That's a viable solution David, provided you're lucky enough to find a
Mom & Pop type outfit. I was never that lucky here in the Portland OR
area. All the binderies I contacted gave me the same song and dance:
we can't really take time away from our current contractual runs to
bind a measly 3 items. Paraphrased yes. But that was the gist of
the conversations.
Since purchasing my Akiles binder nearly 3 years ago, I'm amazed at
how much it's saved me. In time and money. I knew I would use it for
a multitude of clients, but I'm also putting it to work for a lot of
my students' materials as well. One of the best purchases I've made
in the past 10 years.
Wish I could say the same for Finale. (Sorry, couldn't resist a bit
of a dig!)

The problem that can occur when taking a small job to a print shop

whenever I needed an 11 x17 score bound. I always only had 2 or 3
and when I did find a print shop to do it, they acted like it was a
big inconvenience and charged me up the yahoo, $$wise.
don't go to Kinko's or any of the chain copy shops -- find a local
mom/pop type copy/print shop. They're usually very happy to help
you. There's one I've been using for over 20 years, just down the
road from where Kinko's opened up. Initially their business fell off
some, but everybody who left to go to Kinko's came back because
these people actually believe in equal service to everybody.
