  • Use Binder Clips as Photo Displays or Note Stands

    In Clever Uses, Binder Clips, Office, Photos, Household, Office Supplies, / 24 May 2012 / 0 comments

    Use Binder Clips as Photo Displays or Note StandsAs you know, we love the humble binder clip for its endless versatility and plenty of clever uses. Here's one more simple way to put the clips to use: as holders for your photos or notes.

    Just stand the binder clip on the flat end and place photos between the arms. Or use two clips on wider images and turn the arms down, balancing the holders on their arms.

    You can use this with index cards, memo notes, and other small pieces of paper too, as we've mentioned a while back (silly putty to keep the clip in place not necessary, I've found, if you have a stable surface).

    Your binder clip "photo frame" or note stand takes just an instant to update.

  • The Miura Fold Is How You’d Fold a Map if You Were Awesome

    In Paper, Folding, Office Supplies, Maps, Household, Office Supplies, / 24 February 2012 / 0 comments

    The Miura Fold Is How You'd Fold a Map if You Were Awesome In 1995, Japanese astrophysicist Koryo Miura designed a folding mechanism intended to deploying solar panels in space. The method, called the Miura fold or miura-ori, allows you to open and close a folded piece of paper—like a map—with one swift motion. It's pretty like origami and useful like a fox.

    Make sense? Probably not. This GIF is probably the best demonstration of the Miura fold in action:

    The Miura Fold Is How You'd Fold a Map if You Were AwesomeEntrepreneur Eric Meltzer describes it thusly:

    A Miura sheet has only one degree of freedom, and can be thought of as having only two states: fully open, or fully closed. Since reversing one fold in the sheet (that is, making a "mountain" into a "valley") requires reversing all of the adjacent folds as well, the Miura sheet feels as though it has a memory, and is very resistant to deformation.

    While designed for solar panels, the fold could clearly come in handy in regular everyday usage—like for folding and unfolding maps. The catch is that if your paper isn't already folded Miura-style, it's fairly complicated to fold. Meltzer offers this folding schematic from Koryo Miura's original design. Alternately, this YouTube video offers another method (that appears to be a little different). If you live in San Francisco and like the idea, you might be interested in Meltzer and his partner Shan Wang's Kickstarter project, a Miura-folded guide to San Francisco.

    Whether you've used the Miura fold before or you give it a try today, let's hear how it works for you in the comments.

  • Make a Simple Smartphone Dock Out of Two Binder Clips

    In Macgyver Tips, Smartphones, Cellphones, Docks, Binder Clips, Office Supplies, Diy, Clever Uses, From The Tips Box, / 12 January 2012 / 0 comments

    Make a Simple Smartphone Dock Out of Two Binder ClipsThe endlessly versatile binder clip is one of our favorite tools for MacGyver-like inventions, and reader David writes in one of his favorite creations: a 5-second smartphone dock.

    We've shared one binder clip smartphone dock before, but unlike that model, this doesn't require any bending, clipping, or any other kind of DIY skills. All you need is two binder clips and a piece of paper. Clip them onto the paper, throw your phone in between the tabs and you're good to go. It works great for keeping an eye on the time, playing music, or (as David notes) getting a good steady photo from your phone's camera.This may not work with bigger, thicker phones, but you could always see if a bigger size binder clip would fit your phone if you have a monstrosity like the HTC Thunderbolt. Thanks, David!

  • Seal an Envelope with Nail Polish for Better Security and a Happier Tongue

    In Clever Uses, Security, Snail Mail, Office Supplies, Office Hacks, Office Supplies, Diy, Clever Uses, From The Tips Box, / 12 May 2011 / 0 comments

    Seal an Envelope with Nail Polish for Better Security and a Happier TongueIf you want to really seal an envelope securely and avoid licking its adhesive underside, all you need is a little nail polish.

    Reader's Digest suggests that nail polish secures an envelope better because it prevents any recipient from steaming it open. It also keeps you from licking it. So if you want to make sure nobody sneakily opens your letter (or just want to save your tongue a little trouble), nail polish should do the trick.
