Welcome to MyBinding video. This is the PaperMonster WB6, a complete 3:1 pitch personal double-loop
wire binding system. Built for the home or small office, you can do the whole thing right
here. With your papers all in order and your wire bind selected up to one-quarter inch,
release the lock on the top of the machine and lift the handle. You always want to start
with scratch paper to set the side margin control *** to make sure that when you make
your punch, everything is even on both ends. There’s also a measuring tool and guides
to help you in your centering. And now you can begin with your covers. Push them face
down or face up, just do everything throughout your project the same. Continue to punch through
your entire project, punching up to six sheets of 20-pound paper in small batches. Once you’ve
punched through all your pages, assemble your book in order, choose your wire, it’s time
to bind. You can use the little fence on the face of the machine to drape your wires on
the small needles pointed up. A trick in wire binding is to take the back page and flip
it around to the front so it faces front to back. This way, the seam in the wire, when
it’s closed, will be hidden inside your book. Thread all of the teeth with the holes
in your project. Make sure they go all the way in. Then, with the “C”, the open “C”
shape, push it into the back of the throat opening. This is the wire closer. This machine
can handle up to a one-quarter inch wire, which is around 45 sheets of 20-pound paper.
It’s that simple. Your book is bound and it looks great. All of the punched holes fall
into a cavity in the base of the machine and it is emptied through this little window here.
That’s it. That’s the PaperMonster WB6. For more demos, reviews and how-tos, check
