That is so great to hear you finally found this. When I figured out all the important steps I had to record it. Glad that many years later it still helps! Your comment made me happy, enjoy your notebook and your day! :D
That punch is made in Taiwan, my hometown ! When the punch appeared at stationary exhibition this year, all products sold out ! I started to use disc binding system from July, and I made a bullet journal. Now I want to buy more discs for making different purposes of notebooks. Addict on DIY notebook !😊♥️
This guide is so helpful and complete! Thank you so much for making my college life so much easier! Been looking for this for awhile now. You literally save all my paper!
You make the clearest instructions. I've listened to others who are Not experienced with explanations. I appreciate your brief directions for the crafts. I have also subscribed to your channel. I believe you may become my favorite. 🌝
omgggg i just noticed i didn’t press the little ruler until it clicked so that’s why i could only get 10 holes on a letter sized sheet instead of 11 and i thought my puncher was broken or smth 😭 tysm aaaah your video is so helpful! it’s very detailed and i must say it helped me a lot right from the beginning🤧 i’m from mexico and not a lot of people know about disc bound notebooks so there aren’t as many videos, thank you again for lightning me! 🤍
Glad you know now!! Here in the Netherlands people don't know either, so I felt like I had to make this video and share what I learned when I made my own notebooks! Thanks so much for leaving a kind comment, enjoy your notebooks!!
Hi there! That was so eaaaaasy! I was looking for a video like this because I wanted to know if the mushroom puncher works fine and it seems its perfect! I already buy it from aliexpress (with a big mount of disc xD) so I can finally make my own disc notebook. Sorry for my bad English, I'm from Chile (and believe me, it was hard to find this video). Hope you understand what I'm trying to say 💕
Hi there! So glad to read your message and you find the video helpfull. Your English is great don't worry about it at all! I hope you will enjoy using the notebooks a lot, take care!
Yeeeees! Yesterday the parcel arrives and now I'm making my own notebooks 💕 During this days I keep on working from home (I'm math teacher) and I really need different notebooks to organize myself and the classes. Thank you for asking! 💕💕
Hi Nandika, thanks for your comment! With the plastic front and back cover I think between the 120-160 standard A4 (100 grams paper) to keep it comfortable to use and turn the pages, it also depends on how many tab sheets you have in there, those are mostly a bit thicker :)
Yea, it's strong enough to go through thin plastic covers aswell. The covers I use are from plastic too. So Laminated covers should be fine aswell. I hope you have fun creating your notebooks!
@@TubeYoYOYO Sweet of you to say that! I have no plans to make my channel big, just enjoy making videos from time to time when I think I have something to share :) Thank you for your support, take care and have a great week :)
There's something I can't seem to get straight answers for anywhere, and it is this: are the moshroom sizes standarized? meaning any punch will do the correct size for the discs?
I don't think I can give you an answer to that question aswell, only can share what I experienced. I tried this puncher with many different discs, smaller and larger ones, different brands, and they all fitted. So maybe it is kinda standard?
love your video i have the same system too and same puncher i have one favourite shop in aliexpress too i think its name is global something but it has more cheaper and also give bulk discount if you wana try i purchased those metal one and the one one clear with glitter love them
Hi! You have to do more than 1 paper a time. If you only do 1 or 2 papers the chances of the mushroom puncher getting stuck is higher. How many exact papers depends on the thickness of the paper, but normal sheets should be around 20 maximum at a time
I would say it is, the notebooks have endless options when you have created a couple with tabsheets. You can customise it to the fullest. I stopped using this for everything since it is a bit time consuming, but if you have the time it is durable.
Hi, thanks for your sweet comment. I don't know about lbs measurements, but the normal white paper is 80 grams, it's from a relatively cheap store, although it is good, I would recommend more like 100 upto 200 grams if you have the option. Since I assume you will be using highlighters (like the famous Stabilo Boss or Mildliners that I like to use) since with 80 grams you can have the highlighter 'bleed or ghost' through the paper. Hope that was useful :) take care!

