How difficult is it to laminate the hx200 film on a glass plate? and what safelight wavelength do you use during the recording?
I want to try the Bayfol hx200 from Geola (10x10cm film sheets), single-beam tranmission/reflection holograms using 50mw 532nm laser.
Tks

Here’s a link to what BobH uses with pricing😳! Doesn’t include air/gas supply.

Good finding, thanks, I hope work well in small areas.
Maybe a good technique to include in a photopolymer manual.

I will now😊. Thanks. 1/8th the price of the Terra Universal unit and works with canned compressed air vs. dedicated tank or compressor. My main concern would be the tendency of canned air to sometimes “spit”...

Has anyone tried this alternative: [url]https://www.edmundoptics.fr/f/anti-static-canned-air-ionizer/12948/[/url] ?

The one I use does not have an LED light on the nose.

First, I do it in a dedicaterd area that's kept clean. I use an anti-static airgun (pictured below) to blow the dust off the glass plate first. That keeps dust from being attracted to the surface. Then I use a small laminator I got and modified 20+ years ago to put the film down. Finally, I trim with a razor blade to prevent the edges from lifting while handling the plate. No bubbles.

Tank of nitrogen.

Great tip Bob re ionizing air gun. What’s your air/gas source?
