How to Print Your Book on a Budget! | Step by Step - Organize, Print, Bind, Cut

[@donnishacobble]

I gave up trying to make my book because it wasnt cost effective to print.. Bless you sis for not gate keeping.. you just re-alived my dream!!. thank you!!.. im subscribed... thinking of joining!!!.... woooooow!!!... Proud of my people!!!! you go sis!!!

[@BlueprintDIY]

@@donnishacobble This makes me so happy!!

[@2piecesnackbox]

I appreciate what she did too but gate keeping is not a bad thing. it keeps people from putting out BS vs quality work. THINK ABOUT IT LIKE THIS, IF EVERYONE CAN ENTER THE VAGINA, HOW CAN A FEMALE BE A QUALITY WOMAN ? SHE HAS TO GATE KEEP THE VAGINA SO SHE CAN FIND A HUSBAND. YOU GET WHAT IM SAYING

[@SweetnKind]

You can do it!!❤🎉

[@sassyd8738]

Me too had a hp printer went and bought it along with extra ink and it would never print the pages out right to the point I gave up then said come on now got to be a way now here I am 6 months later could have did the way everyone says just sent to amazon and publish but I was not done

[@pdalencour]

Same. This was outstanding. Definitely kudos on the gate keeping part. Simply none of that here.

[@TheScholarsGroup]

My search for book printing solutions has come to an end. I'm now ready to independently publish my book for my students. Love ❤ from India.

[@Thefreshlyanointed]

Thank you so much for not gatekeeping this info and freeing us who have been stuck wanting to do this for years but finding it far too expensive.

[@thetruthandnothingbutthetr6484]

What does gatekeeping mean ?

[@Thefreshlyanointed]

@ withholding info or charging an insane amount for it

[@thetruthandnothingbutthetr6484]

@ withholding info ? Do you think Coca-Cola should share its formula to help out other cola companies ? Do you think when pharmaceutical companies spend billions in research on a new drug they shouldn’t have rights to it ..they should have to share it freely with other pharmaceutical companies ? Do you think some people should work hard at learning things and acquiring knowledge and the people who do nothing should have free access to someone else’s hard work ?

[@Thefreshlyanointed]

@ I’ll put it to you like this I’m working on an how to draw book right now where I share my 32 years of experience. Experience that has landed my artwork into the hands of some well known people and places I’ve never even traveled to. Why? Because I love to see others win and when I’m dead and gone that info shouldn’t die with me. I’m not saying everyone has to be that person. I was simply saying I appreciate this content creator for doing just that. Helping others out when she didn’t have to.

You are an absolute Godsend! I was just thinking today about printing my own books and how I believe that it would be so much more economical. And here it is I come on KZbin and you are here! You are here explaining the easy way to do it now as opposed to the old school way that I knew how to do it. I'm talking about sewing it and all that old school stuff! I greatly appreciate you!🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤

Creating books in the format that’s works for your goal makes the process worthwhile. The process might be therapeutic. I’ve made books with the sewn in binding had no idea this method was available always a pleasure learning from your creative process. Thank you and have a beautiful week

[@susanbradshaw5746]

This is by far the best, most well-made video I’ve ever watched. The way you explained each and every step and shared so much helpful information about your business is so appreciated. And I will be needing a copy of this book for sure! My mom sewed all of our clothes for me and my 3 sisters when we were growing up, and then sewed costumes for us and her grandchildren. One of my younger sisters is blessed with excellent sewing and embroidery skills . I have wanted to learn for so long and even have my mom’s sewing machine. Thank you for sharing! 😊

[@mmarchani]

[@donnablumenberg6624]

I agree!

[@1sgooden]

Thank you for creating this excellent content and congratulations on your books! New subscriber here. This is exactly what I needed! Have been collecting family history from my father. The system we are using MyHeritage (you might want to see if they will sponsor you) has an option to create books BUT in order to transform them into something more than notebook pages I needed what you have given me here! I will be using what you have taught me to create gorgeous family history books. Thinking I will do them in smaller family books. I am so excited! Please check into getting them to sponsor you. You have no idea how much this helps and keeps costs down while creating family legacies! Thank you again! Be safe!

[@JakkiousEliot]

Wow, that was an amazing video. Thank you for sharing that. I used to work at an AMAZON POD, and everything that you just did, we just did on a larger scale. I never knew that this could actually be done in someone’s home exactly the way we did it at the facility, just on a smaller scale. You’re amazing.

[@Lonewolfster]

Okay I watched this video and I'm curious as to: 1) how much this costs per book (including machinery, pages, etc)--> your book and also the time to do a book (assuming you do several at once). I'm trying to assess POD vs something like this. Nonetheless, I LOVED this. This was absolutely delightful. I love that you literally handmake each book.

[@craftycub]

@BlueprintDIY they really are

[@cocdcy]

I got an "ink tank" printer where instead of having cartridges, you buy bottles of ink and fill up tanks in the printer. So far it's been great and the ink works out MUCH cheaper than cartridges. They are a bit more expensive but it's because they know they won't make the money back off you from ink Thank you for the awesome tutorial!
