Inventor creates a new way To organize paper
Elijah Abron bears the same name as the Old Testament prophet. Like his namesake, he's got predictions about the
future To offer. But his target audience the soon-to-be-converted, and perhaps that's all of us-are those in home,
school and business settings trying To turn out 21 st-century projects from printers or fax machines, but stuck with
antiquated ways To fasten them together.
At least, that's what the prophet of Brooklyn Center is preaching. His brand-new patent gives him sole rights To
manufacture paper, usable in any office machines, with a slim vertical band of adhesive that binds stacks of
documents firmly and neatly in place. With this breakthrough, the need would be eliminated To fumble with paper
clips, stapler it's always empty anyway, isn't it? , binder holes or the manila folders that invariably spill out whenever
you're making a presentation.
The idea came To him in one of those Eureka moments with which the best of inventors are blessed. Working as a
maintenance supervisor in a Minneapolis printing plant-his longtime specialty he spent one evening shift in
frustration, hunting for a stapler. "There's got To be a better way," he told himself "and that's when I came up with my
paper,
concept." Elijah fooled around with twofaced tape, made up a sample and showed it off around the shop. When
everybody expressed, Pretty amazing! He knew he was onto something and headed for a patent attorney. That was in
2000; the wheels of bureaucracy aren't known for their speed records, so the patent came through on May 18, giving
him a comer on the market.
We've got To give Eli's dad some of the credit, though. He supplied the genes and gumption To his son as he raised
him in Chicago. "My father was a mechanic, and I pretty much took the trade up from him," Eli allows. "He took me with
him To his job at a paper company, where I got pretty good at troubleshooting equipment and making repairs. I loved
the field.
"Around the house, my dad was multitalented in making repairs; he never had To pick up the phone. When I wanted a
car, he took me To a junkyard and said, 'Pick anyone you want. If you're not a rich man, you've got To learn how To
make those repairs.' I rebuilt the whole car, myself, and not just going out and buying replacement parts: I tore down
and rebuilt the whole thing" and never stopped since. He has also built the expansive room above his garage in
Brooklyn Center he uses as his office-world headquarters of Eli's Paper.
Goodbye Paper Clips: Elijah Abron is optimistic that his "Eli's Paper" will change how society utilizes paper for
generations To come. Also great for scrap booking
Because his present position at a hard drive company requires four 12-hour days
followed by five days off, Eli has some of the capital it requires (not much) To launch his new enterprise as well as
time To manufacture it by purchasing rolls of paper, cutting To size, attaching the glue strip and packaging it in
packages of 50 sheets per pack and sales for $21.00. The next step is To approach potential users, starting with the
college crowd. "I plan To visit campuses and give out free samples To students," he declares. After that, it's off To
Best Buy, Office Max, Office Depot, Target and the like To demonstrate its appeal To lawyers, realtors, the
self-employed-whoever needs To bind documents, including funeral memorials, church directories, kids' school
projects and what-have-you. What he has, we're guessing, is a hit on his hands. To learn more or even buy some of
