Looking forward to seeing updates on your growth and progress as a binder.

Fascinating stuff. Thanks again!!

Great stuff! I'm excited for you about this new project and excited to see how you progress. I'm not generally what you would call a "crafty" person, but this idea has appealed to me for a while, also. No room or time to pursue it now, but I hope to sometime in the future.

This is something I'm interested in doing at some point, but haven't really researched it much yet. Look forward to seeing what you do. Great content for the channel, as always. Also, didn't realize you had some published books. That's awesome.

I also played around with rebinding books. The big problem with rebinding cheaper books is that the textblock usually has glued not sewn binding, so it will not open nicely. Also most paper is not acid free so it will get discolored after some years. Making your own textblock is far more complicated of course.

Really interesting content. I'd love to make my own slipcases (solander boxes would be even better). But my two attempts so far have been complete abortive failures.
