Step 6Prepare the cover and pages
Now making the guide it fairly simple. Using a page of cardstock, fold it in half just as you did with the pages. You want the holes to be symmetrical so mark one side with 3 or 4 holes and then fold in half again and copy the marks on the other half.
With your pencil, mark a small dot on the cover where each hole will go, you will also be adding eyelets after punching out the holes. Punch out the holes using a crop-o-dile or other large hole puncher and add the eyelets.
You are going to use your guide and punch holes into one signature at a time using your awl. Be careful and don't poke your eye out. Once you have punched out the holes for the signature, use your binder clips to clip the pages together so they don't loose the hole alignment.
