Many of us do not have signatures folded as you explain and do not do sewing, as we just print single sheets out of a pdf document. Thus I would be more interested into gluing stuff. I did glue pages and it worked good However I could not round the spine as you suggest. May be I don't have to? Also trying to make a hard cover, I run into some difficulties. If you could have a video addressing the book binding just by gluing single shieets, it would great.
One of the best video series I've seen so far on bookbinding! You are gifted in explaining things really! Two comments though:
1) It its more useful to organize all your bookbinding videos in sequential order. Eg. bookbinding step 1: swewing signatures (part1) and part(2) if necessary. Then you'll have a bookbinding step2, ex. with end pages etc... I found it a little difficult organizing your videos in sequence. The second comment is on next post.
These videos are really great, but your construction jig relies alot on the book being totally straight. Not so easy for a beginner. In the circumstance that its not, it could pay to mention to make two line-markings with the jig across the board, and rule across the top of the from the highest points. Does that make sense? What do you think?
