Thx for the video. Why the angle and not straight from the top when cutting?
@MartinGonzalvez
@MartinGonzalvez 8 күн бұрын
Good question. If you cut straight from the top, you’re at greater risk of the blade curving away from the ruler edge and having a non-straight cut. If you angle your blade slightly toward the ruler edge, it tends to stay aligned with the ruler edge and reduces crooked cuts. :)

A note regarding setup of the Maker 3 to load and cut the board. You will have to move the star rollers to the side to load the board into the Maker 3. I marked the original position of the star rollers on a 13 inch wide piece of paper (same width as mat) to be able to return them to their original locations.

Thank you so much, that is exactly what i was looking for! I already learned basically all of this just for searching how do it, each step by step (not necessarily involving cards/tcg). But knowing someone take their time to do a complete video about doing DIY cards, is really awesome. Im thinking in doing a video just like that for the brazilians here in brazil. I love cards, board games and video games in general, and love to do things by myself. Im also planning to do like details with holographic and shiny look papers, and using a cutting plotter to cut the detail and then laminate on it.

No. Modern thermal laminating pouches have a coating of heat activated glue inside. It sticks the laminate to the paper inside.

Can you get the same outcome with tape all on the back or does there need to be a strip on the front side? Our board came with the design already printed on and we can’t cover it.
@MartinGonzalvez
@MartinGonzalvez 2 ай бұрын
No, unfortunately if you put all your tape on the back then your board will only be able to fold in one direction (toward the back). Which will work if it’s a bifold board. But not if it’s a quadfold board.

@@raragrace5040 I think I know the source of confusion. I use thermal, laminating pouches, which have a thin layer of adhesive on the inside. This adhesive is activated by heat and pressure. The adhesive sticks directly to the paper or card stock being laminated. Thus with thermal, laminating pouches,there is no need to seal the edges. Because the laminate itself sticks to the surface of the item being laminated.
