[@ajc7295]

This is a GAME CHANGER!! thank you so much for sharing this video! I don’t think I can ever go back to single band tn or jump bands!

[@dossiercammie]

@@ajc7295 glad it helped :)

Thanks for posting your step by step tutorial. I can now jam pack my daily carry.

[@dossiercammie]

So glad to be an accomplice in the jam packing :)

[@Pen.Traveller]

Ok, first of all, thank you for this amazing hack and for your THOROUGH instructions! Second of all, more people need to see this cause I've done this to two of my journal and I don't think I could ever go back to having a normal Travelers Notebook... Lol, seriously though. Fabulous!

[@dossiercammie]

Thanks so much for your feedback, glad it is helping you out :)))

[@teamstarkid100]

This will be super helpful for me! Thanks for the tips

[@dossiercammie]

I'm glad it is helpful! :)

[@maryl.7226]

Thank you Cameron, this is both helpful and inspiring. Also, lovely “music to struggle by” when you were wrestling all the bands to get a nice length of leftover! I appreciate all the time and detail you’ve so kindly shared with us all. Blessings! You have a new 70-yr-old grandma subscriber!

[@dossiercammie]

So happy you've stopped by :) Blessing right back at you

This is excellent video!! I did this to two of my Midori travelers notebook years ago, but I forgot how I did it! This is awesome because I’m sure I’m gonna modify my other travelers notebooks and I can use your guide.!! Great video my friend!

[@dossiercammie]

I'm so glad I could jog your memory! Happy tinkering :)

[@beccaschlomann7592]

Great tutorial! I saw another one where the person punched extra holes (to the sides of the existing holes to have three inserts) and I was very unsure of doing something that permanent to my beautiful cover. This is perfect!

[@dossiercammie]

@@beccaschlomann7592 I’ve seen that too and felt the same way ! Glad to be of help

[@mids_mids]

This is perfection!!! I just tried it, and it works wonderfully! Thank you so much!

[@dossiercammie]

I'm so glad you're having such good results :)

[@addiesalad]

your articulate the process very well! this'll come in handy as soon as i get my hands on my TN hohoho thank you for sharing!

[@dossiercammie]

thanks so much for watching :)

[@caelointheclouds]

11:31 Your Midori has patina so lovely!!

[@dossiercammie]

Its about 1 year and 3 months old at this point which I feel is not very old considering the amount of patina when I see others on youtube, but perhaps I don't baby mine enough haha

[@urbaninkspotnyc]

Fantastic tips and very good video! I practiced on a TN I don't use very often and now I wish I'd just been bold enough to restring my daily carry TN. I guess I'll be doing that one next!

[@dossiercammie]

Glad it has brought you much success!

[@gentle.kindred]

Thank you so, so much for this easy-to-understand method!

[@dossiercammie]

its my pleasure! thanks for watching

[@tanya25m]

Thanks for this tip! Definitely going to try it when I need to change my elastics.

[@dossiercammie]

I hope it works well for you :)

[@kanup]

Thanks for sharing this! Just finished setting up one of my TN's. And it is so much better now.

[@dossiercammie]

So glad it's working for you! thanks for letting me know :)

[@eileencoleman.breadoflife]

Hey it looks great, I'll definitely try it!

[@dossiercammie]

Glad to hear it! thanks for stopping by

[@justinea.9092]

I just tried- love it

[@dossiercammie]

Glad it worked for you !

[@jonathonclary1681]

you can use a lighter to melt the tip of your elastic, it will pass through the holes better if it isn't fraying like that.

[@dossiercammie]

Thanks for the tip!

[@DL-idk]

Thank you! This is a great trick

[@dossiercammie]

glad you like it!

[@tilliet00]

thanks for sharing! 😊

[@dossiercammie]

Happy to ! :)

[@__amyl_]

I need to do that because I want to carry too many inserts around x) Thank you so much!

[@dossiercammie]

Good luck :) glad to help

@@dossiercammie I just finished! Took some time but I made it. I also added 2 bookmarks so the metal bead is packed. What helped was to burn the elastics tips to get rid of the fuzz and make it easier to put inside. Also I was a bit scared to not have the good tension because I'm new to this and got my TN last august only

[@dossiercammie]

@@__amyl_ I hope it serves you well! good ideas with the elastic burning and bookmarks

[@AELeeify]

Im loving those tweezers where did u get them

[@dossiercammie]

@@AELeeify amazon! search TOWOT precision tweezers

[@christadavidart]

So neat! Now I need to string all my TNs 🙃

[@dossiercammie]

Have fun lol :)

[@jonathonclary1681]

As a leatherworker, I'm curious about something. Leather is really good at adapting to it's use and shaping itself to fit the task you ask of it. For example, your cover is very well worn, it's probably got a few years worth of you working it to fall exactly the way you like it. Would this technique be as effective with a newer journal that hadn't had time to adapt to this use yet?

[@dossiercammie]

My journal was only one year old at the time of filming, and it isn't much different from most newer TRC Traveler's Notebooks! The only difference that would affect this technique is that the holes are slightly stretched, but I don't recall my first time doing this on many new TRC Traveler's Notebooks to be much more difficult or less effective, but perhaps others would!

[@manvstationery]

Great video thanks :)
