I won't be there I'm afraid, but I'm sure Postman Pat could deliver before then.
Laser transparency sheets are quite thick, about the same as 150g/m2 paper, so I don't think they'd need laminating. I have no idea how stable the toners would be in sunlight though, but given that they get cooked onto the sheets in the machine's "fuser" unit maybe they wouldn't be too bad.
Believe it or not work were - literally - throwing out the machine, which cost =A38k when new. They said I could have it if I could carry it, which was quite a challenge as it probably weighs as much as I do. So after half an hour of several of the country's top engineering brains (not!) pondering how to get it into the back of a Landcruiser, with one retiring injured, we finally figured out how to remove the base and get it in through the tailgate.
Getting it out all on my ownsome when I got home was "interesting", but at least I had gravity on my side. Then I had to get it back on its base. Of course I hadn't marked it beforehand, and there are four ways of fitting a squarish object onto a squarish base - so you can guess how many attempts it took!
So, have any artists out there got any ideas for a design?
