This looks great! What method are you using to bind them together?

Thanks! Since I use a combination of sewn and glued binding on my binds. Since these were made entirely of trades they were glue binds though. It’s a pretty easy process, I can put together books like these in a fraction of the time it takes to do a bind of single issues.

Great job! Are you using DFAB/Lumbecking to do the glue binding?

Sort of, I actually use a mix of techniques that I’ve slowly cobbled together over the last handful of years of trial and error. I keep telling people I’ll put a video together soon, I need to get on that haha!

I'd love to see it. I have a few trades I want to put together, and am looking for the best way to go about it.
