    What have you found to be the best binding tool for your notebooks?

    Or do you only use 3 ring binders. I don't know how much room we would have to store a lot of 3 ring binders for all 4 of my kids.

    We use a ProClick binder with either the Proclick spines (they snap open and shut and come in very small to large sizes) or spiral coil (also in all sizes). It is easy enough my children can use it!

    LOL...we have a lot of 3 ring binders. I haven't been able to justify the cost for a binding system yet. And 3 ring binders are dirt cheap at Goodwill and yard sales. I'm working on transferring Like Subjects and Past Units into a something a bit more organized. But I am really looking forward to showing my grandkids how their dads "did school".

    I had some credit with Amazon, and splurged....we have the ProClick. I love it. It has been very handy so far. I have used it for putting together books for the kids to use next year and used it to put together a calendar, chore chart for myself and the kids.

    Tristan, where to you get the spirals that fit the holes from the ProClick?

    Thanks!

    Country Gal - I have a whole post about it a few years back here. Be sure to read the comments as I explain more clearly how many pages coil holds. The site I get coil from is MyBinding.com, the coil has to be 3:1 pitch for the ProClick. It's super cheap, comes in tons of colors, and they have sales and coupons so sign up for their newsletter!

    I only see boxes of 100s for one size. Have you been able to purchase smaller quantities? I need some to bind books that are 200 sheets+. I cut all the binding off my daughters' books.
