I have a dual ring system from Zack’s Leather on Etsy (A6/personal size). I love it. I use the left side for my calendar/weeklies and some projects. On the right side I keep my to do lists and notes. He customized it with 20mm rings on each side. Highly recommend it!
Wow very cool! I definitely think it can be very functional if you often flip back and forth writing things, as you noted the reference can be in the left and writing in the center!
I'm not sure of it's functionality or purpose but I think your set up with the reference side and the daily side makes so much sense. This is kind of based on a 1921 design of the pre-cursor to Filofax and was carried by Grace Scurr, who started at Norman and Hill (now Filofax) as a temporary secretary. When the company’s offices were blitzed during the war, it was Grace’s diary, in which she had recorded customers and suppliers, that literally saved the firm. And it was Grace (who went on to become Chairwoman, retiring in 1955) who coined the name Filofax - “a file of facts”. The duplex rings were popular in the mid-30s with the military and with doctors. The designs back then were personal rings. This is the first pocket style I've seen.
@@plannercoven Thank you but I cannot take any kind of credit for that other than remembering it. I learned it from the knowledgeable folks in the Philofaxy group on Facebook a few years ago.
@@chaoswithsusan I haven't seen anything that wasn't Japanese made in a while. Filofax did release a 75th anniversary of this planner model and they only made 1921 of them. It came in a fancy wooden case and was probably ridiculously expensive.
Love this idea. I done need my trackers with me at thr office 3x a week but having an option for one book that truly allows me to have both life and work and keep them separate is a great idea. I wish this was in pocket size!
I love these types of double rings set up I have a mini set up with these from a seller off etsy minus the card inserts. The first time I saw this done was years ago on a regular size 3 ring binder
I purchased it on Mercari Japan, which is kind of like eBay, so the listed is no longer available. But if you go to Mercari Japan and search for the planner, you should find it!
BABE WAKE UP! SIMONE POSTED A NEW RINGS VIDEO!!!!
@@SHAEW0LF you make me blush!
the pilot birdy would be a great choice as a pen body for this planner. love those kaweco pens... the green body is my fav color

You are a glorious planner historian!!!
@@jessicasblack wow!! What amazing facts! I wonder if there are any US companies with something like this in the works?

I believe they do indeed make it in a pocket size! You'd have to find one from Japan though...
I have one similar to that one!
