Been working on a special book project, and I've also been filming the entire process with plans on making a long video showing how it was made - not sure why I have to make things that are already difficult and time consuming even more difficult and time consuming lol #bookbinding
Just experimenting/testing some bookbinding stuff, figured I would experiment with filming some thing as well #bookbinding
Short video video of the EQ tome! #Bookbinding #Everquest
Most recently completed project, re-bind of the Prima strategy guide for the Everquest expansion The Ruins of Kunark! The thought of re-binding something like this into a more proper book style was very interesting to me, so had to give it a go - pretty happy with it! #bookbinding #Everquest
Got the text block sewed up and then rounded and backed, then reinforced with some mull/paper. Next up - sanding the edges/painting and then sewing the headbands! #Bookbinding
A simple binding of A Christmas Carol - Christmas present for my mom this year. Since we watch the Patrick Stewart version every year and I'm not sure if she has read the book or not I figured it would make a nice gift #bookbinding #AChristmasCarol #Books
Been experimenting with / making video game cassette tapes
Designed a label for the Pokemon Heart & Soul hack
Working on more book stuff, and retro game stuff, might actually start posting more things here, we'll see! Dracula soft cover to hard cover conversion with faux leather. This was one of my first projects when I got back into doing bookbinding stuff. #bookdinging #Dracula
Latest re-bind project - Between Two Fires Soft cover to hard cover conversion with faux leather. This book got me back into reading a year or so ago, and also back into bookbinding so I wanted to try something special for it. #bookbinding #book #BetweenTwoFires
Made some Pokemon SNES carts recently, always trying to find interesting ways to photograph them 🎮
Whenever it snows I feel compelled to watch Bob Ross, so I make a PB&J and I do that. I recommend that everyone does the same (Or something similar!) #watchbobrosswhenitsnows
The Cowboy Bebop movie and Godzilla. That is all, thank you
