The solitude of bookbinding | Handmade full leather binding

[@bibubinuthomas5148]

This book is gorgeous. Whatever they say, aesthetics is a sublime quality we always crave.

I just started a bookbinding course at college, and I just stumbled onto your channel doing some preliminary research :) this was a lovely video!

[@PaulMichaelKane]

Just wonderful to watch . . . all of it. The production quality of the video . . . the craftsmenship of the work . . . the choice in music . . . the mood. Bravo.

You have amazing skill for 2 years of bookbinding! Your gold tooling is spot on! I still struggle with nice, clean tooling.

[@bookshelfiv2537]

Thank you! I have ruined many leathers for these two years and I still do. Tooling is the hardest part of a binding. Good luck!

[@avarineavee6502]

i know its 3 months old comment, but what tooling is? covering the cover (lol) with leather?

[@Horsecrazz]

@@avarineavee6502 Tooling is when they are putting the designs in the leather. In this case, they did it with leather stamps and gold leaf. It can also be done with different kinds of knives and by free handing the designs.

this is amazing!!!! where can I buy brass finishing tools?

[@bookshelfiv2537]

Hi, I bought mine from bookbindesigns.co.uk/ and BookbindingTools on Etsy

[@lisajarvis3820]

Where do you get your gold leaf from?

[@bookshelfiv2537]

This one is from Schmedt24

[@Turgon92]

I really like the endpappers you make. Is it of your own design? I dabbed with some styles of endpappers,but the one i like is kind of over-powered for journals(the one with 2 signatures on each side of cloth and marbled on top),and just gluing the marbled on top of the first signature feels...kinda empty.

[@bookshelfiv2537]

Hi, sorry for the late reply, this is craft paper I bought from a local art store, but I've made some before. Don't underestimate the overall look of a book, even if your endpapers look 'empty', they might suit the book very well. Besides, you can experiment a lot with some A5 or A4 papers until you like something.

Прекрасно! Книгите са мойта мания. Или наркомания, както ще да е. Поглъщам ги безогледно и съм малко всеядна... Но подобно отношение и изкуство е уникално в днешно време. Впечатлена съм.