If you don't mind, can you please share the measurement of the final cover after all the cutting And thank you for your guidelines. I bought all those items long ago but just started using them recently, then found my punches aren't aligning properly. Your tips were really helpful
I am using A4 sized paper which is 210 × 297 mm (corresponding with 8.3 × 11.7 inches). The cover pieces of my notebooks (after the cutting) are 225 × 305 mm (8.85 × 12 inches). For if you want to know where I punch (measured the middle of the mushrooms: First one starts15mm (0.6 inches) away from the beginning, in between two discs is (measured middle to middle) 25mm (1 inch). A little tip: I am keeping the width (horizontal) longer in case I want to add the tab sheets that stick out more, so these won't be wider than the cover piece. I hope I helped you out with this! :] Take care Sadia!
I only see this comment now :o The things I used so far are plastics, like the cover of a folder, but also placemats (cutted in the right format) I have also use thicker carton but I wasn't a fan of that. Goodluck!
You won't believe how long I've been looking for this sort of thing. Thank you!
That is so great to hear you finally found this. When I figured out all the important steps I had to record it. Glad that many years later it still helps! Your comment made me happy, enjoy your notebook and your day! :D
Bought discs on sale today and was thrilled to find you making your own books by reusing “things” at home!! Smart, personalized and thrifty!! 👍

It is so much fun to be creative and make something usefull! I am glad you like your DIY Bullet Journal, keep on going and stay creative! :]

@@SasuchanXme So cool, I am glad you are having a good time making the notebooks! I am a math teacher too, take care during this weird time! x
How many pages are there (in your notebook)? And how many discs were in the package you bought?
Hi..real helpful video. Can you tell me about how many pages will the 28mm disc hold?
Hi Nandika, thanks for your comment!

This was sooo helpful!!!!! Thank you. 💕💕
I am so glad, thank you for letting me know!
Can the mushroom-punch punch laminated covers and plastic covers too ?
I would love to use my own DIY laminated covers for the DIY disc bound notebook
Yea, it's strong enough to go through thin plastic covers aswell. The covers I use are from plastic too. So Laminated covers should be fine aswell.
I hope you have fun creating your notebooks!
@@RibelMay thank you so much !! You are such a sweetheart!! Hope and pray your channel grows !! It deserves to

hi! can i ask about how much paper can the mushroom puncher punch tgt? or is it only 1 paper per punch?
Hi! You have to do more than 1 paper a time. If you only do 1 or 2 papers the chances of the mushroom puncher getting stuck is higher. How many exact papers depends on the thickness of the paper, but normal sheets should be around 20 maximum at a time
Gonna be using this to hold world information for my D&D gameeee
That is a much better use than for math homework haha. Have fun with D&D and world creation!
@@RibelMay lol thank you!! It shows up in the mail today
I really want to try the disk technique to make a book of shadows!! Is this technique durable?
I would say it is, the notebooks have endless options when you have created a couple with tabsheets. You can customise it to the fullest. I stopped using this for everything since it is a bit time consuming, but if you have the time it is durable.
@@RibelMay Okay thank you so so much! This was the only thing stopping me from trying it out!
does it fall apart??
awesome job... what is the weight of the printing paper you used? eg. 20lbs 22lbs etc
Hi, thanks for your sweet comment. I don't know about lbs measurements, but the normal white paper is 80 grams, it's from a relatively cheap store, although it is good, I would recommend more like 100 upto 200 grams if you have the option.

Instead of using a folder for a cover, what other type of material can I use to make the cover pieces for a disc notebook???
you can use color cardboards ✌️😎
www.amazon.com/s?k=color+cardboard+sheets
thank u awesome
👍👍👍👍
Is a A4 bigger than A5?
Yes, A4 is twice the size of A5 :]
Good
If you don't mind, can you please share the measurement of the final cover after all the cutting
And thank you for your guidelines. I bought all those items long ago but just started using them recently, then found my punches aren't aligning properly. Your tips were really helpful
I am glad to hear you found my tips helpful! I'll measure the plastic cover tomorrow for you when I'll have it in my hands again :]
I am using A4 sized paper which is 210 × 297 mm (corresponding with 8.3 × 11.7 inches). The cover pieces of my notebooks (after the cutting) are 225 × 305 mm (8.85 × 12 inches).

I hope I helped you out with this! :] Take care Sadia!
@@RibelMay Thank you so so much
you could punch half that many and save yourself from buying so many disks!
Instead of using a folder for a cover, what other type of material can I use to make the cover pieces for a disc notebook???
I only see this comment now :o
The things I used so far are plastics, like the cover of a folder, but also placemats (cutted in the right format) I have also use thicker carton but I wasn't a fan of that. Goodluck!
