So I have decided it's time to start moving my Regional Machins and Wildings out of my stockbooks and into a more permanent home.
I was planning on using one of the available Machin albums online, either the adminware.ca or stamp-collector.co.uk. Here is the silly part where my head starts to explode.
I can't seem to find any binder/sheets that will work. Since I am going to print them, the quadrille are out. I did find a Lindner album and sheets, but $125 for the binder is a bit pricey. On the other end of that spectrum, the Royal Mail Definitives album would suit, but does anybody know what blank sheet would fit?
Again, I KNOW I am overthinking this, but I would rather try to do it right the first time...
Thanks!

In my experience commercially available ring binders work equally well, provided that the ring pattern is compatible. They also have the advantage of being available in several thicknesses to suit the size of the collection. Note that 2 ring binders are not suitable because of page weight leads to unintentional folding. In Europe 4- ring is the norm but I understand that 3- ring is the north american standar. I have a number of binders of different thicknesses together with some spares and as sections of my collection expand I can use thicker binders or convert from one thick to 2 thinner.

I soon plan to get into the adminware specialist machin pages and will print to Lighthouse BL02's and place in Lighthouse albums as I do with all my Steiner pages.
If you follow one of the links on adminware it will also take you to the Connoisseur album pages - these are pretty pricey but also very extensive and informative, following I believe the Deegam numbering system.

Hope you don't mind me asking, do you own a PUC?

I don't mind at all!
No, I don't 
I just wanted to grab a quick profile pic for my first post, and the PUC is one of my all-time favorites.
