Does anyone have one of these De-Rollers They are rather expensive for what they are but if they work! or suggestions, I know you can reverse roll on a cardboard tube but have some expensive prints that need flattening and don't want to risk damaging them.

We haven't used one but have been thinking about it.
They are much cheaper on Lion.

I sold one last year as were stopping wide format printing and like most I was really sceptical as to its claimed abilities.

It had been suggested to me that purchasing a length of 32mm plastic waste pipe and then sticking some cellophane onto it would work just as well. It didn't, but it worked a bit.

I was down at Lion picking some stuff up and they demonstrated the de-roller to me and it was unbelievably different. I have no idea why but I was doing runs of 20 x16 prints in 315gsm paper and the de-roller sorted it out. :roll:
