New hobby just dropped (new hobby has been brewing for the last 3+ years)

1: 64mo blank book, aka 1/64 of a letter sized piece of paper. Total 1.5 sheets, dimensions ~1x1.5 in.

2: progress pic, the 64mo textblock. second binder clip is an attempt to make something even smaller than a 64mo

3: progress pic, the 64mo cut and folded signatures, ready to be punched and sewn

4: sticker of my bindery logo, which I designed myself :) + quarto notebook bc I made the textblock forever ago as practice, started using it as a notebook, and then figured if I was gonna use it, I should put a hard cover on it. It currently serves as my reference guide (paper size, suppliers, margins, etc).

Anyways it's so over. I'll see you in hell (WIP list)

#book shenanigans (hand binding tag)#i got tired of using fanbinding as the tag bc it's very inacurate now #ok time to hit the big fics (i've been making octavos aka 1/8 paper size. but i have some long ones on my list)#it's a lot easier if you mess up on a smaller one to redo #also i've scavenged like half my supplies from what i already has so i'm a little catious regarding barreling into a hobby wallet first #last thing: you can find me @/violoncellobindery which is where i'll keep most of this stuff. idk how i wanna divide it yet #post there rb here? post here rb there? never complete a project never post? 👀#ugh gotta work on my zine pieces. don't percieve me #what if i made multiple copies of alice in wonderland instead #as the others say this is many hobbies in a trenchcoat which is unfortunately all the hobbies i already dabble in #typography sewing reading hoarding handcrafting papercrafts etc #50% hoarding. 5% typesetting 10% printer issues 20% assembly 15% working up the courage to ask authors for binding perms #lol. i should try shutting up more.#bookbinding #book binding
