Digital BW, The Print

Exactly what I've been looking after in the last weeks. Actually I was
hoping to find a DIY process to make bindings with metal wire spirals rather
than plastic, because they definitely look better, but it seems that (at
least here in Italy) you have to stick with A4 format at most, while my plan
was to print in square format using A3+ sheets (11").
Anyone knows if this is possible?
 
thanks,
Alessandro Pardi

I've been making books of photos for the last 22 years, to give as 
Christmas presents to grandparents, uncles, etc.  My images, all B&W, are 
printed 8x8 (actually 7.5x7.5, leaving quarter inch borders) on the right 
end of landscape 8x10 photo paper.  The pages are trimmed to 8x8.5, leaving 
essentially a half inch binding margin on the left.  For binding I use the 
plastic comb style binding system - the one that has a string of 
rectangular holes.
