I purchased a Fellowes comb binding machine to manage my growing collection of knitting patterns. The best part of this approach is creating a folder of frequently used patterns or all those of one designer. The booklet fits neatly into my knitting bag and the pages stay nice and flat not folded and wrinkled and subject to tears.
These binding spines are perfect for our annual reports each year. We also use them for special productions from time to time and have always found just the right color and size for our project.
I use this product to bind the books (class and individual) my Kindergarten students make. It looks nicer and more like a book when I bind it with combs rather than stapling the pages together.
Why does the competition offer several choices of how many to purchase? Small package for minimal use large package for businesses or organizations. But not Staples? "I'm sorry but this is the only size it comes in." Not good enough. I bought them this time (needed for a project) but never again.
