(Bookbinding) Making leather journal Book

[@MorningNightingale]

"The Art Of Bookbinding" that's definitely something worth watching and getting interested in. The beauty of craftsmanship is incontrovertible. Your videos are one of those rare types I always watch from the first second to the very last. Thank you for this one, and I hope to see another in the future.

Beautiful work! It's nice to see things still being handmade in our mass-produced, ultra-automated world.

[@dwolfe2907]

Your videos inspired me to make my own leather book - and I've already made 3, although very crude. Thanks! You started me on an interesting journey~

[@adeelsbinderypenart]

Thanks D Wolf! I myself learned by looking at others how they made books it took time but it is worth it and it is great fun. Regards Adeel

[@OlivierDeSillegue]

@@adeelsbinderypenart May I please ask if you made your own bookbinding tools, or did you buy them from somewhere? Thanks in advance!

[@adeelsbinderypenart]

In the beginning, I made my own tools, but over time I have bought tools. Kind regards

the pages are blank, somethings you don't want to forget. Looks like a great craft hobby.

Absolutely beautiful. Went to find out if you have a shop as soon as I finished the video and learned that you do indeed. Best of luck with your move into a new workshop-I hope to see your Etsy back up and running so I can take a proper look!

Absolutely fantastic to witness the creation of such a work. These books have a real SOUL. Honor to those who still create them and instill this essence in them.

Beautiful Work, have you considered making a proper tutorial, many people like to make it a hobby but lack guidance.

[@adeelsbinderypenart]

Many thanks i will try my best :)

[@blackberryjelee]

@@adeelsbinderypenart Please make a full tutorial! I've wanted to make my own tome forever and all the ones I've found leave out big details, or are non-functional display pieces.

[@SomeoneYouKnow2671]

For some of the steps, the KZbin channel Sea Lemon might be a good place to look. I'm planning on binding a few books myself and was searching for good tutorials here, and found some from her which seem useful.

[@SomeoneYouKnow2671]

@@blackberryjelee 'DAS Bookbinding' or 'Sea Lemon' might be good sources for tutorials. I just discovered them while searching for good bookbinding tutorials.

[@Soul_Watcher]

sea Lemin is helpful in many things. However, with some of thie big things like where to buy your paper stock, no. I Do t want to buy my paper from Michael’s and rip the paper out, etc. I need and want large amounts of different kinds of paper to make fountain pen journals for myself that will last throughout time to pass down. I can’t use thick paper with fountain pens either. Also again. I need large amounts and large pieces to foodl Them correctly to get sizes A5 at the end, or any other size I might want to make, so that at the end the grain of the paper is running in the right direction. I’ve already bound three books only to figure out the grain was in the wrong direction and have ruined my Tomoe River paper that they do not make any longer. I’m very angry about that. I was given the wrong instructions by someone on the internet about this issue specifically and ruined it all. They are already sewn and glued. And the paper is waved and terrible. I haven’t moved in yet because idk what I can do. On another note, I also need to know the big things. Like that. And we’re to get the best cover sheets. I also bought the wrong paper for that. Too thick I think. And the devices. I can’t afford the large wood devices at this point since I’ve spent it all in tools and everything else. Now I’m stuck. Was attempting to make my own devices and they gave me some terrible wood that I cannot work with because I do not have the tools to plain it and fix warped wood. So I’m not stuck. I do wish someone would tell those of us that want to do this the right way, and for the long haul, where to get the paper we need. Without that I get nowhere. I wish you luck in your indescribable. If you have any other questions I may be able to help you since I’m in deep myself with some of the tools and what’s good to use, etc. Take care. So that’s my problem.

[@junemacare5184]

You are truly a master at book making!

[@TheLinkmaster001]

This is beautiful work. I am attempting to start this as a hobby, and your work is giving me a lot of ideas.

[@TheLinkmaster001]

I don't know if you'll see this now, but I figure I might as well give it a shot. How do you apply the gold leaf? I've been experimenting, but I haven't gotten anything to work yet.

