Hi!

Does anyone know a good place to buy organiser binders (those metal sprung-up rings) in small quantities. Perhaps about 10 items in 2-3 sizes?

Can't find them anywhere =(

Thank you!

In the 'Outlet Store' location on the Tandy home page, both three ring and six ring rings were offered earlier this month at very reasonable prices. I have never utilized the 'outlet' for their discounted items, but it can't be different than ordering any of their other products on-line.

The only difference is that the items ship from Fort Worth instead of from the closest Tandy Store. Sometimes they have some good deals in there.

Except that the shipping to Scotland for the OP would probably be a killer on the deal. Never know untill you check it out though.

Thank you very much!

How would you attach them to a cover? chicago-screw it to a strap & then stitch the strap to the cover?

Either chicago-screw or rivet them. If you want to hide the securement point, then you could attach them to a strap then sew that in, or attatch it just to an inner lining. Depending on the look you are going for, you could also go through the whole project and use the caps of either the screws or rivets as decrotive elements.

Personally, I think I would go with rivets in this case. Unless you think the rings would need to be replaced during the lifetime of the binder, chicago screws are kind of expencive.
