In this video I sew The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin using a sewing machine.  This approach is sometimes used in commercial bookbinding for single section/signature books for economical or ephemeral binding.  The downside is the close row of holes along the spine fold of the book which could weaken the paper making it prone to tearing.

The PDF I made for this video is available from my Patreon store for USD$6 plus applicable app fees.

Bookbinding for Beginners by J. Kay

I thought both the books were available, but I can only find one now.  I'll update this if I find it.

The adhesive I'm using is Evasol EVA.

The paper I used is short grain A5 Reflex 80gsm copier paper.  This paper is no longer made.  Any short grain 80gsm copier paper will work.  The PDF will scale to half US letter, A4 and full US letter.  When printing on A4 paper I scaled the PDF to only 120% for both the text and cover art.

The bookcloth used for the cover is Chelsea.

The #DASBookbinding Channel is the perfect starting point for learning #bookbinding.  It covers foundation skills, simple projects, technical methods, materials and more advanced bookbinding projects.  The best way to find what you are looking for is the DAS Bookbinding YouTube Channel guide.
