    This honestly made my jaw drop. As a professional printer with access to electrical wire punch machines and sprial binders I would never have thought you could do that. I love the dedication and creativity you put in to make it work! Astonishing.

    Thank youuu.. This is very simple but helpful. Most of other tutorials uses some sort of binding machine (even though it's as simple as paper trimmer + The Cinch), I actually can't afford those as of now 😅 this tutorial saved my life. I have a lot of watercolor papers laying around the house, so I wanted to make a watercolor sketchbook out of those!

    @snager80 10 років тому +8

    you could take your aluminum wire and fold it in half before you wrap it around your cylindrical mold or what ever and that would make it strong enough to support its own tension, but then you'd need to punch bigger holes in your paper.

    Great DIY tutorial on spiral binding. Both with and without professional tools.
    Seeing various mini notebooks ion Esty first sparked my interest.
    Took me some time to find out how the hole punchers for these are called.
    (Because the square holes in the custom notebooks I saw made it obvious that there must be some tools for private use that make these in one swoop.
    So thanks for mentioning those hole punch binding machines. in the beginning.

    Very cool video! Good cadence, sound levels, clear instructions, and appropriately timed. One of the few videos with background music that did not detract from the core content. Also, your voice was pleasant, not shrill or nasally.
    I also appreciated the content, but thought I would mainly comment on the video quality because it was exceptionally well done.

    Hardware store wire is cheaper. I've made my own springs, but this will work with softer wire. Get a piece of metal rod or threaded rod (All tread). The diameter of the rod determines the inside diameter of the loops. Place it in a drill chuck, Push the wire down into the chuck, then run the drill on slow while feeding the wire (gloved hand, but make sure the wire is loose behind your hand, so a kink or loop doesn't grab your hand and pull it into the rod. The spiral forms in seconds.
    You could also make a hand crank.
    By using a drill or a crank you can twist any wire, make uniform loops. Hardware wire will be stiffer than the jewelry wire. You could also use really fat wire (1/8" and slightly larger) to make a very different spiral than commercially sold notebooks
