that is true but it is boring without music

My grandpa loves binding my books since ever, now I know how much time he wastes in me, and it makes me love him so much more :,

[@faaaa__]

It would take even linger if he sewed it like normal binding.

I don't know why, but there was something supremely satisfying in just watching this.

[@blackmarlin3166]

Once he brought out that perfectly shape blocks and that iron thingy I knew my book binding dream is crushed.

[@laughingmyassout3132]

bdusa just use some used straight wood or anything with a straight surface and then put a really big rock enough to hold the papers in.

[@manusigl]

You don't need any of those! I've been binding books in my tiny flat without tools just fine. Just use heavy books or smthg instead of the boards and clamps, it works exactly the same! You really just need the glue, paper, and cardboards if you want to make hardcovers (for paperbacks, just use cardstock). If you don't want to use cloth, use cardstock or regular paper for the cover (though the thinner your paper, the higher the possibility of getting wrinkles). I usually sew the signatures together before glueing them for extra security, there are plenty of tutorials on youtube if you want to do that.

[@AestheticYellow]

Those are clamps (which are cheap and can be found at any hardware store) could be replaced with a heavy object. The purpose of him using the clamps is to keep the paper aligned and from being malformed so there might be other solutions to it. Hope this helped!

[@Natushka91]

hey I bookbinded using heavy dictionaries and my notebook was so beautiful anyway :) just try it

[@greatexpectations9446]

It actually works great! Neats up the trimmed pages very nicely and doesn't take long.

It went WRRRRAAAAAAAHHHHHH

[@beckyanderson2504]

Loved that bit!

[@JuanGarcia-jr8yi]

I love the way you show a long and sometimes difficult process like this. You make it look easy. This video gives me the courage to try it. Thanks a lot.

[@mpregfics]

Looking at the final product of the sketchbook made me smile because, while you're showing us the blank pages, theres this sudden image of these amazing drawings going to occupy the pages. Im just so amazed, great job!

The quiet stillness of your video was almost like meditation. Thank you. Beautifully done.

[@AConnal]

ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!!!! Thank you so very much. The ideas presented in this "tutorial" has given me solutions for the so many pads I need to put together.

[@Jah_LEASE_yah]

Why have I watched this video like four times already? Why does the sounds of book binding, give me so much life?

Amazing and simple technique to make a book. Doesn't look at all that it is completely handmade. Awesome finishing.

[@kittenthecat4654]

That's it, now I'm 100% I will edit all the pdf I have of my favorites fanfiction with my favorites fanart. I will print them and bind them.

[@jayvalenz9447]

Kitten the cat exactly what I’m dreaming of! Rn I’m in the downloading phase, and originally i was planning on eventually having a kindle and filling it with fic, but having heard about people who had bound books of the portal fic Blue Sky, I’m now in love with that idea.... or both!! Bound books for an at home library, kindle for on-the-go convenience.... endless possibilities, really. 📚📚📕📙📘📗📚📚

[@parsil8158]

There's a very similar thing called ASMR. Look it up. It's very relaxing.

[@Asdayasman]

Yes everyone likes nice sounds, jesus christ.

[@StyxNyx1]

When I was in school many moons ago, I always got tingles during reading time in classes or at the library. Just listening to the sound of pages turning in a book, or someone slowly crinkling up some paper in class during a test or any other quiet time. Paper is just the best ASMR for me.

[@parsil8158]

@johnny walker What is this logic??

[@ginabisaillon2894]

Very useful! I have an old paper back that I'm having to fix and I wanted a soft cover not a hard one because it's a 1000-page book. You have given me the solution I am so appreciative!

He really threw his books down at the end like “ I really do this shit!” Hahaha awesome video

That is seriously the most relaxing thing I've ever watched :D

Woah this is actually pretty , might make one for my bestfriend lol

[@margaritatabellini8806]

I think that it would be a really neat gift! Today I quite randomly did a book with japanese bookbinding, no expensive equipment (superglue and cutter were enough). Friends rated it cool, so now I have an idea for their birthdays :D

[@trublgrl]

This comment is not in any way facetious: I love that you mic'ed the book as you glued the spine paper. Seriously, your attention to detail is remarkable. Also, if you did a video of thirty minutes of high speed paper filing, I think it would crack the recommendations list.

[@sylviasid9902]

Beautiful notebook, outstanding tutorial! Thank you!

[@advanceg2116]

Technically, that's not Perfect Binding but rather Case Binding with softer backers and no spine. Perfect binding is gluing the pages like demonstrated with the cover just glued to the spine and folded over on the edges with the edges trimmed flush on a guillotine cutter. Needless to say it was WAY cool.

[@itaishemer]

You're abseloutly right. This is more "perfect-ish" then perfect binding, but that doesn't show up well on the title. Thank you!

[@IdaKiss]

Perfect binding is sewn.

[@advanceg2116]

Ida Kiss Perfect binding is the method of bookbinding in which a flexible adhesive attaches a paper cover to the spine of the assembled signatures of a book or magazine. Live Wire

yes they actually can

Such beautiful work! You inspire me.

[@GelidGanef]

:spoiler alert: When he finished the book, and then threw two more exact copies of it on top, the BDE gave me shivers

[@taritangeo4948]

It constantly baffles me that perfect binding actually holds the pages together and even lets the book lay flat most of the times.

[@hanelyp1]

The quality and application of the glue makes a big difference. Done right it works very well. But I have a couple commercially bound books using the method where pages are starting to come out.

[@taritangeo4948]

@@hanelyp1 yeah as long as glue holds well and has a bit give in it when dry. We used to have fancy new textbooks for english class that fell apart bc glue just crumbled and fell off, together with pages.

will the just the glue hold all pages together?

[@itaishemer]

VIDEO EPPO No, but the gauze will.

[@VIDEOEPPO]

what is the gauze?, i am sorry if i am asking a dumb question.

[@itaishemer]

Nah, you're cool. Gauze is a type of fabric that bookbinders use for the spine of the texkblock (2:24). You can see that I used in this video something that is part fabric part paper.

[@VIDEOEPPO]

Super!Got it!!. Nice video by the way

[@itaishemer]

VIDEO EPPO Thank you, glad I could help!

[@awkb777]

this was great to watch because I'm thinking of binding and printing my own book instead of paying 1000$ for the 100 copies from a printing house

[@4ataraxia]

Can I use the plywood laying around the house for the part where you compressed(?) the paper? Also what alternative can I use for the bone folder?

[@KipdoesStuff]

YOu don't really need the bone folder, it just gives a crisper edge.

Is very simple compared to other methods, just glue without sew, I don't have the tools but a pair of heavy books, scissors, ruler and cutter make the job.

I think some nice relaxing music all along and not just in the end woulld be great! Of course, with the sound of work though

[@lpforever6273]

Perhaps, but I prefer the unadorned, straightforward sounds of the process--I am here to watch the craft in practice. Of course, I could turn down the sound of this vid and then choose my own music to play while I watch it. For some superb (but totally silent) bookbinding vids check out the YT channel of BookbindersChronicle (one of my faves).

[@TheDoombrigade]

L&PForever Thats actully a great idea and comfy for everyone. Feel stupid bot thinking about it myself

[@lpforever6273]

Please don't beat yourself up about it! I am super fussy with music so I do this quite a lot when I don't like a particular choice of music on a vid. Bookbinding people tend to be really nice types so I'm sure we can all share ideas and approaches--Glad this channel continues to upload human scale and encouraging vids.
