I want to make my own sketchbooks and journals out of record albums and lps. anyway. I read all the stuff in the FAQ about cutting the records and using D rings to bind them. but can I find rings that are like D rings but completely round at a place like walmart or office supply stores? I have a bunch of vinyl that I've saved for these but I want them to turn out like I see them in my head.

also, what kind of paper would be best? I'm not really looking to spend a lot of money since these are just prototypes for myself. I was thinking of just putting cardstock in the sketchbook and printer paper in the notebooks but I wonder if there is something better.

thanks!
