    Hi Thank you so much for your wonderful book binding tutorials, I have never made a book before, with your help have printed, stitched and bound two wonderful books. This has been a fabulous experience during all these weeks of lock down due to coronavirus, you are a very talented generous person to share your skills so freely, a fab teacher as I found I could follow your instructions. Can’t thank you enough. not only have i learnt wonderful skills I have enjoyed being at home. Hope you keep safe. Thank you again.

    Hi Sage, thanks for the instructions, very helpful. Can you please tell me about the methylcellulose, is it the same as wallpaper paste or at least the cellulose paste sold as paper mache adhesive? Methylcellulose is described as archival, can you give me any hints on how to research why it has archival attributes.
    Sorry to pester and thanks for the video and your time.

    Please watch it again, there is paper on one side of the silk. The work takes place on the back side of the silk so that you will be able to use the silk as the cover material, which is what we are making here.
    Thanks for watching.

    Please notice my methyl cellulose in the video. I mix it 1 eighth of a cup of MC powder to 1 cup of water, let it rest for about 15 minutes. I tell you that 24 seconds into the video. You mixed a recipe for repairing tears in pages. It was not meant to stick in this paper backing application. I buy MC from Talas on line or New York Central Art supply.
    Thanks for watching and you will be more successful with the thicker mixture.

  • @tormalina1956
    @tormalina1956 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Why doesn't the silk get glued to your board during the gluing phase? It is because your paste is so thick. I want to try to make book cloth from a recycled silk kimono and the weave isn't too gauzy or open but I'd worry that pushing the paste through the silk would glue it to your board? Thanks for the tutorial as it was exactly what I was looking for.

    Hey Sage, great video! I have a question for you, that I didn't see in the comments below. This might be a good opportunity to make a mini "Q&A", so I'll just ask all the questions:
    1. What type of paper do you use, and what it's GSM?
    2. What type of glue do you use?
    3. What fabric do you use?
    Thanks a lot :)

    I have answered this question a number of times in response to other comments.The new google-YT seems to have deleted my responses. I am using Methyl Cellulose, you may be able to buy it as vinyl wallpaper paste. Please watch the video again, you will hear me tell how to mix it. 1/8 cup dry MC to 1 cup of water. Let it stand for 15 minutes. If your fabric is heavy weight, denim, linen you need only size the fabric and let it dry, then glue the boards (roller) instead of the fabric to apply.

    • @Ceropegia
      @Ceropegia  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Talas online has a lot of paper backed fabrics but I don't think they are silk. Some cottons and linens, the Asahi fabrics can look like silk but they are probably synthetics, and may have too much texture for your work. These fabrics are for bookbinding and box making. I don't think you will find paper backed silk in the general marketplace. However, you might look in the interior decorating world. There are many interesting wall papers available, grass cloth , metallics, etc. You just might find genuine silk there. If you need something specific, it's best that you make it yourself. Thanks for watching.

    Hi Sage,
    I am looking at making silk book cloth myself, so I purchased Lineco methyl cellulose powder and made my own. Though the paste turned out totally wet, unlike yours and it barely stuck once it was dry (I could rip it right off).
    The recipe I found was from a blog post entitled "Fix-it Friday : Using Methyl Cellulose in Bookbinding and Book Repair"
    So if you don't mind me asking..
    How is the tackiness of your paste? Where do you get your MC?

    • @Ceropegia
      @Ceropegia  10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I am using heavy weight Thai Mulberry. It is best to use a paper that is easy to handle and has little grain. a number of 'rice' papers will fit the bill.
      You can use wall paper paste if it says for vinyl wallpaper. Pastes now are usu8ally a type of methyl cellulose, all Ican say is try and see.

    Sage Reynolds, I have just discovered your videos tonight. Its like a trip to heaven! I love the way you work, your expertise show and the silk paper is beautiful. It seems the MC forms a water proof barrier or do you have to coat the book your made afterwards. I cannot wait for tomorrow to start on some paper and explore more of your videos. I watched the Japanese stab binding and would love to know what the inset piece was going to be. How long does the MC last after making such a thick batch?

    • @Ceropegia
      @Ceropegia  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you for watching and I hope you will enjoy watching more. The thin silk I use is mostly for boxes and invitations. I wouldn't recommend it for books you intend to use casually or daily. For books I would recommend using heavier silks and thicker more rustic weaves. With the heavier fabrics you can simply MC the back with a scraper and let it dry. the MC fills the weave and when you apply it to the boards or box , just apply the adhesive to the boards like i do in the box making videos. You may want to iron the silk before you cover as the MC will shrink and might make the fabric a bit wrinkley. I have done that with denim, heavy cottons and linen which was used on books and portfolios. The MC will last, in a closed container in the refrigerator about two weeks or so. when you see loose MC in rte container its time to make new. The MC does not form a water proof barrier on the outside of the fabric, most of these books are Special Books, that is to say they are not carried around like sketch books or journals; they would be albums, or things commemorating a special event or anniversary. However, if you are using heavy weight cotton or linen they should be perfectly durable for more intense use. There are many commercial paper backed silk like fabrics available from Talas on line for general use books. Thank you again for watching and have fun with your paper adventures.

    If you are doing a wall collage it might work as pieces. However, having covered walls in the past, I would say this is NOT appropriate material for that use. When you do the final wash/rubdown on a wall, the surface would be destroyed. The silk walls I know of were usually 'quilted' in place over a thin layer of padding. No paper backing required. I would look into that method for covering a wall, It will make the room quieter too.

    Thanks for sharing this. I'm currently working with some thin cotton fabric to make into book cloth. I've used PVA adhesive with thicker fabrics, like linen, but I'm having trouble with it either not adhering or seeping through this fabric. Do you think your technique using methyl cellulose would help with this?

