This delrin lifting tool is useful for general lifting, mechanical backing removal, and whenever you need to gently pry or delaminate something. Great for book and paper conservators. Although it is thicker than the carbon fiber lifter I also make, it has a slightly lower coefficient of friction, so slides a bit better. DELRIN LIFTING TOOL (About 12 x 1 x .125″): $40 This folder is carefully designed to accomplish all the general uses a bookbinder or conservator has: scoring, folding, turning-in, applying non-marring local pressure, large scale smoothing.

That tidy little piece of technology is having its own quiet heyday, while digital devices mutate madly. The vitality of the book - as a form - is on spectacular display in the first-ever international competition of about 100 or so handmade books, which are daring, collectible pieces of contemporary art. Think of it as "American Idol" for a global village of bookbinders. Rather than interpreting songs, these competitors take years to create one-of-a-kind bindings for the letterpress-printed pages of the same book. In this instance, that book is a collection of poetry called "Water," which has inspired a dizzying array of book art. The traveling exhibition "Bound for Success" - organized by Designer Bookbinders, a 700-member British craft society devoted to the union of traditional technique and contemporary design - can be seen at the San Francisco gallery of Bonhams & Butterfields through March 6.

One of the principal texts of the Arts and Crafts movement in England, this classic work brought a resurgence of life and vigour to the ancient craft of binding books by hand. Its fame and usefulness has endured for more than a century, as evidenced by the many contemporary bookbinders and libraries who consider it to be the clearest and most valuable exposition of the technique of hand bookbinding in English. The text covers concisely virtually every aspect of the craft-from folding and collating pages, trimming and gilding edges, and culling and attaching boards, to preparing covers, mitring corners, designing and inlaying on leather, and pasting down end papers.

More than twenty informative text diagrams and eight plates, as well as a glossary and an index complete this important manual. Bookbinders Leather Starter Pack. Robert Wu - Designer Bookbinders of America - Waterfox.
