Members BlackDragon Posted October 9 Members Report Posted October 9 (edited) In a rebinding thread I made a post about starting a rebinding project on a Bible. This is the before and after of that. I had an old Bible laying around. It's actually the first Bible I ever owned, bought back in the 80's. It's got a few loose pages and the last page is torn near the spine. I carefully tore off the cover and was able to save the end pages which I'll reuse. I had to remove quite a bit of glue off the spine. I'll take the title page and use it to repair the torn last page. I gave the text block speckled edges with a maroon base to hide the browning of the page edges and added some bookmark ribbons. I remade the title page using vellum, had some soft 3/4 oz brown leather I acquired some time ago. 3/4oz is a bit thick for rebinding but since it's a soft cover it'll work. I just have to skive the edges so I can fold them over. I used heat transfer vinyl for the lettering. I have a Silhouette Cameo 4 for cutting the vinyl.
