    This is the way I was trained when I was an apprentice almost 40 years ago but we did not use PVA glue it was rabbit glue and hoof glue, I still have the blank books I made as well as some of the paperback books I converted to hardbacks as class projects. I was only one of the two females in a class of 40 boys back in the day, not many young ladies bake then had ever considered bookbinding as a career choice. It is something I am for ever grateful to have been able to of learned and a boss who thought I had the potential to excel at, because without him sponsoring me I would never of been able to of study bookbinding.

      @catzkeet4860 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Really, other than the plough there’s ways to work around most all bookbinding equipment. . Don’t have a press? Use a pile of weights. Don’t have a sewing frame or cradle? use a chair back or buy an old picture frame. Planing the page edges is more problematic, and a book plough really does do the best job, but failing that, a vice and some sandpaper can do a reasonable job. As for rounding a spine, how else would you do it, other than “gently” hitting it with a mallet/hammer?

      Понятно что во времена давние, когда домашние библиотеки были полны старинными книгами, новые тогда книги переплетались подобным способом чтобы красиво смотрелись на полке вместе со старыми и стилистически от них не отличаться. Но в современных библиотеках книги практически всегда с современным видом корешка, и книга в подобном исполнении (особенно учитывая что это по всей видимости будущий дневник), скорее всего останется таковой в единственном экземпляре.

    As a leathercrafter I've often wondered how book binding is done. I really enjoyed watching you exercise your skills in this video. Amazing work and amazing detail!! I wish I knew how to do that sort of work or at least could find someone in my area that could so I could get some books I love rebound. In particular, I have a original book from 1867 which could use rebinding. Who knows, maybe I will be able to get into doing book binding with leather since I already do leather work anyhow. Thank you for the video. I subscribed so I can see more of your work. You are so talented.

    Do you make bindings of novels? I've written ne and I'd like to own an actual copy instead of just the .pdf :)

    Prawdą jest, że jest niewielka granica miedzy rzemieślnikiem, a artystą. Spod rąk tak zdolnego rzemieślnika wychodzi arcydzieło.
    Ps. Ja jestem introligatorem i chylę czoła przed tym co stworzyłeś.

    These journals are absolutely gorgeous! It's always nice watching others' processes.
    I was wondering, did you make all your equipment yourself? I'm especially looking at your paper trimmer. I've never seen anyone else use anything like that! Also, are you self-taught? This is fantastic!

      Thanks Amanda! I have made some things, like book press and finishing press but I bought my lying or cutting press with plough as you mentioned. Then I taught myself by watching other bookbinders on youtube, the only course I have been on is learning gold embossing and blind embossing.

      @@adeelsbinderypenart Thank you for that information! I've been looking for presses and was thinking there must be a better way to even out the page edges than I was doing, haha. I found the link to the Australian bookbinding site you referred another viewer to on one of your other videos. Thank you for sharing that, too!
