I'm sure you could make binders from scratch with some 3" PVC tube

Cut two pieces to a 1" width

Split them in half to make two semicircles

Add a 1" wide hinge on one end of the split

Cut pieces of 1/4" thick wood into rectangles 1" x 3/4" and glue around the outside of the tube

- leave space around the hinge so they can open

- you may want to scallop the inside to match the curve of the PVC pipe

- you might split one of the rectangles to mount magnets to hold the cuffs closed

Line the inside with 1" foam weatherstripping

Connect the two cuffs together with 1/4" eye hooks

Tada!

Or just watch this YouTube video:

Where's that hardware store? I'm going build a set for the missus!

I made a pair for SDCC 08', but based them off the very simple looking gold colored version that Luke put on Chewie. I rolled some aluminum flat stock, hinged them and gave them a magnet closure.

I think so.

Nothing special, easy to make, we had a chewie that year to put them on.

does anyone here knows who is Andrew Page? His binder looks decent and it even comes with a holder.

Any way to contact him is appreciated. :)

Andrew is part of the SCG, you can join as a "friend" and PM him there for sure. I dont know if he still makes the binders etc.
