    text: "Fill the injection machine and wait for the plastic to start flowing, with a small nozzle and a constant weight applied on the machine, use a wooden rod to \"screw\" the filament around it, make it as long as you want, we recommend using a wooden rod because the plastics sort of sticks and makes it easier to form the spring."

    text: "Remove the small nozzle from the injection machine and extrude some plastic on a flat sheet, press it against another sheet in a press, wait for it to cool and remove the plastic sheet, cut it to shape, make the holes and assemble the notebook."
