It's always a pleasure to see our magnetic corner clamps featured in videos from @das.bookbinding. So, here's another one.

Our shop has reopened for only a short time in November. We'll close again after that until spring!
Don't miss that opportunity :)

Every year, fellows of Designer Bookbinders prepare six unique bindings for the award ceremony of the Booker Prize. This time, we invited Hannah Brown, a British bookbinder, to discuss her binding with us. Hannah's book was 'The Rest of Our Lives' by Ben Markovits.

Here's a great reason to continue our favorite discussion: what is a book and what isn't a book?

Pavel is in Egypt now and sends plenty of amazing things he experiences in museums there.

What a great example of use of our magnetic corner clamps for boxmaking!

But also, I think @coseacasodesign produce some of the most creative boxmaking videos on Instagram, please follow them :)

Continuing the theme of raised bands, here are some very real ones on an 18th-century book about witches.

Bound by @lilbookbinder

Can you name the signs of fake raised bands? :)

A great process explainer from @jaytannerbookbinder
(Not about distinguishing the fake from the real ones, though :)

If you enjoyed the previous video, here's another one, both featuring our corner clamps, and the final result of Teodora's work!

By the way, we just re-opened retail sales in our shop! But for only one month to allow you to buy holiday season presents for yourselves and your friends!

iBookBinding is closing its shop at least until October for a paternal leave!

You will still be able to buy our tools through an ever growing list of partners!

The color range you see in the video was chosen in collaboration with @corinne_vend_des_trucs (Belgium)

We just updated the stocks of Daniela Prina's marbled paper! And as Stepan is leaving for his paternal leave in August, this may be the last opportunity to buy this amazing paper from us until late autumn!

How books with round spines are made?

We just had Dimitris (@dimitris_bookbinding_corner) live with an iBookBinding Class dedicated to making simple finishing tools. But it's always a pleasure to share his stuff. So, here's some backing work :)

We return with a new live class!

Dimitris Koutsipetsidis has been a guest on our podcast and live stream a few times already. We discussed his tools more than once as well. Both in the context of the bindings he makes and separately.

Our magnetic clamps are already used by hundreds of bookbinders, other artisans, and hobbyists of all kinds all over the world. From Australia and New Zealand to Brazil and Argentina. From Germany and Sweden to Mexico and the US. And, of course, the UK, where iBookBinding resides since 2023.

Our live stream's co-host Pavel just visited Turkey recently and piled on me dozens of photos. I'll share some of them with you in the upcoming days.

Here are some manuscripts from the Turkish and Islamic Arts Museum in Istanbul

Always a pleasure seeing beautiful bookbinding machinery being used. Here's a short video with board shear from @bigriverbindery

By the way, how do you call this tool? I know it has different names in different regions and languages.
