    Always nice to see the maker behind the camera and hear him talk. Organizing is such a cumbersome task, but so satisfying also. You did quite a transformation there. Also liked the bloopers! 😛

    I absolutely love seeing the bindery come back to life! It inspired me to keep going with organizing my craft area so I can get to working on making a book that I’ve been wanting to do for over a year now. Great to see the man behind the beautiful books you create. I never knew so much went into creating a book. You make the step by step process in your previous videos easy to understand and adapt to the specific needs of any book. Thank you for this video and I look forward to seeing more of your videos.

    Hi Dennis! I just watched you packing video. And I must say that I have really missed your videos. I spent most of this summer doing maintenance on our 300 year old house, so I my own channel got very little love this fall. Can I say that I really appreciate the way you edit your videos, the lighting and camera angles. And I absolutely love your non-sensational presentation style. By the looks of things you are a proficient woodworker as well, which is really cool, as that I my hobby :D Fun bloopers as well. "Hello everybody!"

    Well that certainly explains where you were all that time - working yourself to a frazzle! As a highly dis-organized slob I'm always appreciative of shop tours - I need all the inspiration I can get on how to get at least a semblance of order into my 'hobby' area.
    What size are your two flatfile cabinets? I've been keeping an eye out for any second hand ones near me but nothing within my budget so far so I'm considering making my own but as usual stuck on the first hurdle - what size to make it. Once I get that sorted I can start looking at benches and other stuff.

    • @FourKeysBookArts
      @FourKeysBookArts ปีที่แล้ว

      I'll have to check the dimensions of the file cabinets, but I do know that both are somewhat smaller than the majority I've seen, especially the green one. I can't quite fit two sheets of my marbled paper side-by-side in the larger one, (each sheet is 50x65 cm to give some idea) which is a bit annoying, but they are still the very thing for paper storage, and they fill up fast!
