I was wondering if anyone has laminated a favorite deck in order to make it sturdier or so you wouldn't have to worry about using it when it was raining? I have found that I really like the feel of laminate and also just how sturdy it is and wondered if anyone has gone to this length to preserve a deck?

Laminating a deck would be easy, but cutting them out would be a chore--if you use one of the 42 inch dual roll laminators.

Hi Dolphingirl, Remember that laminating a deck will signigicantly add to the thickness of each card. This will make the deck much more difficult to shuffle. The time and cost of laminating and cutting may not be worth it. You might be better off just buying a second copy of the deck.
