Pro-Bind 2000 Yearbook Binding Kit Review
With budgets being cut in schools across the nation, it's never been more important to save money. If your school is looking for a cost-effective way to put your yearbooks together, you should take a look at the Pro-Bind 2000 Yearbook Binding Kit from MyBinding.com. It has everything you'll need to indulge in this academic tradition without breaking the bank. Here's a short look at what's contained in this kit so you can decide if it's right for you.
- The Pro-Bind 2000. This machine is a thermal binding device that can bind a hardcover document in about one minute. (This binder can process a softcover device in half that time.) It's possible to bind more than one book at a time depending on the thickness of your work. Also, this machine has an open throat that's 14.75" wide so you won't be stuck working with letter-sized covers. The Pro-Bind 2000 features all-metal construction for durability and it's unlikely to overheat because the heater and circuit board aren't next to each other. Best of all, this machine is easy to operate so you'll be able to get your students involved in the binding process. The Pro-Bind 2000 is backed by a one-year warranty.
- The Pro-Bind Crimper. If you make hardcovers books with the Pro-Bind 2000, you're going to need to crimp them right after they come out of the device. Crimping helps straighten your document's spine and makes the binding more secure overall. You can do this with the Pro-Bind Crimper. Just stick your book inside the crimper and pull down on the handle. Your book will then be finished and you can move on to other things. (Note this device can only crimp one book at a time.) The crimper also has a one-year warranty.
- Fifty hardcover binding spines. Finally, this package comes with a box of 50 hardcover binding spines. These covers are designed for use with letter-sized paper (8.5" x 11") and depending on their size, they can bind up to 280 sheets. Four different colors are available : black, white, maroon, and blue. (Note: all covers are finished with a kidskin-like material.) You can even get a design, logo, or statement printed on these covers to give your yearbooks an eye-catching look. Foil-stamping is also available.
All in all the Pro-Bind 2000 Yearbook Binding Kit has all you need to bind your own yearbooks without spending a lot of money. The Pro-Bind binding machine is one of the most durable devices on the market and it will help bind your yearbooks quickly and easily. The Crimper is a nice addition, especially since you'll need one to finish off your work. And you can't go wrong with a bunch of hardcover spines. The only thing you should keep in mind about this kit is that it's better for smaller schools simply because you'll only be able to bind one or two documents at a time. So if all of this sounds good to you, visit MyBinding.com today so you can order this great kit and get started on that yearbook while saving money.
