SCAMSS Sketchbook

I got so tired of buying a new sketchbook every month and lugging around a bulky and cumbersome object that I crafted a revolutionary new device to help manage this problem. I call it "The Artists SCAM system.

The SCAMSS or (Surreptitious Content And Management System) is a fully integrated sketching and note taking device created for today's on-the-go artist who needs to draw strangers without being noticed.

Ease of use
With the SCAM System the artist is encouraged to not be discouraged with the thought of ruining a sketchbook or making a drawing that you are not proud of. Once the top page is filled with drawings, you can either throw the single sheet of paper away or slide it into the back of the SCAM for removal and storage later.


Building your own, SCAM System

1. Get a standard sized wooden Clipboard (heres 3 for $)
2. Get some 8.5 X 11 Paper ( I buy a ream of the stuff jake Parker uses)
3. Put the Paper into the clipboard


Accessories and Preferences

* I prefer to use Binder Clips to hold my paper together at the bottom. This way the wind will never blow your papers around.

* Deluxe Pen holster - It just slides in to the area between the clip and the paper (pilot fine liners work best for me)

* Try putting a sticky note on the last clean sheet of paper so that you know where you backlog of sketches begins.
