I've been using this method to bind my books--it's easy and it works beautifully. I was so inspired by how amazing his books looked I went out and got a nice printer and all. Home bookbinding makes life better!

This is a great method for binding books. If you would like to read about bookbinding the way it used to be done with raised bands and gold tooling visit Book Binding.

It was seeing this post that got me into binding books. I have several pdf's for rpg's that I play that I have bound this way, as well as several house rules documents that I formated specifically for this purpose. For those who are curious, you can use this method to get soft covered leather bound books, but the stuff the leather is treated with before hand (or maybe it was the glue) will seep right through the binding on every page.

This article is helpful. There is another article which talks about bookbinding business and tips about starting a venture.
