I decided I can’t put the video online of the bound book until I fix it. I know I was going to live with my failure, but now I just can’t. I’m going to show it, but I’m also going to show how I am going to fix it so it doesn’t look so horrible. I did order a wider wire which should help significantly. I’m also doing research on how to fix the part of the book that I couldn’t punch. I’m not exactly sure if the front cover is redeemable, but we’ll give it a shot. At least I’m going to try.
I made another video, this one on the Vagabond, so that people can see if they want to invest in one. It’s over $150, so it’s not an inexpensive piece of equipment. The price can’t be the consideration, though, if you need a die cutting and embossing machine and can’t turn the crank on the non-electric models. I should know, I can’t turn the crank on mine so just never used it. I’m not good at embossing or die cutting, because I just could not do it. I hope the video helps others decide if they need the electric model as well. It is a great machine.
