Thank you so much for such a detailed explanation. I appreciate how exact and clean you work. I can't seem to finish a session without sticky fingers 😂😂. Hope you are doing well. I noticed that it's been a while since you posted new videos. I am enjoying watching the back catalogue. Such a treasure trove. Thank you so much, again.

Developing the "eye" to cut corners is a great skill and saves so much time. The rule of 1.5 x board thickness works well. If unsure bend the uncut cloth up at the corner to reassure yourself that the cloth once cut will go over the board. Keep well, stay safe

I always over-cut and test my mitres by folding the cloth over dry first. If using commercial paper-backed bookcloth this will leave folds in the backing that help decide where to cut.If you're working with loose-weave fabrics then be extra generous because of the risk of fraying and the potential need to pull threads away for a tidy finish.

Yep, tab corners are great for big thick springbacks.

I use a variant of the tab method: the tab is simply the cut triangular part that usually would be folded in: it decreases the bulkyness of the confection, it holds the material put and reduces the chances of fraying and it works on most materials.

Thanks! I've been using the little triangle tab for vellum. As you say less bulk to show through. All the best, Darryn

Первый и третий варианты более аккуратные. Второй имеет пухлые углы. Но во втором варианте углы более защищены от воздействия внешних факторов. Для записной книжки спутника больше всего подходит именно второй вариант. Для укрепления углы можно нагреть феном, после чего зажать между двумя не агдезирующими поверхностями. Это уберет припухлость углов. Снимите напряжением полимера и скачет его там где он соприкасается сам с собой. Перед использованием метода лучше попрактиковаться на пробирке.

seems like you could eliminate the bulk altogether on the tab method by cutting an additional strip of "tab" to fill in along that entire edge.

I presume the library corner can also be used in paper covers? I plan to use elephant hide type paper which I may print on a marbled paper pattern.

Howdy, may I ask what kind of brush is it that you are using to spread the glue? I've never seen the tongue tab before. It does make for a nice corner on thick boards.

That corner is the standard for vellum too, or a slight variation. I'm not sure the brush is made any more. I bought it from Hewits originally, but it's a german made brush. www.hewitonline.com/Wooden_Paste_Brushes_p/br-090.htm Ciao, DAS

I buy large sheets which I cut down to standard sizes with a big board shear. Before I had the board shear I just used my trusty Olfa knife. The large sheets aren't very expensive and you get lots of book covers from a few sheets. In US I would get it from Talas and in the UK Hewits.

Can it be use for rounded corner?
@DASBookbinding Жыл бұрын
Rounded corners on boards, if large enough, are probably best pleated. But if they aren't too large the universal (aka library) corner can work.
