this is a really good trick that i was told for plastic laminate work.. i was taught to use wooden sticks or news paper when laying the laminate down,, but that was for kitchen counters 25 to 30" wide and long well i had a 48 x96" bench top to du,, and didnt have that long of sticks and was told by a old freind that i could use plastic or metal venatian blinds.. well i wasnt sure but he convinced me it would work ok .. and i am here to ta tell ya it worked great.. had two sets of 30" slats and a helper to pull and set the laminate down they didnt stick alick and held up great the built in hump was just right for the two surface to stay apart and held the laminate till i had postined it where i wanted it.. so the next time you look at a old set of blinds grab then if yu do laminate work at all... i looked for the thread that had tips and tricks but couldnt find it so you can put this in ther eif you want moderators ,,head cheeesz's
