Perfect bind a book 2

[pistolland]

do you guys know if the pages pre-stitched? or did he just stack up the papers seperately

@pistolland In perfect bind (the name for this technique) you use loose pages, no stitching required. I have used this technique with great success. The bending the pages over step during gluing is the critical one to get good page adhesion.
