In my attempt to get shop equipment working that needs fixing or has missing parts I was finally able to complete at least one project today. I bought this Dryad bookbinder's lying press and plough several years ago, but had searched in vain for the missing cutting blade. While searching online last night I was looking at small wood plane blades as an alternative, when I suddenly remembered an old plane blade that has been knocking around in my printing tool box for quite a few years. It was larger than I needed, and with the help of a fine fellow at a local iron-works it was cut down and roughed out this afternoon. This evening I did the final shaping and sharpening, and finally I have a working plough.

I was commissioned to create an album that could contain 8.5x11" letters written for a librarian who was retiring. Her colleagues provided the letters, which I re-formatted to have a 2 inch margin on the left side and a 1 inch margin on the right, so that I could bind it. The covers are made with a cool selection of my favorite yuzen/chiyogami japanese papers that I inlaid into the cover into this quilt pattern (so they aren't just glued on top of the maroon mums paper, everything is flush on the cover) I stitched it with 1/8" ribbon, and the interior pages are 100% cotton. I drilled the holes using a drill press. The spine is made with Japanese silk bookcloth. The full sized book measures approximately 9"x12" Top Secret VIP List | Blog | Twitter | Pinterest | Instagram

A while ago I made one of those vices used for bookbinding which is called a 'lying press', not because it is used to print articles for the Lügendpresse, whoever that might be, but because it is a press and lies down, in a bench called a tub. There are many drawings, etc, all over…
