Print Gocco This low-cost, low-mess, low-tech silkscreen system is ideally suited to short-run printing on paper or cardboard. You can also print on fabric with Print Gocco, but expect an irregular result with a handmade feel. Print area is small (approximately 4 x 6 inches). Available from www.welshproducts.com.
GBC Proclick Binding System No bigger than a three-hole punch, the ProClick binder punches a row of tiny holes along the edge of a stack of paper; finish the job with a click-on black plastic spine. Unlike ugly binding “combs,” ProClick spines are reasonably sleek, and the resulting booklet lies flat. Available on-line from office discounters.
