2-punch hole is my favorite cheepo book binding technique.
This duct-tape thing still requires a bit of manual effort. 2-hole punch is a bit less popular (3-hole punch is everywhere), but 2-hole punch is smaller: both the binding clips and the punch itself is just more compact.
2-hole punch has two choices: the "long-side" 11.5-inch binding like a more normal book, or the "top-side" 8-inch. The standard clip works in both positions quite well.

The punch holes take in some stress if you fuss a lot with the pages. For smaller booklets I just staple them together on the margin with like 12 staples 5mm from the edge. I often double side print myself a few articles or tutorials to read on the go and stapling never let me down.
