Man, what a perfect tutorial. No step was missing. Everything was easy to see. I watched it just out of curiosity. Perfect!

For a long time I wanted to bind a book for myself, but I didn't think that skills would be this easy to learn. I was wrong! Congratulations on your novel.

EXACTLY what I wanted to know--thank you! I want to print and put together the first part of my novel to physically get eyes and hands on, that would give me confidence to edit and finish the rest. I'll check out your work. 😀

I searched everywhere for a toturial like this. Thank you so much. This was exactly what I needed. 😊

Best paperback book making by hand I have seen thus far. Makes me want to try just once more.

You are so good at teaching. I went here to get some Python stuff and I watched this whole video. Very interesting and well explained. Thanks.

never thought i would be interested in this, him explaning makes anything interesting

The best tutorial I have seen, I will take it into account.

Beautiful work, the book looks so good! Thank you for this video!

This looks very professional and you used such basic equipment! Thanks for teaching this, this is fantastic

This is just what I was looking for. You have explained it very comprehensively. Great tutorial. Thanks

This is so much better. The only investment I need is a good stack cutter. The tutorial is very easy to follow! Thank you!!

Very educational...didnt know with just a few tools it can be this simple and straight forward...nice work

That was a wonderful demonstration, thank you. You made it simple to understand

this seems much more easier than expected. i will try this for sure for my book 'things i do wrong in python' 🤣 thx mate

WOW... EXCELLENT VIDEO... AMAZING. I have been waiting for 20 Years for this video. I have so many manuscripts waiting to be published... and knowing that somehow I could do my own bookbinding some day... reason being, I had taken my manuscript to a printer/publisher in a tiny town in New Mexico... Lincoln County, New Mexico... (hint hint) "Billy the Kid" Country. I have written a book on BTK... and was told NOT to go to this certain said publisher, because they were known to "Sell out the backdoor" because they would use the ISBN # of the book... I didn't believe it... so I went to this printer/publisher... but I wanted to do the binding on my book, because the first 50 books would be signed & number with leather book cover and gold lettering. The printer insisted on buying the ISBN #... and would NOT print my manuscript if they could not also have the cover. She really wanted to print and publish my manuscript on Billy the Kid.HUM... I guess a few people were saying had to be true. I told the owner of the printing company what I had heard (still not wanting to believe it)... and that I would not let her print and publish my book... The look on the ladies face was a tell-tale sign, a few months later, she closed her business and moved out of town. Since then, I have written a few more books (manuscripts)... knowing I couldn't do it justice because I only knew of the old method of book binding and not having a machine to CUT the paper... UNTIL TODAY... YOUR VIDEO... has changed my life. I love the way you did this book. 11:44... (Be still my heart) ... Where did you get that small paper cutter... That is Unreal... That is a Game Changer.... This video... YOU are a GOD-Send... I have tears in my eyes... so happy. Thank you with all my heart for making this video...

Very helpful, and very nice result. That is a professional looking book not unlike and better than many at the bookstores.

Exactly what I was looking for. Came up on KZfaq recommendation, probably because I looked up a few videos on binding yesterday. Those didn't show what I was looking for, this one did. Thanks.

Finally, just what i’m looking for

Thanks for the video Sebastiaan. You did a great job and the book came out perfect. Good luck with your writing!! You're doing wonderfull.

Brilliant video. Thanks for this, I'm going to try it out myself. Good stuff!

This is fantastic. Thank you for uploading!

Wow. Spectacular tutorial! Thanks!

Very clear and easy to follow, thank you!

Beautiful book, very professional looking!

Thanks for the varnish trick!

Very nice work. Thanks for sharing your experiences!

you displayed everything i needed to see and know, thankyou

Wow! So neatly done!

Thanks so much for this!!!! I recent made a compilation of my favorite short stories by friends, etc. this worked perfectly!!!! I had some trial and error when printing it though.

Thank you! Excellent work and tutorial

Excellent tutorial. Thank you so much!!!!♥

This is actually helpful. Thank you so much.💫

I think the pages are only kept by the glue isn't strong. The guillotine is what really wraps this up so nice because the book has super straight edges and it all comes together as professional.

This was fantastic. Thank you so much for it!

Amazing tutorial. Great work. Respect

Very informative…you’ve educated me with the fact you can use a type of paper which book printers use…

Thanks for this. Im making a textbook and going to be using this approach.

Another reason I love this video... is being able to print on the paper I want. I want to use Parchment paper for the first 50 books on my Billy the Kid book... Leather binding with Gold leather... making it look like it (book) was in 1888...

