These templates are really great. I'm not a student, but I still want this for the mission control page, project tracker, and the 2-page weekly schedule. Thanks so much for your in-depth reviews! Really helping me in my search for the perfect planner

[@JakeReevesVideo]

Nice! I’m glad you find my videos helpful. I predominantly use my Rocketbook’s as agendas and I’ve found (so far at least) that the best planner is the one you make for yourself. I like the Rocketbook platform because it allows me to recreate that experience time and time again as my preferences change 👍

[@reginarhodes5443]

Your video has convinced me to give this a shot for my upcoming school year. Do you also have a link to purchase the pens you were using in the video? I didn’t find them on them on the Pilot website. Thanks for the great content!

[@harmony1211]

This is so awesome when taking online classes!

[@mimibaker2022]

First time viewer here - I am very impressed by the quality of your video! The production quality is amazing! I also found this content very helpful. Thank you for providing line and spacing details! I am hoping they will eventually allow us to purchase more templates individually so we can make our planners. Anyway, keep at it! You’re doing great!

[@JakeReevesVideo]

Thanks Mimi! I’m really happy to hear that you like my content. Thanks for taking the time to let me know, it means a lot. I agree - the ability to customize which templates are in a Rocketbook, or even have them print our own templates on their synthetic pages would be awesome. So far, the best option seems to be using a permanent marker to make your own (I’ve done this a few times) or to use their free printable templates and alter the PDFs before printing on normal paper (I hope to make a video about this in the future).

[@mimibaker2022]

@@JakeReevesVideo I’d love to be about to print and assemble my own pages book! I’ve “sharpied” a few templates in my day … it’s a cool tool, and I’d do it again. Unfortunately I’ve noticed the sharpie line can transfer to facing pages over time. Anyway - I’m subscribed and looking forward to future videos!

[@jonica7510]

Do you have a video showing how to take apart the planner and adding it to the Fusion notebook? I’m debating that while waiting for my notebook to come in.

[@JakeReevesVideo]

Not specifically, but you can do it quite easily by undoing the coil and re-coilling it afterwards. I usually use a small lighter to quickly soften the coil tip, which is normally bent, then I bend it back with heat after. Be careful if you're going to try that. Otherwise, be careful that you don't break the coil tip without heat 🤞

[@JosephDickson]

5:55 I ran into this problem when the Matrix was released. In that case they added support about a week or two after they started shipping the notebook. I suspect that although they had the code ready the app stores slow down the release process.

[@JakeReevesVideo]

Great point Joseph. Rocketbook is pretty good at integrating support over time, which is why I suspect the Calendar Stitching will get added, homepfully soon 🤞

[@Spokenfan]

Another Awesome episode 👏 I wanted to get your opinion on something, I was thinking of taking apart one of my Rocketbooks maybe the Panda Planner and laminating the sheets and putting them in a coil spine or disc type style, that way I can use wet erase markers and not have to worry about ghosting. What do you think? Thank you for sharing 👍👍 Stay safe healthy and happy 😃✝️🇺🇸

[@JakeReevesVideo]

Thanks, I'm glad you liked the video 👍 That sounds interesting. Is there a reason you want to use markers that are different than the FriXion ones? My main concern would be about the level of precision you could get out of markers and if they would dry as fast or not. Neat idea ✌

[@Spokenfan]

@@JakeReevesVideo I really like the Frixon markers but i must leave them on the page too long for a nice cleanup. I have a nice set of fine tip Wet erase markers that are really nice and clean up is a breeze. Thank you for the nice quick reply 👍🏻👍🏻

[@JakeReevesVideo]

Nice. If you decide to try it, let me know how it works. I am also wondering if it will be glossy enough to make scanning difficult 🤔

[@Spokenfan]

@@JakeReevesVideo I sure will 👍🏻. I am also wondering that 😃

[@adrianamarcelabohorquezmor7061]

I have a Core and a panda planner but the plastic coil broke when i dropped them i'm kind of clumsy, there is an alternative or repair option? Thanks! Me encantan tus videos!

[@JakeReevesVideo]

It depends on where the coils broke. If it is just the tip, you can take needle nose pliers and a lighter and carefully heat, then bend the end of the coils into a locked position again. Otherwise, you may need to try to replace it yourself or at a business supply store that binds paper.

[@adrianamarcelabohorquezmor7061]

@@JakeReevesVideo Thank you so much! Your advice helped me decide to upgrade my system with another rocketbook and improve it.

[@JakeReevesVideo]

I’m glad I could help 👍

[@harrisonthomas6072]

Hi, do you know if the yearly calendar and monthly/weekly planners have the same ghosting time as regular rocketbooks i.e fusion? Thanks.

[@JakeReevesVideo]

Yes. Ghosting is an unfortunate inevitability with the synthetic paper. The best thing you can do is try not to let too much of the ink pool together (try to keep you writing thin). Otherwise, ghosting will happen whether you leave the ink for any extended period of time, or if you repeated write over the same space, even if you were to erase each week, etc.

[@jirkatvrdon1089]

Could you please share with us the link for your pens ?

[@JohnClarkW]

His previous video was on those pens -- kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHvRmmuFhZJjoZY

[@JakeReevesVideo]

These are actually different ones in this video. Check out Tactile Turn (the standard bolt action pen and the Nautilus - today's the last day you can order the Nautilus it is special edition). I will likely make a video about them in the future

[@jirkatvrdon1089]

@@JakeReevesVideo Thank you :) !

[@waynehorne2734]

@@JakeReevesVideo I have the Nautilus and really like how it feels. Are you using a pilot frixion refill in the Nautilus?

[@JakeReevesVideo]

Hey Wayne, that's awesome! Great minds think alike 😉 Yes, I use FriXion refills in it because it takes the Pilot G2 style cartridges. I also love the texture! Awesome pens 🖊

[@idontwanttoparticipateplea212]

Do they have any page packs or rocketbooks with just blank pages?

[@JakeReevesVideo]

Yes they do. Check out the Orbit page packs or the Core and Flip notebooks 📓

[@JakeReevesVideo]

Possibly... thanks for the suggestion 👍

[@keithtjosvold4548]

where do you get your fancy frixion pens?

[@JakeReevesVideo]

The FriXion part is just the ink refill. I have a few videos on the FriXion compatible pens I use though. My most recent one features the TactileTurn bolt action pen, which I feature in this video 👍

Yes, all the Rocketbooks come with one Pilot FriXion pen 👍

[@alexbenzler5327]

do the frixioN 0,5 mm refills fit perfectly in the frixion lx or are they wobbling at the tip? Does anyone know?

8 classes for the schedule kinda pisses me off, I a music major. I usually have 10-12 classes.
