For anyone wanting to try out the Plotter system before diving into an expensive leather cover you can try this. I was already planning on storing my A5 notes in 6-ring binders so I decided to just give a Plotter style workflow a chance.

I bought a hole punch and just went at it with whatever paper I had on hand.

You can make a "project management" folder by punching a A4 paper on the short edge and the folding it before the holes. Take another A4 page, fold it in half, and the cut it and you get two A5 sheets. I also punched some index cards for fun.

You can also just buy Plotters own refill and add them in. I do wish I could find 11mm binders to simulate the Plotter but this will do for now!

Do y’all keep your plotters protected in a case/pouch? I’m still on the hunt for perfect sized pouches to keep my plotter bible and mini (and maybe mini 5 TBD 🤪)

For anyone else searching, the plotter mini 5 fits into the Muji nylon compact pouch perfectly, as shown by this Instagram post I chanced upon (with lots of other plotter inspo too): https://www.instagram.com/reel/Clr2I2cjpJL/?igsh=bGZ2Y2VoemIyZnJl

I come from an amazing Plotter family, my father, brother, sister in law and I all have Plotters. My father asked if I could find a way to round the corners of the spine on his Mini5 since it often gets caught or snags when sliding in and out of his pocket.

I tried searching what key terms I could think of for this subreddit but didn't see anything (though I could have sworn I'd seen a post or two on it)

Has anyone done this already and recommend any techniques?

Thought it might be worth checking before I started trial-and-error modding. His is the black Pueblo with the gold-colored spine - Im hoping that gold finish doesn't come off once you start grinding, but I'd imagine it must? If its brass, maybe it wont be so stark as if it were a silver colored metal, but I really don't know much about metal materials.

Hello guys, I'm looking to buy a mini/mini 5/square to carry every day in my pocket. Any condition welcomed because I do like a rich patina on old leather. Looking forward to seeing what you have!

Hi everyone, I was planning my day at the San Francisco Show when I realized Plotter is not listed as a vendor. I was thinking about getting the weekend ticket just to enter the venue early to check the Plotter special editions that are usually only available at Pen Shows or Stationery Fest.

I check with the organizers, and they responded that Plotter decided not to attend the SF Pen Show since they already attended the SF Stationery Fest early this year.
I'm sharing this information because I know most people who want an exclusive show item, always buy the weekend ticket to enter early morning to buy them.

If Plotter is the only exclusive item you want to get, you can save yourself some money by not buying the weekend ticket and just getting the ticket for the day you'll attend.

I hope this information help someone else to save some money during the show.

Hi, I’m wondering if the Plotter Bible size is the same as A6? As in, would A6 refills for a Bible Plotter (or vice versa)? Thanks!

My first Plotter arrives soon. I got an A5 and am excited to experiment with different refills including DIY. I’m wondering if the Muji or Kokuyo A5 inserts match up with the Plotter rings well enough to use.

I know they have a different amount of rings, just wondering if the 6 Plotter rings match up with any of the 20 holes.

Does plotter offer a discount code for a first purchase or anything?
