This video came out right after I spent a day failing to make a slip case, but now I'm ready to lick my wounds and try again.

What the hell does "lick my wound" mean? This isn't a real phrase abd it's weird, don't try to sound strong cause you fail at it miserably

Absolutely adored the stop-motion animation. I know that's a pain to do, but it added such a beautiful touch :) Just please don't feel pressured to add it to every video

I worked out how to do it some time ago. I have to remember it's an option occasionally when I have no other B roll:)

Much appreciated. Your clarity of demonstration and the logical, disciplined and common sense approach to the work and to teaching are second to none. Animating skills, too! The use of card to stabilize and reinforce the box wall attachment shows how deceptively simple a masterful technique can be. Thank you!

I only do cases for personal use and that's when I can't find one in the right side. But you make me thinking about the thickness of the paper. It make sense. Especially if you do cases or boxes for a special purpose. Thanks

I'm so going to do this for my favorite books! Thank you very much for the skillful lesson! Also that animation at the start was some genuine talent- it's deceptively difficult to make such a clean and smooth sequence!

Great video as always! I’ve been avoiding making slipcases since i started binding books, but i definitely want to give it a shot now! You definitely make it look so easy and it motivates me to take action! Thanks as always Darryn :)

14:53 I presume that to make the case strongererer you make sure that the lining card overlaps the previous joints? 😊

@JRCSalter 5 ай бұрын

Most commercial slipcases have thinner side walls. Presumably, this is to make it easier to remove the book. But having thick side walls would make it more sturdier. Have you experimented with different thickness walls, and is there any reason you would prefer one over the other?

@DASBookbinding 5 ай бұрын

No, I would say many commercial slipcases are thinner because they are folded and to save money. Hand binding is about quality and I will always go with the individual piece construction with thicker walls. But maybe if I'm doing a job for 10 slipcases I might make them folded if this is what the client wants. I will do a video on this in the future to show how these are done. Maybe you want to recreate a historical example.

I think I know what you mean. It's a slipcase with a tray in it. There is lot of variations possible and I not sure the internet is ready for the draw box channel:)

I have what might be an odd question: Where did you get those magnetic corner squares, and do you know if I can get them in the U.S.? I build a lot of chipboard (greyboard) boxes for board games and components, and those squares would be SUPER useful for me. Thank you for this video!

4:00 - I noticed a pot with a brush poking out of it in the top left corner of the screen. Is that just a put with water to stop the brush drying out?

@DASBookbinding 5 ай бұрын

Stops the water evaporating. I climate control the bindery. No need to add more moisture to the air.

@2200chuck 5 ай бұрын

Thank you. I do have one question. Ho long do you leave things in the press?

@DASBookbinding 5 ай бұрын

10 minutes is probably enough. I often take breaks at these points and they might stay in for an hour or over night.

@ChikitokaChan 4 ай бұрын

Does anyone know why my board still warps a bit? For context, I use 2.5mm thick binder's board. I have the papers going with the grain (top to bottom) and i allow them to press for 10 mins minimum between gluing. They still come out slightly warped, making it difficult to glue everything together. Any help would be appreciated!

I've been thinking about making slipcases for my books and sketchbooks recently, this video is enlightening. I still find the process intimidating but I also feel like I could give it a try. What about making one slipcase for several books, like if you have a trilogy of books and you want to keep them together ? Would it be possible to make a bigger slipcase with "walls" inside to separate the books from each other ? Would it still protect the books just as well ?

@2103Chatto 4 ай бұрын

If you wanted to cut thumb holes/notches into a slipcase, how would you do it? I'm with Johnson, but a lot of my projects are for liturgical books which nearly always have a 'notched' slipcase, and I've been asked to do them a few times.

@DASBookbinding 4 ай бұрын

I'm going to use a 20mm leather hole punch. In commercial binderies they used to have pneumatic powered devices for making big holes like that, and paper drills for smaller holes.

Great video, as always. Question fir a future video: Do you ever use, or recommend using, a "waterproof" type of paper for the slipcase exterior, such as vinyl-covered papers, or the like? Does it make sense to do so?

@DASBookbinding 5 ай бұрын

The covering material I'm going to use is Arbelave buckram bookcloth which is water resistant.

Do you have any experience with concave spines like James Brockman demonstrates here? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jNihecajrcqsmXU.html I couldn't find a video on your channel about it and I have a friend asking me about concave spines but I've never attempted it.

@DASBookbinding 5 ай бұрын

There is a very detailed article by Jim in The New Bookbinder (or maybe just The Bookbinder), if you want to do one. I think the idea goes back to the work of Roger Powell on The Book of Kells. Great work for that, but I find it a bit ugly for modern books. Not something I'm in a rush to explore. Sorry.
