Question 3

How do you know what coils to buy?

Accepted Answer

Thank you for your interest in the We R Memory Keepers Mini Cinch Bookbinding Tool. Choosing the right coils for your bookbinding project is an important step to ensure a professional and durable finish. The type and size of coils you need depend on a few factors:

Page Count: The number of pages you plan to bind together will influence the coil size. Thicker books will require larger coils.

Book Size: The dimensions of your book also matter. A larger book might need longer coils to accommodate the added width.

Material Thickness: If your pages are made of thicker materials, such as cardstock or chipboard, you'll need coils with a larger diameter to accommodate the thickness.

Pitch: Coils come in different pitches, which refers to the spacing between the loops of the coil. The most common pitch is 4:1, which means there are 4 loops per inch. Make sure the pitch of the coils matches the holes punched by your Mini Cinch tool.

Color and Style: Coils come in various colors and finishes. Choose a color that complements your project's design.

To determine the right coil size, measure the thickness of your entire book (including covers) when stacked together. You can then consult the manufacturer's guidelines for the Mini Cinch tool, as they often provide coil size recommendations based on book thickness.

Additionally, you can find coil sizing charts provided by the coil manufacturers themselves. These charts usually correlate book thickness with the appropriate coil size. You can use this information to choose coils that will work best for your project.