[@maineiacts]

Don't you have to apply ' size' ( A tacky substance) to help adhere the gold leaf ( real) and then burnish it..? I recommend looking for videos on how to apply gold leaf go leather bookmaking..? I assume that was what Steel applied to the surface in stabbing with what looked like cotton wad or cloth? Such amazing, time dedicated fantastic work!! You could have special leather stamp( s) made with a title and made by etc to gold leaf..? Also, looked like he heated up those tooling stamps which gives another idea of " wood burning design after you draw it on? Smelly maybe, but looks cool....I've never done it only seen it....or embossing I'm thinking is a better term.. Much Success....Beautiful craft skill to learn and command...Now that small book binding/ repair shops seem to be fading away but maybe now will be reborn!!? 👍🙋🏻‍♀️🇺🇸

I just found this and I found it very interesting. This is a beautiful book. Would you consider doing a step-by-step tutorial of how you sewed the pages together? I'm assuming that you used the saw to make all the holes at once. If it is, then it is genius. So much easier than poking them one by one.

[@maineiacts]

Hello From owa USA!! I Admire your videos!!! I am an amateur journal maker using recylced, and printer paper.. But U am Very INSPIRED by your Skills!! Love your tools and binding process equipment!! I love the look of leather, but would rather use facsimile... Do you draw at all ( illustrate) I do, so I thought it was time to better organize my doodles and ideas into jouenal/ book fiorm to keep track of all my random sketching and patterns. Looking forward to seeing more of your incredible art. Just visited your Study sutr... May you move to a new ace help you create more, and be happy as well as successful!! Thank You!! Warm Regards!- Mindi🙋🏻‍♀️🇺🇸

[@benadibasarah6131]

hello, between the moment when you do the rounding with the hammer blow and the moment of weaving the edgeband you put the plates to make the rigid part of the cover but you did not show how to fix them. can you tell me how you put them on please?

As someone who journals daily, this is exactly the one of a kind handmade book I have been searching for with no luck. I am so excited I stumbled across your channel tonight. Curious-do you take orders or simply put an item up for sale on Etsy once you have completed it? I clicked on the link but since the items have sold I couldn’t get pricing information. I know each item is unique and probably varies in cost with materials used, but could you please share an average cost for journals and also pens? Thank you so much!

[@adeelsbinderypenart]

Hey! You can order via etsy by writing to me there, it will be easier. you get my link here:www.etsy.com/se-en/shop/AdeelsBinderyPenArt?ref=profile_header Regards Adeel

[@Soul_Watcher]

Hello. I’ve just come across your channel just now and have subbed. I see all I need here to know I want to watch you do your craft. I myself are starting down the road on my bookbinding journey. A little late but better than never. I am stalled at where to buy the large pieces of paper in a larger amount so that when I fold it down to get to say A5 size, the grain will be in the right direction. I so now want to buy books from the store and rebind them. That’s not where I’m at. I’m looking to go the whole way. So I was wondering how to get what one needs for paper and the right large sheets to fold yourself to make them whatever size you need and do that correctly? I’ve been all over the internet for 6 months and have found nothing. Either that want you to buy thousands of dollars of one kind of paper or they don’t sell anything you might be able to use. As in pre-cut paper that is the wrong size. Is there someone or many out there to get the right paper from? I’m at a dead end at this point? I’m also stalled because I need to make the devices you have to skive the paper endges and also to hold the book block to glue, etc. Without that I can’t bind the paper I do have because it’s very thin 52gsm paper and it moves all over the place. I don’t have the garage tools to make perfect devices myself. Nothing. What do you suggest? Thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing from you soon. Take care.

Great work, beautifully done! I noticed your plough is not the same as your press. Did you buy the pack that is originally sold with this press and later changed the plough or you bought them separately?

[@adeelsbinderypenart]

Hey! I have seen your pressure from your video we have from the same place but yours is a little more expensive. The plough on my video I bought separately from olive and oak. I am used to that type because the knife blade is long and I can adjust the length. Regards Adeel

[@bookshelfiv2537]

@@adeelsbinderypenart I bought the plough and the press together and I am somewhat unhappy with the plough. No matter how tight I screw the blade it always trims the paper at an angle

Wie viel kostet das Buch?

[@sigmasinc.2658]

I was wondering if you had any tips for someone who wants to do this at a hobbyist level, A lot of your equipment looks to be custom made and your techniques seem advanced to me at least, so I'm not sure if this is something you'd be able to do without investing a lot of resources into it at the start. Sorry if that seems like a childish sort of view, I know craftsmen take pride in the hard work and practice they put into their products. I'm just really interested in it but don't have the capital to get all the things I see you using. I managed to make a small booklet when I was younger with a sewing needle and folded paper that was a few pages but that's all I could really manage since I poked out each hole individually with the needle to sew the pages together.
