PLEASE show your design process for the cover/spine art it’s the only place I’m hitting a creative wall

Ugh I love it so much!! I’ve been going down the rebinding rabbit hole and trying to convince myself that I don’t need another hobby 😅😂

Do it! I’ve been having a blast trying it out. I’ve been really happy with the results. A bit of start up costs, but I got quite a bit off Temu (which helps). Don’t cheap out on the chipboard, bookcloth or vinyl though.

Please look up ugh in a dictionary, it's an expression of disgust! 'Ooh' would be more appropriate 😊 Book binding is a great hobby, go down the rabbit hole and have fun.

@bradduncan1311 Ай бұрын

would love to see a video showing how you designed the cover/spine art, and discuss your cutting machine and why you chose that one. and like others, our videos have been some of the best i’ve found. thank you so much!

I went to find the video on how you make your custom vinyls with the cricket and just realized you're a brand new channel. THIS IS SO CRAZY HELPFUL!!! I'm currently trying to learn news ways to continue this hobby and your videos have been insanely helpful. You give really good explanations for your process and make it really easy to follow along. I would LOVE to see a video of how you come up with/produce the custom vinyls and I've already hit the bell to be notified when you drop it. Thank you so much for making these videos, I hope you continue to grow your channel and continue releasing!!

Your videos are so helpful! I'm looking forward to seeing how you design your covers since I also have a Silhouette machine. I'm currently designing a cover for a rebind but I'm having a hard time figuring out the right size for lines and borders. It'll be super helpful to see how someone else does it. Thanks for all these videos and your tips!

Beautifully explained. A much better finish than the junk journal book binding I have watched. I am a Harry Potter fan so would love the prize.

@louthelost Ай бұрын

Very cool and useful, thank you! I'd be very interested to see more about how you designed and cut the cover designs. I've just found a cricut at a library in my city I can use (after making a number of books without titles on them) and I'm kinda nervous about that whole process, but will be attempting to try it out soon!

@Jimmy.1979 Ай бұрын

Great video! I love how it's in real time and you explain all the steps. I'm really new at this hobby and find this very useful! Keep up the great work! I've never seen heat transfer vinyl! That's amazing! My wife has all the cricut stuff! This is a game changer!

Out of curiosity have you considered permanent adhesive vinyl instead of HTV if remelting the glue is a concern?

@janninedeboer8850 2 ай бұрын

Thankyou, thankyou. Best explanation. My books pull apart from the spine. Am I not leaving enough room between covers and spine?

This video is insanely helpful! I am struggling with adjusting the measurements to the t-spacer I currently have which is only 5mm as I admittedly did not do a lot of research before I started buying tools... Do you have any suggestions on the width adjustments I could make to maintain about 3mm overhang with zero to minimal trimming?

If you’re binding a really thick book do you recommend making the hinges bigger?

@SenSenChan 2 ай бұрын

The measurement are so helpfull! What i didnt get though was that the board was 1.8 mm thick, so why do you need to add 3mm to the spine? I didnt get how it went from 1.8 to 3 mm

@reaprince Ай бұрын

You need to do 1.8 twice, since you have a board on each side. That adds to 3.6 mm and she decided to round it down to 3mm