    • @Ceropegia
      @Ceropegia  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +DHuurman Scan through the comments below. You will see similar situations to yours.
      You can use the Methyl Cellulose with cotton and in some cases you can simply size the fabric with MC, let it
      dry, iron if necessary and then apply it to glued boards. It all depends on the tightness of the weave of the cotton fabric. Thanks for watching!

  • @Ceropegia

Just a quick query. Would you be able to provide the grammage or gsm of the fabric backing paper that you use in this video.

    Hi Sage, great video. Had a question about materials. Is the binder's board the preferred method, could you also use something like a laminate sheet or fiberglass reinforced plastic sheet to prevent curling? Also, if not using silk, I'm using cotton linen fabric, like quilting fabric, is there any issue with the MC seeping through too much? Thanks, Ryan.

    • @Ceropegia
      @Ceropegia  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Ryan,
      I use the binder's board because I know the MC will stick to it. Laminates and fiberglass may not work reliably and they are expensive compared to the binder's board which can be reused again and again. as for the cotton linen blend if you are binding or covering with it you may have only to Squee Gee the MC on to the back and let it dry. I will contract a little but that can be ironed out. Then, when you cover the boards/box, glue out the the item (with a Roller) to be covered and apply the sized fabric. I have done that with raw silks and denims, if your fabric has a loose weave it will be better to paper back the fabric. The best thing to do is test the fabric with a 12" or 30cm square, do it twice and anything that can happen probably will with the test pieces. If the MC does come through the fabric you could adhere a sheet of acetate or mylar to the board (slightly smaller than the fabric) leaving the edges free to let the paper and MC adhere there. good luck and thanks for watching. (You might want to look at the glue and roller basics if you haven't already.)

      @@Ceropegia Thanks for the thoughtful reply. I've been using the Lineco PVA, I'm not sure if it's just my area in the high desert of California mountains, but it tends to dry way too fast to even apply the paper onto the fabric. Often times I have to lightly sponge it to rewet or apply it in half sections which leads to issues. So switching to the MC, I'm curious if that will allow me more time to work.

    Hi Sage,
    You lightly touched on something early in the film, but didn't go into much detail about it. I'm not really sure it matters with Silk, but for other cloths I'm sure it would have some bearing. Anyway, the stretching direction of cloth (weft) and the non stretchy direction (warp)... Does it matter which direction the cloth is, relative to the grain direction of the paper? Many thanks, and Excellent videos!!!

    • @Ceropegia
      @Ceropegia  9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      MCSEknight I mentioned the warp and weft because the cloth sometimes stretches as you squeegee the MC on to it so you would be aware of the cloth moving in one direction while you work. The oriental paper has no grain so it doesn't matter. Just a process/working awareness is to make it easier while you are spreading the MC.

      Please read through the comments, as for other papers I would try artist quality, light weight paper if you can't find the oriental papers I am using. Do a small test (30-40cm) before laying out a whole sheet, that way you can see the stretch and see what the drying time is like. Thanks for watching.

    Hey Sage, I noticed below in the comments you said you get your supplies at Talas and New York Central Art Supplies. New York Central was my Go-to but unfortunately they closed down this year. Do you mainly use Talas now or did you happen to find an alternative supply store?

    • @Ceropegia
      @Ceropegia  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +redmoon4eva I was at New York Central two days ago, they have not closed down, just sold the warehouse. Renovations of the original store are under way and you can still get what you need from the store. You may have to call ahead as the space is smaller. My work has moved almost entirely from paper to metal and my suppliers now are on 47th street for a different range of materials. However, when I need paint, gouache and paper I still go to New York Central. Many of the art suppliers in NYC have gone, Pearl Paint, the Utrecht on B'way near the Strand and a few other small dealers have gone, but Central is still there. I've never found an alternative to that store that has met my needs for about 40 years. Give them a call. Thanks for watching.

    Where did you buy your big roller?

    • @Ceropegia
      @Ceropegia  10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I've had the roller since I was a printmaking major in College, more than 40 years. You should be able to find one where professional printmaking tools are sold. I checked prices about a year ago and was shocked at how much it costs now for a similar item. However, it is worth the price if you are doing a lot of binding , especially for case making. It takes a lot of the labor out of 'rubbing down' book cloth, also for laminating paper and cloth and, of course, paper backing silks. Thanks for watching.

      @Ceropegia  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      In this video I am using Thai Mulberry heavyweight, you can use most medium to heavyweight oriental paper. I used to use Mingei but that paper has become too expensive. Paper like Hosho should work as well, Look to see what is available to you both for usability and cost. Thanks for watching.

  • @brigitteandphilliphawley9073

    Would you tell

    • @Ceropegia
      @Ceropegia  8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      if you read the other comments you will see that I have said it is Thai mulberry paper, heavy weight, there is no GSM. Sorry it seems unclear in the video. You can use most smooth, oriental or 'rice' papers as long as they have no texture that will show up on drying. I have used moriki but that has become too expensive. The mulberry is a good paper to use and not too expensive. Good luck and thanks for watching.

    • @Ceropegia
      @Ceropegia  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I am using methyl cellulose, wheat paste is too wet and stains the fabric. Thanks for watching.

  • @Ceropegia
    @Ceropegia  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have answered this question a number of times in response to other comments.The new google-YT seems to have deleted my responses. I am using Methyl Cellulose, you may be able to buy it as vinyl wallpaper paste. Please watch the video again, you will hear me tell how to mix it. 1/8 cup dry MC to 1 cup of water. Let it stand for 15 minutes. If your fabric is heavy weight, denim, linen you need only size the fabric and let it dry, then glue the boards (roller) instead of the fabric to apply.
