Binder Thickness

[Unome]

The largest binder I've used so far is Herps, which is a nearly full 2.5 inch - though we're shrinking it since it took too long to look through. All of my others are/were smaller - the largest of those was a 2-inch for Fossils.

The aforementioned very large binder is here.

, but none can compare to chalker's monster Crave the Wave binder he showed a picture of once that I couldn't find again.

To be clear, it's not MY binder, I just took a picture of it when I was running It's About Time at Nationals about a decade ago.

How would you know how thicc my binders are?

I have three 5" binders sitting at home: fossils, rocks, and herpetology.
Sad thing is I don't use most of my rocks binder

Darn, I feel inadequate with my .75in Astro and like 20 page Hover binders

Oof. Our thermo binder had 100+ pages from a college textbook plus my 30+ notes on history and conversions.

Back in my Fossils and R&M days we used 5-inch binders, but none can compare to chalker's monster Crave the Wave binder he showed a picture of once that I couldn't find again.

(also why is this in the nats forums lmao)

For Rocks, I think we used a 2", though supposedly my old team lost it while moving things:/. It was a really good binder too...I could have imagined going to 3", but I probably couldn't have done bigger.

In fairness, my Astro binder is only about 25 pages double-sided on this year's material, but the size is inflated because of sheet protectors and because I keep past years' DSO stuff in the back.

(chances are our Hovercraft team's binder is no more than a few pages)

Why binders in astro? I cant think of any benefit theyd have over laptops.

Some people find binders easier to organize or are able to locate pages faster with a binder. Also, some states, like Georgia, don't allow laptops for Astronomy so I'd imagine teams from states like those would invest in having good binders

Darn, my hover binder is honestly just the AP Physics Reference Table and a crap ton of MEMES
