I use a 3 ring binder, and loose leaf paper, both college ruled, graph paper. I used a hole punch to make separators from file folders. I would think it would be great to see a collaborative effort to make this project all it could be. Volunteers editing files of reference data that could be printed out, and included in the notebook. Not one big file like the Glover pocket reference, but smaller individual files so one can print out the reference data, they will actually need. Most of the data is in the public domain

I agree priceless, for for another reason. Priceless, because this instructable represents the very essence of DIY. The Maker Make's note book is over price for what you get. For the same cost this instructable will net one a graph paper notebook, and reference data well beyond what's found in the "official" Maker's notebook

I'd add a page with the blank paper/acetate transparency trick so you can have a reusable whiteboard page- maybe even for the back cover? Otherwise, good job.
