Nothing is easy. Even farting takes a lot of belly effort and sometimes its a painful bubble inside your abdomen, just giving a stupid example of how complex simple tasks can be.
Back to say thank you! Yours is one of the videos I followed to bind my mom’s notes into 10 books. So happy with the way they turned out! Thanks again!
This woman must be a teacher of some sort, it feels as though you're having a 1-to-1 lesson and her voice is very warm and encouraging. I also love the way that this woman takes you step-by-step through the process, explaining everything and in the most simple of fashion. The video is incredible. Everybody embarking on this kind of project, this woman is your ideal tutor
HOLY MOLY.... You have no idea how HAPPY I am to have found your video... (I think I"m about to cry)... Seriously... I am stunned. Just in the last few days... I have been packing to move... and found my manuscript(s) I have had, stacked up... and seriously thought of throwing them in the TRASH... Seriously... TODAY... I thought about throwing away all my manuscripts... I have a Trilogy: of the last 55 years of my life... (I'm 68 years old) as a Psychic Medium and Profiler and all the most unusual, astonishing things that have happen to me... including working on murder cases with the police. All true stories. And not one story is the same... 900 pages all together. (changing the names to protect the guilty/innocent).... needless to say, I'd have to make it into 3 books... I have been told I should put it on TV... lol. The reason I have not published or have any of my manuscripts printed is because... I took one of my manuscripts to a publisher/printer in a small town in Lincoln County, New Mexico (Billy the Kid Country)... and my manuscript just happened to be about him... after I had been living there for 21 years... (also a true story)... Long story short (too late for that)... I told the publisher/printer company that I only wanted to print the manuscript, because I was going to do the bookbinding... wanting to do the first 50 in leather with gold leaf lettering... Come to find out... this company was selling their authors books out the back door to other countries... I had heard the rumor, but chose not to believe it until this company also wanted to buy the ISBN number for my manuscript... When I declined that too... they would NOT print my manuscript. HUM!!!! I was broken hearted... but soon found out later that the rumors were true and this company did sell their authors books out the backdoor, and had left town... What has this got to do with your fantastic video? Because now... I feel like I can book bind my own books... and I LOVE the way you do this, because I don't want my books hard to open up... because they're tightly bound. I want them flexible. I love this Double Fan Bind... I am so Happy. Thank you so much for this GREAT video... YOU are a joy to watch and listen too... I am NOT going to throw out my manuscripts now... So Happy. God Bless you... YOU are a God-Send... an Angel.
This was great; I especially appreciate you acknowledging that most people dont have any sort of press to be working with... I would have loved to see the finished product and how the pages lay, etc...
I don't know why this popped up in my recommended feed....but it's perfect! I was debating some loose stationary paper I've had for ages into a journal. Thank you so much for this!
that was so helpful and interesting, thank you. I appreciated the discussion of materials you don't need (fancy book press) vs materials that are worth it (good glue)
According to the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for Lineco pH Neutral PVA Adhesive (as used in this video), its pH is between 4.0 and 6.0, while Elmer's Glue-All is between 4.8 and 5.1 according its own MSDS.
Would good quality pure cotton surgical gauze work for the spine? The local thrift shop recieved several pallets of that stuff and they're selling it for like 10 cents per 100-pack. Looks pretty similar to what's used in a lot of these videos. I'm gonna get a few packs and try it out.
yes, you can clamp the glued block between boards with just an 8th inch or so of the spine sticking out, and use a small hand saw to cut some slits across the glued spine. then glue some medium to heavy string in the slots for reinforcement. Though it should not be needed. If you really need reinforcement, do a sewn signature binding.
@@fakiirification of course, any reinforcement strong enough to work by this or similar methods will pretty much eliminate the lay-flat feature of fan bound books. But for really heavy or large volumes it may be necessary; also for books printed on heavy or coated stock. Another effective method of strengthening a fan bind is to modify the sharpness of the flexing angle in order to prevent the whole weight of a case bound volume from acting along a single glue line between any two pages. The aim is to replicate the effect of a slinky toy as the back is flexed during opening. Extra layer(s) of cloth are glued along the spine to prevent a small radius from inviting failure. Even heavy and/or rounded and backed volumes can be treated this way.
First video I could find on binding single pages... Love the video! Ok so I am a genealogist and want to make books for all the family lines that I have done etc... so every binder that I have is about 3inches thick which is a lot of pages... and is printed on computer paper... so my question is can I still use this method with so many pages ? And can I do this using my computer paper ? Or do I need to reprint on different paper? I have about 30 - 40 binders full of genealogy ...
Hi Meg! I dig your tutorial and would love to see some more!! Quick question about the glue, I've been using wheat paste on my bindings... do you think it will it work with this?
Hello Meg, thank you for sharing your video on this binding method. Can you please tell me the name of the wooden tool you use to hold your loose book block in place while gluing and where to purchase one? I know I could use the clamps but I'd rather check into purchasing the real thing. Thank you...:)
That's called a finishing press. There are plenty of tutorials out there on how to make your own book press, but this particular one was made by Jim Polestra of affordablebindingequipment.com I've come to rely on him quite a bit for the tools we use. We still utilize a lot of in house designs, but Jim's stuff is very high quality for the price. I'd recommend his gear to anyone.
Hey there, great video, this was really helpful thanks. What types of paper will this approach work on? I’m wanting to print photos into a type of book and bind using this method, but I’m not sure if the paper I’d use will take the glue. Any ideas? Thanks again.
I might have missed this, but I wondered why she didn't use the press to hold the pages rather than those wobbly bulldog clips? Also I would definitely put in a press to hold it while it dried - the pressure would be even all along the spine.
Yep. There are multiple videos out there about this step, so I haven't bothered to make my own. The name of the process is called 'casing in,' but searching for 'case binding tutorial' should get you on the right track.
Thanks for this Meg - it will be most helpful. But I have to say that I am horrified at the amount of TH-camrs who have downloaded your tutorials and added them to their own channels - surely this is infringement of your copyrighted material??
Hi Meg, I have watched your video several times and got prepared to bing my own book. Before giving it a try I wanted to ask your opinion... The paper you are using there is quite thin and I plan on binding 200g/m2 single sheets, which is quite thick. I'm wondering if it will still work or if I should consider another option!
It's tough to judge how individual types of papers will respond to a DFA. The weight of the paper is a good place to start, but let me illustrate how it's not the only consideration that needs to be made for a minute. I've used 190gsm watercolor paper in the past with great results. However, photo paper comes in weights around the same as the stuff I used, but it would never do well in a DFA. It's too glossy to take up the glue and too prone to creasing to benefit from the flexibility. Even though they're both the same weight, one is suitable and another is not. I'd recommend buying some blank paper stock that's similar to your printed pages and giving it a whirl. Experiment a bit. If it doesn't work, then you could look into a different method. Keith Smith has a book on adhesive free single sheet bindings for thick paper that's very good.

