It is hard to explain just how peaceful it is to only have the sound of you paper folding, cutting, and general activity going on with no music/ads! Your paper cutter is so strong, good looking, and well made. The books you produced are beautiful --- even your glue bowl is very nice. Thanks for a nice video.

I've just finished my second book binding project thanks to your videos! Pieced together the process from a couple different videos, but if youd ever consider doing a full walkthrough for hardbound book creation that would be wonderful. Thankyou for introducing me to this artform! ❤

I’ve made several of these books lately and everything works fine, except that the spine fabric doesn’t want to adhere well to the text block. Not sure how to fix that.
@bittermelonbindery
Жыл бұрын
Hmm is the cloth paper-backed or thin enough? I did spend some time rubbing the cloth onto the spine with the folder because it wasn’t sticking for me too, initially. The bulging from the stitches can make it tricky! Something else I can think of is wrapping the spine with paper first, then the cloth, since the paper might be a better surface for adhering.

It's letter size, so A4 would be equivalent! Letter and A4 paper is typically long grain so they're perfect for making A6 size notebooks.
