First attempt at a cover for Dracula. Can think of some improvements, especially turning in the black fabric, but overall, I don't hate it #bookbinding #dracula
biggest cargo, 400m long - going forward I will not have a schedule 🤍 Thanks for following
Ok, I can confirm that the glass method does produce fsr superior bookcloth
Last think of bookcloth didn't come out great, wanted to see if making it on glass really does help But can't just buy a pane down at the hardware store So head to HfH and get a bigass frame print of the arc de triumph for 5 bucks :V #bookbinding

Next project, don't think the cords will stick through that much, but should hopefully be sturdy #bookbinding #dracula
Third bookbind finished, said a lot more over on my tumblr, but in short, still learning, have a lot of critiques for this one, not one I'd try to sell, mostly over the case, trying to figure out how to do those better #bookbinding #waroftheworlds
Well, second attempt at homemade bookcloth The actual cloth itself turned out fine, if a bit thin, you can kinda see the tone of the chipboard behind it But I screwed up trimming the corners and now they're ugly :V #bookbinding
Ok, attempt #2 at bookcloth. The first go probably would have worked fine... but I only measured once before cutting :V Don't mix up cm and mm kids #bookbinding
First attempt at bookcloth, I think the paper I used was to thick and also I stored it wrong so it got creased but eh #Bookbinding
Second bind of the day was more of a pain in the ass, don't think I'll do Quatros again, to thick and to small #bookbinding
First time using my new seeing station to do a reinforced spine my sewings still not the neatest but should hopefully be good and durable #bookbinding

Trying Quatros for my next bind, kinda small on 8.5x12 but that's the only good paper I've got Trying to find bookbinding suitable paper in Canada is a journey XD #bookbinding
Art by Tim White for Out of My Mind by John Brunner (NEL, 1980)
Well, my artfart profile. My goal this year is doing at least 3 attacks. They won't be good, but it's something #artfight
Finally finished my second bind. Still some issues but better Than the first was a gift #bookbinding
Some of Steve R Dodd’s beautiful obelisk, pyramid, portal and monument art from 1970s to recent years.
Had a thought that I could improve my bench hook and I think I did, though there's still issues If I have continue a cut it never quite matches up and I bought the wrong screws, but it is lighter and lower profile now #bookbinding #woodworking
