- Chatty!
I share how I use/intend to use my PLOTTERs, why they fit my needs; compare Liscio, Pueblo, Shiranami & Bridle leather features & a 4mm hole punch I found to use with the smaller sized planners!
Hole Punch info from AMAZON USA:
Brand: KW-Trio
3 Hole Punch 4MM Diameter Hole Puncher Paper Punch for Scrapbook, Loose-Leaf Notebook, Pocket Book (3 Hole with 4mm in Diameter)
I feel the same way about a bound notebook -once you have 5 or 6 pages from something else, it's tough to try and use it for something else. I love systems like this with removable pages. And I can't resist a good leather cover too. So, I like Plotter - I have a mini 6, but I think my favorite is William Hannah. Similar price range, but I like the paper better and the color options because they have an inner suede lining too. I just made an unboxing and review video on those because I feel like they are less well known.
Great video, I like that you have dedicated notebooks for different things, makes so much sense.
Thanks for sharing all this. I have the Mini and a Mini 5 I use as a daily wallet. I love them both. I ise a Kaweco brass liliput pen in my mini 5 and a kaweco supra brass for my mini. They both have a clip and I found if you just tighten the ring up a bit before sliping it on the pens it has been great with the plotter pen loops. Video is a great help for all the options plotter has. I found the Repesco punch works hreat for both plotters.
Thank you for the awesome comments! :) I’m the person who worries about scratching the color off my Kaweco ALs, but I don’t have a brass one.
@@rc17268 I admit I have a brass in every type of Kaweco and use them as my daily driver go everywhere pens. They patina so awesome and are indestructible. All my other pens ride around in a case. The brass kaweco are out in the wild. Love them worth every penny.
Do they both work well as a wallet? Is one better than the other? I’ve been wanting something that I can essentially turn square good notecards into “pages” with. I have a passport sized travelers notebook that I use as a wallet and I unfortunately don’t ever feel inclined to write in it. I’d say it’s because maybe it’s too small, but I write on notecards all the time. Do you like the plotter system?
What about 2025? Looking forward for an update what system are you using.
When I was watching your video and you started comparing leathers and then hole sizes?! **swoon** I loved the video. Thank you so much for such detailed info on your Plotters! 🙏🏼 ❤ 😊
💚💚💚😊
Hi Robyn, I’ve been a Gillio tragic for years (as I think you have). I’m just learning about Plotter, their slim profile and portability. Your video’s been so helpful. Thanks so much for sharing.
Thank you! Glad you found it helpful!! :)
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and tips. I just bought a bible size plotter at a Pen Show. Feeling more confident how to use. I'm in a new chapter of my life, looking for simplicity, flexibility, and a qood quality leather. 😊
Super jealous you have access to the pen show!!! Enjoy your Plotter!
@@rc17268 - Thank you! Lucky I ran into the Plotter company table. One of the blog creaters was there, too. 🥰
❤ Filofax Organizer Accessory, Portable Hole Punch, 5.125'' x 3.312'', Black, Pocket Size works for me❤
Hi, thanks for this video!
Does the mini5 and the bible sized holes in pages align ? I’d like to use the mini5 as a pocket notebook and the bible one to develop thougths and wonder of they can all be stored in the same archive.
Thanks in advanced for letting me Know!
Keep up your good work
They do!
Finally i start to learn about Plotter so thank you for this video. I have a question, does all of the weeks in Hobbonichi Weeks fit in a plotter (only weeks not the notes) Or you can only have a few at the time?
10 month after trying your solution are you happy with this? Because I experienced the same problem with note books and I still haven't find the solution. And I don't want to invest in Plotter if on the long run it is not working. Also how can I purchase "pre-loved" ones? Thank you!
I use my mini 5 binders the most. Others are currently not being used (I go through “seasons” of use/shelf).
There are FB and Reddit groups that have pre-loved pop up on; otherwise, EBay, Mercari & Poshmark are good places to look.
Hi, I am planning to purchase a Plotter Planner in Bible size and in black color, but I'm having trouble deciding which leather type would be better. I'm torn between the Liscio Black and Pueblo Black. Which leather would you suggest for a balance of durability and aesthetics? Thanks in advance for your advice!
@@tharani2364 hi! Not sure I’m comfortable giving a recommendation-each person’s use will uniquely impact a leather’s appearance…and the characteristics I love might not be your jam. I think all will fare well with normal use!
I’d recommend to go to the Plotter web site and read their descriptions for each leather. Sorry to not be helpful!
Thanks for the inspiration. I love my Weeks but needed the rings of a Plotter. I do have a question with the punch you mentioned (& I have): The Narrow size is the Personal on the punch, correct? Did you just use one side and flip them?
Yes, I do punch then flip. That punch is tricky!!! I STRONGLY recommend practicing on some scratch paper cut to the narrow/personal height. If I use the guidelines on the punch, it is off. I also found the silver dots on my punch DO make the punches line up correctly!
I’ll try to make a video…. Do you have personal/narrow pre-punched pages of any kind?
@@rc17268 Yes, I did practice & finally found the right little mark (between the Personal & A6 ) and made a tick with a marker. That seemed to work perfectly.
Hi. Found your video really helpful. I’m considering moving from Roterfaden to Plotter. Loved your find at Amazon-Japan. What color is that plotter? I’m trying to decide between the dark and light brown in the Pueblo leather.
Hi! That color is Rose. It was a Japan exclusive. :)
I am looking at purchasing my first plotter mini 5. I was hoping you could point me in a direction to help with finding accessories for it. Like dividers. If most things are homemade what do you use as a hole punch? (Assuming it isn’t a standard size hole) I am also trying to decide being the Pueblo and Bridle leather. I cannot seem to find a video detailing their differences. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hey! This video has my thoughts about the leather choices as well as a smaller hole diameter punch I found on Amazon.

I *think* it’s the same video you commented on…maybe I’m not understanding your question???
Finally got a stretch of days off…I’ll try to film & upload something!
Do you know the name for the Coral cover? & if theyre available somewhere? I tried Amazon jp, but perhaps I didnt do it correctly
5th Anniversary Pueblo rose!
I think you have adhd.
I say that because I do and we’re the same. 😆 I say it with nothing but love. 🙂
Their it goes your SS CHECK. 🤣
??? That’s a jolting comment…did I leave info exposed? Or just humor about $$$ for planners?
