Welcome to MyBinding presentation. This is a review of the Starlet 90, a Fellowes-made manual plastic comb binding

machine.

Fellowes Starlet 90Manual Plastic Comb Binding Machine

Built for home, small office, or classroom occasional binding needs, the Starlet 90 is a great little machine. Let's watch it

in action and check out its features.

Of first note is its compact stowaway design for easy storage and just good looks. To assure consistent punching

throughout your project,

there is a margin control knob on the side of the machine. It does work well, even though it's a little flimsy.

Punch capacity is always important for any punching machine. This one claims and can actually do seven

sheets of 20lb paper per lift.

And considering what this machine was made for, that's a good amount. But keep in mind the lever's on the right

hand side. So for left-handed users, this would be a problem.

When it comes to the binding part, this machine seems to perform just as well. There is a pull out tray on the right

side of the machine that stores some combs;

however, not very many. But there is a small handy little tool that allows you to take your completed project, slide it into

the slot

And make the most accurate selection for your comb size. In terms of the mechanics of the comb opener, the teeth are

made of metal but the lever is plastic.

But then again, most of the machine is made of plastic because its design is really for occasional use.

The most major limitation of this unit is that it is only designed for use with plastic combs up to half inch in

diameter.

This allows you to bind a document of up to 90 sheets in

And because the punch pins are not disengageable and the punch slot is not open length.

It can only be used with letter sized sheets and oversized covers. Anything smaller or larger just will not work.

But again, it's great for what it was designed for and for a price point of under $60, it's a good deal.
