This was the most time consuming & in depth book repair I've done. I disassembled the book, steamed pages, repaired pages with tengucho paper, re-bound the book, & made a new casing. It was my first time doing a rounded spine, so that was a bit scary! There was quite a bit of spine swell due to old adhesive that I wasn't able to completely remove + my own oversight of thread thickness.

Another before and after // this one took a little steaming to get them in better shape for re-binding
A small before and after
A little moisture goes a long way to flatten bent pages
First post to Mastodon. Thought I'd share a book I've been commission to repair.
This is an old Bible passed down through the family and it has definitely seen better days. I'm using 3.5 gsm Haini paper to strengthen any parts of the pages that need it.
Don't be jarred by the scissors! They're for cutting my Haini paper ✂️
