I love small rings! When I started out I thought I'd need 35 mm rings at minimum, for sure, but I pretty quickly realized that I just don't carry enough inserts to fill them reasonably (especially since I use monthlies and weeklies, no dailies). 10 to 15 mm is my normal range these days, I can fit more than enough in them. A tip: If you trim the inner margin after you've punched the holes, the pages will be easier to turn. They'll interfere less with each other in that tight space within the ring mechanism.
It's why I now have 3 Slim Filofax Lockwoods 😄 Slims and compacts help me get down to the basics and not overwhelm myself with countless 'just in case' pages.
@@quasithoughts1040 I even slimmed down at work from the slim A5 Filofax Flex to the slim personal Lockwood. I need bullet points to focus, not prose 😄But each person's brain has different needs.
@@chronicfish They do lie flat, no issues there! I also love the leather, but there are differences between the colours in this line, probably due to the dyes used. I find the aqua and the garnet a bit more luscious and soft to the touch, while the garnet and the navy are a bit drier if that makes sense.
THANK YOU! I've never seen a ring binder like this but I've struggled with rings because I hate feeling the bump in the middle. I need to find one of these

I've been eyeing the Lockwood! What is your overall opinion (Im guessing it's good if you own 3)? How about the leather quality and does it lie flat?

@@chronicfish Just forgot to add that the leather is sturdy, but it will pick up every scratch so it's a wonderful choice if you love that look.

I’ve been looking at these for a few years. Finally bought mine earlier today. Can’t wait to get it!
Could you share the Etsy link where you found these tiny rings?
