ajfries Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 The baby has managed to destroy all of the comb-binding spines I had. :glare: This both aggravates me & pleases me, for now I seem to have an excuse to buy invest in a ProClick. Is everyone still happy with theirs? Is it possible to buy fewer than 100 3:1 spiral spines at a time? (The regular spines; not ProClick spines; though I will get a few of those) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

73349 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Happy with mine. The first one (via Amazon) arrived broken, but once I got a working one, it has done just what I'd hoped. As a matter of fact, I will be using it again probably later this week to make our May book for school. I punch on the right--DS is a lefty--and consolidate the month's phonics, math, copywork and some other work into one chronological workbook.

Guest Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Hi Jenna, I recently bought one and I do LOVE it. I have read probably every Proclick thread out there, lol. I bought the spiral coils from ebay! (Yes! Who woulda thunk?!?) I was able to get 10 4:1 pitch spiral coils from ebay for $5. Now, from what I've researched, the 4:1 pitch don't work great in thin books, which I haven't personally tried, but they DO work fine in larger books. (I believe the proclick technically cuts a 3:1 pitch; you will see the difference when you order and cut with it.) I bought 20mm, and that is a good size for me. With that size, I have bound WWE (without student sheets), Galloping the Globe, Barry Stebbing's I Can Do All Things, and Spell to Write and Read manuals. The WWE was the thinnest of those manuals, and while it probably could have used a smaller size, the 20mm worked fine. My goal was to get a size that would fit most manual size books. I plan to buy the actual proclick spines for the smaller things I plan on making, i.e. an animal notebook, a year-end portfolio, etc. HTH!

nansk Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 I LOVE mine. I still use it regularly. Same here. I bought a box each of the 45-page, 100-page, and 150-page coils to begin with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ondreeuh Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 I am still using mine. I even recently bought the clear covers and black "back covers" that are pre-punched (via Amazon). I put scrapbook paper under the clear cover, and now I have beautiful notebooks that give the work a little more polish. I've only used the Pro-Click spines. I did look for 3:1 pitch spirals, but since I didn't see any I invested in large quantities of the Pro-Click ones. They are just fine.

I purchased smaller coils to use w/ smaller books and they just didn't work well. After reading your post about the 4:1 pitch, I bought some of those and replaced the ProClick spine (which I love) w/ the new coil on one of my larger books. I love it more. My book looks so professional now. :) Thank you for teaching me about the 4:1 pitch coils! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
