📝 Have you written a book? My life goal is to be a published author and make a living from writing and I am using this year to gain experience, build up a portfolio and work on a book with my agent. I have just finished the final draft of that book, as you can see in this video. I did self-publish a book about bullying when I was seventeen which is available on Amazon (amzn.to/3mdJKLm), but I'm slightly embarrassed by it now!
🎃 Do you have merch? I don't have merch in the traditional sense (I can't imagine selling something with my face or name on haha!), but I do have a stationery company where I sell planners for students. These are all designed with students in mind and follow models which I've used when planning my studying. Our products are printed in pastel colours on recycled paper: bit.ly/3wgsR85
🍵 What's your favourite tea? That's a REALLY hard one, but I think I'd have to say the B&B Chocolate Digestive Tea: bird-and-blend.... (affiliate link)

That's so cool! Welcome to the community!🎉 As a trained bookbinder myself, I have some tips for you: - try putting the glue on the end paper instead of on the book block and the covers - glue the gauze only to the back of the block at first. Only paste the rest of it down when glueing on the boards - when covering the boards, put the glue on the cloth (works best with a big brush or a paint roller) - try not glueing on the spine of the cover to create a hollow back - most casebound books have one and it will be much easier to open the book. If you don't like that you can look into the spine, you can use the endpaper paper instead of masking tape to make it look prettier. Have fun experimenting!

@@mollyoxy the gauze along with the endpapers connects the book block and the cover. It is especially important when doing a hollow back, to connect the spine to the cover. When not using a pre-bound book block, it also helps with stabilizing the glue binding.

Hey, this might be weird but do you mind telling me how you measure the space between the book boards? In every video I’ve ever watched, there is an space between the front and middle piece of book boards, also between back and middle one. I would like to start rebinding my books but don’t know where to start

Every Bookbinder has that box that hides all the first attempts and learning books. I made the horrendous mistakes of learning on my good books and ruined them, after 32 years of binding I still haven't got around to fixing them...Happy Binding...

@ghost8974
@ghost8974 Год назад
also! for the endpaper and book board, it’s good to use ‘short grain’ paper, where the grain direction runs parallel with the spine. this helps to prevent warping when glue is applied. (not sure if that makes sense but i’m sure other people can explain it better than i can)
