No but that's an idea.   Actually I like it. 

By laminated do you mean the traditional method of heat adhering plastic 
to both sides of a sheet of paper with a lamination machine, or 
something more exotic? 

It occurs to me that the Craft Robo I use to make custom panel labeling 
(use avery weatherproof identification labels, print on color laser, 
then use the craft robo on it's lightest cut setting to cut the label 
into the correct shape including holes) could be put into service for 
this as well for things like cutting a hole in the paper to let a LCD 
live behind the lamination and also final trim (depending on weight of 
the laminate).

Has anyone done this successfully?  I would be interested in hearing 
about durability of this application and whether any type of laminate 
works better than another.