Excellent tutorial. Thank you very much

Ty for this information. I'm starting to do my own line of novels and this info will be a big help. I plan to try and make my own publishing brand. Thanks for all the help

Brother...I am from India..I just watched your video.. It's amazing... Yours honest efforts will help me and many more like me...love you a lot.. hope you will continue such great efforts ❤️❤️

Wow, this is amazing!

Thank you so much. I jump to different publishers just to publish my books too. But this give me idea to just self-publish my books. Literally. 😆

This is amazing. You are a wonderful teacher. I appreciate you explaining the four folds so the cover opens easily. Thank you so much my dear 😘 ❤

Thank you so much for this great video!

Congratulation on your book, excellent covetbook & tutorial, thank you for sharing your skills.

i came to widen my knowledge about creating books,.... since i wanted to print online web novels for me to read since it had over 20000 pages,... thank you,... i learned something new,... ☺☺

This was interesting to learn about!

Congratulations on your book! Thank you for taking the time out to share a skill that you have with others; it is very much appreciated.

This is amazing! Thanks a lot!

Outstanding!

Wow, awesome tutorial, by far the best one I've seen on this topic!!! 😍 You are an excellent teacher, clear and precise!! Just a question, how did you format the words of your story on the paper like an actual book??

liked and subscribed ! very similar method to how I am binding my books , it's interesting that we use the same tools , but the back cover is new for me , Thank you for sharing !

I appreciate this. Idk how you only have less than 250 likes yet over 4500 people watched this video. Good work and keep it up!

Thank you, very nice tutorial.

welldone, good work. 5 star for you. keep it up

Mooie methode; Bedankt voor de uiteenzetting!

Watch the IRS take this as an admission of guilt. Love what you did here, this is going to help me immensely!

Thank you for the video, I'm planning to make my own books too rather than spending over 20$ per book. this should help me lot, thnx aagain.

Impressive. I want to print my pdfs now

This is so cool.

This is amazing!! Definitely going to try this than sewing the signatures together. Would you say there is a page limit to try glueing the spine?

Merci Beaucoup!! Tres' bien.😀💛👏💛👏☝💃🚤

Great job!

Very nice and fancy work

goede tutorial mooi uitgelegd :)

Not sure where i will find the papercut machine but im definetely doing this. Thank you.

I got my answers, Thank you very much

thank you!

I need more of this❤❤❤

I've been following your tutorials lately, it's been great learnign how to program in OpenSesame, mostly because of the online experimentation option. I was so surprised when I saw this tutorial that I coulnd't help myself but to comment. I'm a big fan of short stories and bookbinding, I'm definitely trying this method! Also, I would like to know if there is a digital format option for purchasing these stories, as I'd be really happy to read them! It was fun and unexpected to see so many of the things I enjoy in one place! Thank you so much for all your tutorials! They allowed us (the staff at the lab) and our students to run experiments even without access to our lab during the pandemic, and now it made me want to try and print my very own book! Greetings from México!

This is a great tutorial. I never would've guessed it would be so easy. I've got a book I want to bind, but I didn't realize I could do it myself until I stumbled across this. As an aspiring writer, this was very helpful! Thank you!

thank you sir

Very nice! 👍

thank you for making this tutorial. Nice and simple, and does not require sewing (not my greatest skill). Is it possible to use the same method for a hardcover book?

Thank you motivate me...

Great video 🌷

Hardstikke mooi!

Loooove it!! 😍😍😍

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!

Thank u so much ☺️

Woooow Thank Youuu!

Hi!! This sounds silly but could you show us a bit more about the cover specifically and how you printed it? I have a laserjet home printer but last time I tried to print on something like cardstock (which weighs less than the paper you’re using for your cover) it didn’t work and I wasted a LOT of toner. I’d just love to see that process because I bind hardcover and paperback books and have yet to find a solution for this.

Thank you for the video. I am making the book of 1 and 2 Samuel into novel format with no verse numbers and the actual names of God that are used in it, so that I can just sit by the fire and read it like a novel rather than like a textbook. After that I want to do this with Genesis. I have never bookbinded before, so I appreciate the info 😊

Best video.

Thank you. Great video. Please can you leave a list of the tools, the netting for the spine. What type of a trimmer is that?

Thanks a lot

perfect!

What is the weight of the book pages paper? I know you mentioned the size is an A4 but I have had trouble finding a good paper for the book pages themselves. This was such a helpful, straight to the point tutorial - I'm so excited to make my first one!

Thanks so much for the tutorial. What is the name of the cutting machine so I can buy one?
