You did an excellent job in restoring the Liber Usualis, which is a book of the liturgical chants of the Roman Rite year. I know what it is because I own one myself, having been part of the schola at a SSPX chapel for some years. If you have a chance, come visit St. Mary's, KS, and our new Immaculata Church. The bookstore on the main street perhaps sells some of these books you are restoring. God bless.

Very well-made video! I appreciated the alternations between book work and commentary. It flowed well. I personally would have loved to see even more of the restoration process, as I could tell there was a lot you probably decided to cut from the final video. I'm fascinated by the process and can tell you are a master!

Do you have to put some sort of sealant over the gold after it’s been tooled into the leather to keep it from flaking?

Typically no. This is gold heat activated foil so it adheres pretty well. Old school gold tooling with real gold was adhered with an egg white base and seldom flakes off.

It's very interior me as I have old family books and old books I have bought that need attention, but are only worth something to me, so seeing this makes me think I might be able to find put more Nd maybe repair some of the issues my old books have and of cause the first question I have is what to uses eg, glue do I use that will do no further harm to the books. Paperwise I know about archival, acid free paper, but there's a lot to think about and find out before I touch anything 😊 Thank you for showing us your work, every old book is worth keeping and not either throwing away or cutting up for scrap type books 😢

Breaks my heart to see old books cut up for scrap. If you’re looking to repair your books I suggest using starch paste. It’s reversible.

I see you have covered up the information on the inside covers. Surely that is part of the history of the book. Is it now lost or can your work be undone and Mr Harrison's name and 1883 be restored? Nice to watch you work Malik

Very meditative video! I watched this as an artist. I have two old Bibles that need restoring. I am able to do it myself, as I can study what I need to do. What did you use for the cosmetic repair between the outside the spine cover and the two outside front and back covers? Do you use rabbit glue, wheat paste, or archival pva glue? What kind and weight paper did you use to attach the parts together? I know about using book binding cloth. But it seems you were using paper? Before watching this, I might have tried to repair it while open, but I guess that would make it too tight (or loose), and it would tear. Did you apply the marbled paper last?
@magnificatscriptorium
23 күн бұрын
Thanks for watching! I used an Asian long grain paper called Kozo. As far as glue goes, it really depends on the application. I was performing this repair outside of the conservation territory. If I was conserving I’d use something reversible like wheat starch paste. Kozo paper is very strong. You can use cloth as well but this is what I had on hand. Marbled pages were cut and sewn into the text block and rounded and backed along with the rest of the spine. Yes you’re right, doing the repair while the book is open tends to make the covers dry too loose and again puts stress on the spine when the book is stood up for storage.

Thank you! The glue and paper depends on whether or not you’re doing pure conservation or fixing for use. In this case I used PVA and wheat paste glue and a paper called Kozo which is an Asian long grain paper. It’s very strong. I also used a piece of Kozo to dye match the color of the book when I hid the seams.

Only the priest can touch Christ? What about the woman who bled? What about the blind man? I understand honoring the Eucharist as best I can, but not being able to touch Christ? How can that be so?

I know it might be hard to understand with how widespread and engrained Communion on the hand is but it is a novelty that is directly contributing to the loss of belief in the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist.

First, can we see a picture of the host that you found??!! That’s crazy! Also, I have an old book from my grandma. A Catholic compendium of popular essays and Catholic dictionaries in 1910.
