the darling apart...hook all the stuck on laminate of ther roller....then switch it on to 'burn off' the 'glue'...then hook out any remaining bits...then screw it back together again!
(i have done this 3 or 4 times with this laminator...you'd think i'd learn from experience...i think not!!!)
