I found two websites that sell the "curly comb spines". You can get it in clear plastic. Check it out. Hope this helps.

I will bet kinkos sells them to...thanks for the websites!
I think i would glue it down on a piece of wood..otherwise it would be pretty flimsy

If you didn't pay a fortune for your thimble, take a hammer and whack it so it becomes a slightly oval shape at the bottom. It will fit your finger perfect and not fall off.

Staples sells the plasctic spines, lots of different sizes and colors.

These are really cool ideas. I definitely think I'll be doing something along these lines.
