You need an old fashioned laminated
driver’s license or ID card, preferable with your picture
and name on it. This example works well with the older
Washington State ID and most similar laminated cards.
Scan the ID as is with your trusty flat-bed
scanner at a decent resolution. You’ll need to scan both
sides of the ID. Open the files with Photoshop or your
favorite image editor.
Change the birth date to make yourself (or
the hot young girl you’re dating) at least 21. Make sure the
expiration and issue dates are valid.
Print the photos with the best color
printer you can find. Try several times until the size and
color match perfectly. Remember, until this time DO NOT
touch the original ID card.
Cut your copies perfect to size and set
aside for later.
Take a razor blade and split the laminated
sides of the ID in half. Start at one corner and work
slowly. Do not hurry and do not tear the plastic.
Pull any cardboard out from the middle.
Don’t worry if you can’t get it all.
Get a pan of boiling water going. Drop both
pieces into the water and let them boil for 20 to 30
minutes, or as needed.
Remove any excess cardboard or paper. At
this point there still may be an impression of the photo on
the front piece. Don’t fret.
Take a pair of tweezers and pull the
impression off the inside of the front piece. It should peel
off like a piece of skin. At this point you have 2 blank
sides of the ID with the gold stripping / logo (or similar)
still in tact.
Place the perfect copies between the two
sides and re-laminate. Don’t try this at Kinko’s unless you
know the night manager. You many need to get your own
laminator, but they shouldn’t be too expensive.
That’s it, have fun at the clubs!