If anyone knows, can you use this same method with sheets folded in half and stacked instead of single sheets? Doe sit come out working properly still?
Okay, I know this video is old, so the comments may not help -- but, did she just glue the book backwards? It sure looks it to me -- she put the clips on the spine side and then flipped it over and proceeded to glue the opening side. Then nothing at the end of the video showing us the finished product. Sheesh!
Two questions; anyone who knows can answer 😊 1. Can you use Mod Podge? Or like, Gorilla Glue? Or would that not work? 2. By "using something smaller" you mean something that the fanned pages would hang over the edge?
I certainly didn't! Well spotted! Luckily this was obviously just a demo on scrap, but who hasn't applied glue to the foredge of an endpaper they were about to tip on, or put a case on upside down?!
Dear PeskyCat, i just wonder, did you notice, that you gloved the edge which you showed as ''...part you actually opening...''? Thank you for the video anyway.
I don't think it would be anything like flexible enough, especially in the thickness you would probably end up with. And it would be difficult to get smooth, I imagine.
Typically you use Muslin, you can use linen, you can use Mull, i dont really like using mull for double fan binding its not flexeble, ............................................................what kinda cloth you are using right now??
I would normally use calico, but you could try any closely woven, flexible cloth, like shirting, but nothing with filler, dressing or coating, because that might stop it adhering.
I wonder why you bound the wrong side.I can read the title, "The Love of a Good Woman", so it's not in Hebrew, which would account for binding backwards, although not upside-down......
Dawn Lewis It does matter when she has made a point of which side is the side that opens a few times while making sure the pages line up properly. Even if the pages were blank, she glued the wrong side. She states, "this is the side that you will open." The proceeds to glue that same side shut.
Great enthusiasm and instructions, but please speak a little more slowly. Good to label this video 1. A bone folder would be helpful for smoothly applying the cloth.
glue is applied wrong. never strokes from outside to middle. Mistake visible at the end on both sides. And why don't you just clamp that book block with the wooden one!? Much safer. And the technique isn't called "double fan"... it's called after its inventor: Lumbeck.
Quite a good tutorial, but : 1) the diction and the speech speed have to be improved; 2) bad proportion in the explanations and the action: the author makes too many digressions to comment on too little action.
What is the bird saying. I remember when I was free to fly through the sky going where I pleased, having a family, a community of bird friends. now I sit all day, they clipped my wings so I cannot fly. God made me free Mankind made me a prisioner. sometimes my guard comes by to say hi, cover my cage and walk away. love is what you do not what you say. show me you love me let me go.
I think that some of those comments are not friendly and often wrong, it is called Double Fan Binding as well as Lumbeck. Only one thing I would add, if you are using the paper you get in A4 size and folding it in half, the grain of the paper will end up the wrong way and the book won't lie flat. The A4 paper you need should be short grain.

