EDC Hack #1 Notebook Calendar

I like to hack my EDC stuff to better fit my lifestyle, and one thing that I do is create small calendars for my notebooks.

Until recently, I've been using the 'cal' command from Terminal on my MacBook to make them. I have to cut and paste them into another document, however, because the cal command wants to print a full year's calendar in a three by four format, but I need them in a single column so I can get three to a page. Then I print, cut, tape into the back of my notebook (but before the perforated pages, of course) and I am left with something practical but, well, aesthetically lacking.


Recently I saw this: over at timeadedate.com. Wow, what a cool tool for DIY and EDC hacks. Within a minute I had created a single column, page broken pdf that I can save and print at will.


Looks so much better. It is easy to use, customizable to a nice degree, and free. Definitely something to bookmark.
