B6 Binder With Rings And Fpf Paper?

[GreenMountain]

Hi Folks,

I would like a small to very small binder with removable/movable paper that comes with Tomoe River or other good paper, hole punched to fit the binder. Preferably leather or fabric...not plastic.

 

Can anyone think of such a beast? Something like this, but of course with rings, B6 or smaller. For ink tests.

Now of course I could use the old filofax system, but I don't like the shape of the holes, not to speak of the paper. I guess I could find a small box and use Exacompta cards. But I'd really like a binder.

Here's a binder:

Tomoe sheets are available online.

 

Don't know where you are, but you may be able to find a cutting service like this:

And punch the holes yourself

 

to add: You could alternatively purchase a Tomoe B6 notebook and cut the pages in half with a guillotine

I was given a notebook similar to a Field Notes notebook (same size)by a friend. Made with Tomoe River. Picked up on amazon a leather cover. One side of the cover of the notebook just slips in. Real handy too.

Wow...those Van der Spek binders are beautiful! Thanks, Kar. It's the spacing of the hole punch that has me wondering in terms of adding paper.the site doesn't list the ring dimensions or spacing. I used to have a 6-hole punch for some sort of planner but that is long gone.
Also, am looking for B6 slim, not B6. Yes, fussy, fussy. Index cards sound good for the moment...now, where did I put them?

Oh, I just checked for "all products on the VDS website and found their Mini binder, and then searched on it and found the VDS facebook page. Th

is is looking promising. I have emailed them to see what the exact ring spacing is and whether they sell a punch or whether there is a punch available somewhere in the world!

And Ute, I have the Kokouyo IDEA notebooks, similar to Field Notes, and they are great...not too fat. One can't, however, swap pages around as in a binder.

Let us know how it works out.

I wrote to VdS at Facebook asking about the rings on its smallest binder and this was the reply:

Here is the information for our Mini: Paper size: 68 x 108 mm (+/- 2.68 x 4.25 inches) Ring distance: 19 - 25,5 - 25,5 - 19 mm

Unfortunately I don't know where you could purchase a commercial hole punch.

Best, Petra

Now, assuming that I want one ink color per page, is 68 x 108 optimal? Not sure. Will experiment by cutting up paper. I think I'll trouble VdS for the dimensions of a binder the next size up while looking for a hole punch that would comply with the mini spacing.

Wonder why VdS doesn't put dimensions on its website...I like to see the details. As with travel, half the enjoyment of paraphernalia is in the planning.
