(Bookbinding) Making Leather journal Book 

I was thinking the same thing. I am not a writer either I just love books. This one is a work of art.

But now I’m interested to read what you write.

@@UliTroyo Imagine like 500 years from now, we're going through some famous guy's stuff and we find a journal, looking through it we see their thoughts on the events going on around them and philosophical stuff, its all well and good until we find a drawing of a meme and some random ass joke beside it.

@Tributary House Ltd. Actually, that couldn’t be further from the truth. I just write about my day. Sometimes I talk about what I think about what’s happening in the world, but I am as likely to talk about hemmorhoids. (spelling?). I am thinking about opening up today’s entry with how much I hate the new Mark Trail comic strip. The content hasn’t changed much from the last one, but now he has the “Don Johnson” didn’t bother to shave today look. I never liked the Don Johnson look. The men of my father’s generation shaved every day, had skin like finely tanned leather and smelled of Aqua Velva. The men of my own generation shaved in the shower once a week, no doubt whimpering to their razors “please don’t hurt me”. Anyway, as you can see, not profound at all.

@@colezen1 see below.

That would be like building an instrument and then hanging it on the wall. It’s a work of art in itself, but it isn’t complete until it is used. I guess the difference is that putting ink on paper is permanent. If you play sour notes on the musical instrument, at least they are ephemeral.

@@lkj974 i mean u could always write with a pencil :>

you'd better write your deepest darkest secrets in that book if you've got average/bad hand writing.

I understand how you feel, but that would turn it into a Fabergé Egg; pretty to look at, but nothing inside.

Ohmg...I feel you!

Modern style of things was developed to enable production of cheap, mass produced things. Mass production enabled much larger portion of population enjoy similar comforts which were previously only accessible to rich people. Books are just one example, cheaper, mass produced books enabled larger masses of people enjoy reading.

@@LPlFan81 Yes I know that, it's also the reason there's as much trash in the ocean as there is now. I didn't say it was pointless, I said it looked ugly and is very poorly made.

‘Well made things starting to get popular again’ Lol

@@flammabletoast5820 Did I word it in a weird way? sorry english isn't my first language.

@@jiji3750 not at all, it just seemed like a very bizarre statement i wanted to make fun of, but clearly you’re way too nice to make fun of, so im sorry, have a nice day 🙏🏼

You must also remember that everything was written by hand!

It wasn't luxury because there were dozens masters in your area and they were competing with each other. Now that we have mass productions, real bookbinders can jack up the price because their handwork are a rare skill. Same with handmade shoes.

@@vegeta1885 if he can make let’s say one book a day + materials , even with the minimum range without the price of the skills it’s still gonna be expensive because he has to make a living pay taxes and more

@@vegeta1885 siempre ha sido caro, para empezar, un animal debe morir para utilizar su piel en la encuadernación. Siguiente: el aprendizaje lleva tiempo (años) además las herramientas son valiosas y caras. Los maestros encuadernadores nunca hemos sido muchos, no lo banalices.

I wish that for you too!

@@colezen1 thank you!

Just work and you will get there, it's mostly technique and I'm pretty sure some schools are teaching artistry book binding. Good luck with that project.

I mean, you can start with what you have around you (including the leather). The tricky part in this is getting the smooth edges of the book...

I wish you the best of luck, I want to do it too..

Me, who’s currently going through “The Hobbit” at a snail’s pace: *Aw sh_t, here we go again*

Remember ber rabbit and his sebenty lebenty?

I'm playing Lord Of The Ring's Online while watching this video, what are the chances .

I THOUGHT THE SAME THING OMG

Thanks 😂❤

Most cats have no interest in literature. You rarely ever see a cat reading a book.

@@surreygeorge11 I’m afraid that mine might not go to collage... every time I ask him to read a book he looks away from me, doesn’t say a word.... he’s always out with his friends doing teenager stuff , and not once do I think I’ve seen him study.... he doesn’t even go to school anymore....

@@squidballs You may have to test for traces of catnip. Once they get into that, there's no reasoning with them.

@@surreygeorge11 I just got him tested... he came back positive....

it's easy to do with timecode and subtitle

It’s written in the book

@@conorvermeiren3534 🤣

I'm new here, so I haven't looked, but maybe there's an instruction video in this channel's videos. If not go over to Sea Lemon's channel. She shows several ways of doing binding, tools, etc and has updated more recent videos to reflect what she's learned through experience.

That's s lot of work Wendy

Yeah exactly, i have a notebook like this and i can't find anything worth to write in it 😁
