Tiny Log Books

[+kunarion]

For cache logs in my smaller containers, I've often placed folded strips of paper (or they're rolled up in the match tubes & 50ml vials). They're nicely printed with cache info, and lined for signatures. But notebooks small enough for a 2"x3" lock-n-lock are either kind of cheesy or kind of expensive, and still a little large for the container. So I'm making my own. I use a few scraps of paper for the pages, card stock for the cover, staple, and trim it with an x-acto knife.

 

The long thin one in the picture will fit a 50ml centrifuge vial!

I like the Twitter-generation simplified stash note.

 

The standard one is seriously TLDR.

 

EDIT (now that I'm at a proper keyboard): Also, good job on the custom artwork with the covers.

It will eventually just be a "." if keep paring it down.

Very nice. It's great to see someone make the extra effort to custom fit and make logbooks. Nice work.

I've seen many caches with small 'composition-style notebooks' (for example, http://www.officedepot.com/a/products/323629/Office-Depot-Brand-Mini-Marble-Composition/) cut across the middle, making two logs. They're bound, and with hard cardboard covers.

Nice! Making them like this takes a little more time but I'm sure the effort is appreciated. The great advantage of this is you can make to fit.

Well your "tiny" seems to be surprisingly large. I'm used to something like that

http://home.arcor.de/-surveyor-/Downloads/PET_Logbuch_CM.pdf and it gets more and more used also in medium sized to large lock and lock containers which have space for at least a normal log book (larger than those in your photo).

Those look nice! In an effort to make them more foolproof, i'd use Rite In the Rain for the pages.

You can create small logbooks with GC Code and description here:

I think they are very nice and show personal effort. Well done!

Those are wonderful. Great job!
