Beginner Guide To Laminators

Question by I Can’t Be Normal: Best way to bind my book??? Please Help!?
OK I’m trying to make and sell a type of book where the pages are laminated and are bound on a wire comb type spiral. I also want a thin cardboard type of front and back cover that is also punched to have the wire comb spiral through it. Is there a machine that I can have at home that can punch and bind the covers and pages? The book will only have 5-10 laminated pages and the front and back cover.

Also, what are those cardboard covers wrapped in? I mean, when I see notebooks or other books that have this cardboard type cover, they are wrapped in a big sticker type thing that is printed on. Can I print on those at home to have a cover for my book?

I know these are really ignorant and stupid sounding questions, but I don’t know the terms for any of this stuff or how they are used. Any help would be MUCH appreciated! I’m totally lost. lol

I’m not sure but if it has a standby I would think so. This sounds so much like me. I thought I had left the coffee pot on one night and drove back down. Of course it was off.

Answer by Diet_smartie
He makes a profit of 3.50 every time he sells an item.
So you divide 1000 by 3.5 to find the number of items he needs to sell to break even. I think the answer is 286.

Best answer:

Answer by Blaze
4.00 – .50 = 3.50 (the amount of profit he makes each time)

So

1000/3.50 = 285.71

So about 286 cards
