I use this to cut the Wilsonart laminate on the edges of the plywood in a Sprinter that I have fitted to a RV. I've overdone it by laminating both sides of many panels. After about 6 large sheets, it shows signs of wear. I've learned to spray it with WD40 before and after each job because it weakens the contact adhesive I used on the laminate. If the bearing stops turning, you are burning the wood.
