Making this process look so easy speaks volumes of your skills! As much as I like technology... a tangible book of this quality will never be beaten by an ebook.
Fantastic! Thank you for sharing... can you or anyone provide additional resources to learn more about blind tooling for case bound leather books? Very interested in the specifics, re type of leather, thickness required, how to pare for tooling, preparation, design layout... thanks again for sharing, I'm sure many of us have the same questions 😀 😄 😊
hi dennis! been a follower for a while now and love your books and videos. as someone who wants to start tooling leather covers, i wanted to ask - is it possible to do so without professional tools? does it have to be hot tooling or can it be stamping like with veg tan? thanks for putting out some wonderful content!
Welcome! I'm entirely self-taught, having picked up techniques from both online resources and books. And if you are referring to my brass finishing tools, I made them myself.😊
My name is Colleen Louw, you will need my name for your last will and testament to bequeath your hand made books to me. Thanking you in advance. 😂 Just kidding, it is a privilege to watch you work sir.
Very nice, and great to see such good results achieved with tools that you've made yourself - and yes I'd love to see more of this kind of thing!
More to come!

I couldn't agree more!
This also is technology. Just because it isn’t electronic doesn’t mean it isn’t technology.
Love the background sounds, train, fan and birds.
Beautiful work you do!

Hi, I just found this awesome channel, and I have a few questions.
1. Where did you learn these techniques?
2. Where did you buy your tools?
