Bookbinding Tutorial

Rhonda Miller of My Handbound Books brings us this excellent bookbinding tutorial. The video demonstrates the steps involved in mounting the cover on a text block, something that can be a bit confusing if you're relying on a written description.

    Thanks, that does help a lot.

    I've had so much trouble in the past that I've just started putting paint and texturing on already existing book covers.

    I may have to give tomecrafting-from-scratch another go sometime.

    Thanks for posting that. I was always missing a satisfying tutorial on that last decisive step. Nothing more frustrating than seeing a whole good textblock coming to waste.
