    Lightbulb Elastic Pen Holder (Notebook Hack)

    Hi all,

    I made a similar holder, inspired by Kokuyo A6 "Worksupport Notebook" ノ-414 http://item.rakuten.co.jp/kokuyo/4901480096421/





    Materials:
    - Elastic strap (wide bra strap is good, pinch the missus' or girlfriend's lol)
    - Rigid plastic (I got mine from from recycled packaging)
    - Thick cardboard*

    General instructions:
    - Cut two holes with a sharp chisel. Make four parallel cuts then cut the ends.
    - Staple one end of the elastic strap to the plastic backing, measure with the pen, staple both ends, then replace staples (one by one) with figure of eight stitching*.
    - To even out the inside of the cover, paste a cardboard with a cutout.
    - Cover it with whatever if you want... I left mine open.
    - Done.

    *optional.

    Here, I will let the pictures do the talking.






    Voila..
