So after searching around and trying some things out I found it is SUPER easy to do this.
This video I show you just how easy it is to make a notebook. Using my favorite Tomoe River paper. It is a semi-delicate paper so the stitching needs to be a bit closer together to add stability to the notebook as well and help secure the paper so it wont tear out.

There are some good printed templates on this website...

... the benefit being that you can choose FP friendly paper for printing.

WOW what an awesome resource !!!

 

This is what making your own notebook is all about ... printing out the style of ruling or calendar or whatever to truly personalize your notebooks style. It makes it fit your life in your size on your preferred paper.

 

Thanks for sharing that.

As one of the masters of making notebooks and the one who personally helped me with this you are more then welcome to hijack the thread.

 

But your not hijacking... your adding great value to it.

 

Thank you for your input.

I use a laser printer. They are so cheap these days and you don't need to worry about your ink drying out if you don't use your printer often.

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
