Members Rawhide Posted April 29, 2009 Author Members Report Posted April 29, 2009 So, if the lining isn't stitched, I must assume it is only glued? There must be some book binding glues for that, or would any good leather glue work?Excellent work, by the way. As always, you set the bar very high! I took the liberty of asking...just in case anyone else had the same question.... ...yes, all is glued. Look at any album in stores and you will find they are 'glued'. The outer cover is glued (with contact cement) only around the edges, as there is foam padding under both front and back covers. The goatskin lining (skived to a feather edge) is glued with 'white glue' (Elma's style). I have used this as excess glue can be cleaned up with damp rag (with water of course). Glueing such a fine edge with a contact cement is not practical. Peter Quote Marlon
