Bookmaking: Nylon cable binding

This is a quick and easy logbook to make.

Supplies You'll Need

• index cards or cardstock or heavy paper
• box cutter
• scissors
• nylon cable
• hole punch

Directions (Click on the pictures below for a larger image)

Step 1:	Cut cardstock to size.
Step 2:	Take about 3 sheets and punch a hole near one of the corners. I'm using a 1/8" hole punch.
Step 3:	Use one of the punched sheets as a template to punch a hole in the remaining pieces of paper/cardstock.
Step 3a:	Once all of the sheets have been punched...
Step 4:	Thread a small nylon cable through the hole.
Step 5:	Feed the tail end of the nylon cable into the head end. Leave the loop loose enough for stampers to access each sheet.
Step 6:	Cut off the excess cable.
Step 7:	You're done. Now you can write 'logbook' on the cover and stamp the cover with your letterbox's stamp image.
