Anyone have a Bind it All?

I've been eyeing one for awhile and was thinking of spending my Hobby Lobby GC (thank you Santa Wink) on one.   I'm in love with the idea of making a lot of mini albums and journals/notebooks for my kids.

Anyone have opinions on them?  I was researching the BIA vs the Cinch but I do like the lower price and smaller size on the BIA (space is a premium and I usually scrap at crops).

Re: Anyone have a Bind it All?

  • I have a bind it all, but have not gotten around to doing all of the projects I have wanted yet. However, I did make small notebooks for my 14 nieces and nephews and they loved them! I'm still getting used to the binding feature so that my O-wires lay rounder. I would suggest just doing a basic google search for a 40% off coupon for hobby lobby. You can usually find a valid one, that's what I did when I got mine.

    I will agree though that I got it for the sames reasons! :) I have not used the cinch but the bind it all punches very easily. 

  • I also have one. I've used it several times.  It does have a learning curve to getting that perfect shaped ring.

  • What size/type of wire would you recommend starting with?  I'm a bit overwhelmed by all the different types.  I'm going to start with small journals I think.

  • I've used 3/4" and the smallest one (I think 1/4") the most.  3/4" has been great for calendars and gifts.  The smallest one has been great for memo pads and coaster books.
