I'm in your class with Roz and just ...Hi, Jan. I'm in your class with Roz and just finished my first book today. It's under weights until midnight, so I'm not sure yet how it all turned out. I love this book of yours. I don't really care for the all-black bookcloth I used for class, but I like the idea of using it only on the spine with decorative papers like yours. Did you use a certain kind or weight?<br /><br />If you ever figure out what to cut your book boards with, I hope you will post it here. I don't think my hands will hold up to manual cutting either.SusanAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12752628219836145623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5955907979452828372.post-34932160957649606162015-05-25T17:59:46.545-04:002015-05-25T17:59:46.545-04:00I love your book.

I was thinking about a table saw, we have one too and my husband was talking about using that and creating a jig to get nice straight cuts and square corners. Do you sand the edges of your book board after they are cut?

Now I make all my books! Bookbinding is almost as much fun as sketching. I wanted to know the size of your book. I had a terrible time cutting the cover board too. My husband has a table saw and I was surprised how accurately he could cut my boards with it. Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03747968600626436301noreply@blogger.com
