Re: [lace] print on demand/ringbinders - Torn Holes
Ah yes Jeri, Had a bad experience with those in my student days. I spent a whole week adding them to my textbook that came in a ring binder and went to pull it out after the holidays, got it jammed in the bookcase and came away with a ring binder empty of everything but hundreds of reinforcement rings. Probably a once in a lifetime experience but I was traumatised for a ling time afterwards Kind Regards Liz Baker > On 8 Jan 2014, at 19:51, jeria...@aol.com wrote: > > Office supply stores have little packages of adhesive-backed round rings > (shaped like Life Savers candy, with holes in the middle) made of a non-tear > material that you can stick over torn holes to reinforce pages in your lace > binders. - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

Re: [lace] print on demand/ringbinders - Torn Holes
Dear Liz, Office supply stores have little packages of adhesive-backed round rings (shaped like Life Savers candy, with holes in the middle) made of a non-tear material that you can stick over torn holes to reinforce pages in your lace binders.

Re: [lace] print on demand/ringbinders
The problem with ring binders is that after a while the pages can 'drop' within the binder and start to pull in the holes causing the to tear. I used to put all the pages into plastic pockets, within the folder to give more stability but then found that the photocopies or printing stuck to the pocket. However, these days I buy archive quality pockets that don't do that but I have a number of prickings where I have had to go over and add back in some dots from the early days.

In the UK Staples carries both two- and four-ring A4 plain cover binders in two, possibly three thicknesses. Rymans might also carry them.

Re: [lace] print on demand/ringbinders
Hello Jacquie and everyone Indeedy, this is the case. I repunched the holes of the first part of Ulrike's Torchon to fit one of our standard North American ring binders; the pages stick out the top but they are useable. The second one is in a proper A4 binder I pinched from work, from the purchasing department. It has stunning photos on the cover of survey instruments made in Germany. At least the pages are useable and protected (and the binder is super sturdy!). I haven't bought part three yet, but a dear friend in Europe contributed a plain binder. I swapped something of equal value including the postage. I recall from our searching high and low that a stationery chain in the US has A4 binders but purchasing was difficult by mail.
