Oh, OK. That is a different story. This is more like it. So tell me what you have in mind.
Send me a note and I can give you the details of how I work.
Cheers,

I have a ship's log that I would like bound into a book. The pages are Lain paper about A2 in size.  There's about 30 pages.  Can you give me a quote.

BCcreativity In reply to vleonica [2015-05-19 21:40:44 +0000 UTC]

30 pages are not enough to bind in this fashion. You would only have 3 signatures of ten.

What kind of glue do you use for adhering the leather to the board underneath? To get the definition you do, it seems like you would need to be using contact cement for quick adhesion...

i pare my leather in the areas that need to be thinner first. Then, moisten the leather and allow it to soak in. I then use a glue called SOBO. It is a fabric glue that performs well and is pliable as it dries making it easier to tool.

hmmm interesting. I wonder how SOBO compares to the PVA glue I use

BCcreativity In reply to Marcusstratus [2015-05-25 17:07:41 +0000 UTC]

I use to use PVA but found that SOBO is more forgiving and dries very clear.
