Bookbinding
These pages explore my bookbinding interests:
- Tools and Equipment -- I made most of the tools I use for my bookbinding. These pages show some details of their design and construction.
- Projects -- Take a look at some of the books I've made. You'll also find links to more detailed pages.
- MLB Rules Project -- My first bookbinding effort.
- First Journal Project -- My first journal.
- Journals of Lewis and Clark -- A big, two-volume project.
- Quick Coptic Notebook -- A notebook bound with a Coptic sewing technique.
- Lifetime Account Book -- A journal book for a lifetime.
The image on this page shows the back side of my lying press, made from threaded rod, mahogeny jaws and turned alder handles. I've since replaced the threaded rod with wooden handscrews.
