Binding a Box The Sword Unlocks

Hello everyone,
Today, I will show you how I made a box for my father’s 60th birthday, this special box is locked with a miniature sword. The box contains a book, one chapter from Don Quixote visiting a printing shop.
My father and I have a private press called Even Hoshen specializing in creating books hand-bound in limited editions, accompanied by original works of art.
In this video, I am showing the process of designing and creating a box, from Idea to execution. You are welcome to join me in this wonderful journey to the world of books.
If you want to learn Bookbinding you are welcome to take my Skillshare classes.
I will take you step-by-step through the binding process with clear explanations and detailed shots to help you create your own special binding.

Kudos on pronouncing Cervantes' name _almost_ perfectly. I know several university profesor dudes who claim to be "experts" on his work, yet mangle his name by pronouncing it as if it were written in modern English. You are a whole level above those.

Thank you, I’m happy to hear that! Feel much better with my pronunciation 🙏

I t is a spacial moment when Idea becomes a reality. Thank you for watching

[@steveireland1860]

Ido, thanks so much for a couple of brilliant techniques, the needle positioning trick, a very good idea, just got to find some suitable fine needles with a handle here in the uk, but I particularly like how you put that small cut in when turning in the bookcloth on the boards, I like so many have just been pushing the small overlap triangle forward , not bad and I get really good results , but your method is so much better , an even sharper result. Many thanks for the great ideas !

[@idoAgassi]

Thank you Steve, I’m glad you picked up some new tricks, more to come… Thank you for being here 🙏

[@janeldryan7466]

Ido, could you please remind me what material your weights are made of? Do you recommend a particular dimension for the thickness and length of the weights? Thank you. Beautiful video.

[@idoAgassi]

Hi, they are made of Brass, I think the 2 by 2 cm I use the most. I would recommend 20 or 25 cm length for starters. Try to find leftovers in a metal shop Hope that helps