I noticed it too but I commend her for this vid hehehe
yeah looks like it. Nonetheless it is still a great video.

What is the name of the cloth that we would use to bind the pages together?
Where can we buy this cloth?
Wow. Great teaching and your informal style works for me. Many many thanks.
"Brought to you by the number 4"😂😂😂
And the letter M.
Is there a part two - brilliant thank you!
Keeping it real ! Best video thank you
Super very informative. Thanks a lot.
This is exactly how I always bound my books.

Just curious if you tried the gauze for the spine. I would like to know because sometimes gauze does go for cheap like you found out.
Really like this method, can I use it if it’s only a section of the book?
Can you tell me more about the fabric you used? Can i just buy regular cotton at Joanne's? Are their different weights?
Come back! Good video, thanks for showing us. Still waiting.
Great tutorial! Not even what I was looking for but this is very helpful and I thought I'd leave a like and support you! :)
Would this method work for my paperback from the 70’s that’s falling apart?
Can you do this to glossy text like a loose leaf text book I have a binder put i know the pages are going to fall out in like two weeks
Thank you for this knowledge. Question: Can the glue bound book be augmented by stitching? In order to make the book even stronger?
yes, you can clamp the glued block between boards with just an 8th inch or so of the spine sticking out, and use a small hand saw to cut some slits across the glued spine. then glue some medium to heavy string in the slots for reinforcement.

Hi Meg! I dig your tutorial and would love to see some more!! Quick question about the glue, I've been using wheat paste on my bindings... do you think it will it work with this?
wheat paste should be used for endpapers and conservation work. Spines for paperbacks are best glued with PVA, its stronger.
Sorry for being so late but what do you do with the cloth when you're done?
It forms part of the binding, it stays on the spine of the book.
No, you are not the only one to notice it.
Why wouldn't you use binder clips after adding the blue cloth, to keep the pages more together? Just curious.
Where did you get the wooden holder/presser?

I don't think it would be anything like flexible enough, especially in the thickness you would probably end up with. And it would be difficult to get smooth, I imagine.

I would normally use calico, but you could try any closely woven, flexible cloth, like shirting, but nothing with filler, dressing or coating, because that might stop it adhering.
Will this work with textbooks? Anybody try this with textbooks?
If you mean a book with a sewn binding, I certainly wouldn't cut the back off just to do a glued binding unless it was very badly damaged.
I wonder why you bound the wrong side.I can read the title, "The Love of a Good Woman", so it's not in Hebrew, which would account for binding backwards, although not upside-down......

FYI, "acid-free" PVA vs. Elmer's school glue has nothing to do with flexibility. Elmer's is just fine if your book doesn't need to last > 15-20 years.
where I can buy that glue??? what's the name of that glue??
I think she said PH neutral PVA clue for book making.

The tutorial Is good, but very often this person speaks too fast
glue is applied wrong. never strokes from outside to middle. Mistake visible at the end on both sides. And why don't you just clamp that book block with the wooden one!? Much safer.
And the technique isn't called "double fan"... it's called after its inventor: Lumbeck.
you can't just say 'and thats it' without demonstrating the final product
Never shows end product...
There’s a part two.
@@Artovelithen they should link to it
Quite a good tutorial, but : 1) the diction and the speech speed have to be improved; 2) bad proportion in the explanations and the action: the author makes too many digressions to comment on too little action.
What is the bird saying. I remember when I was free to fly through the sky going where I pleased, having a family, a community of bird friends. now I sit all day, they clipped my wings so I cannot fly. God made me free Mankind made me a prisioner. sometimes my guard comes by to say hi, cover my cage and walk away. love is what you do not what you say. show me you love me let me go.
One does not release a parrot outside of its natural habitat. Are you insane? it will freeze to death in our winter.
I love trhis tutorial the only thing that bothers my concentration is her blabbering. She talk too much...... typical for a woman
I think that some of those comments are not friendly and often wrong, it is called Double Fan Binding as well as Lumbeck. Only one thing I would add, if you are using the paper you get in A4 size and folding it in half, the grain of the paper will end up the wrong way and the book won't lie flat. The A4 paper you need should be short grain.
