Woohoo! Hello to you all! I’m finally into this cool site. Thanks to one of my rellies for introducing me to it through his own neat art. What a fantastic concept, a chance for us all to get our expressions out there and look at a whole bunch of awesome creations. I will be spreading the word about this….
I am not at all computer savvy, but can only improve…

Hi Daleigh, bookbinding sounds interesting, what sort of stuff do you get to do?
Daleigh
Hey Damian, well it’s pretty varied, I do the usual (run-of-the-mill) library binding for places like the Universities and Te Papa (national museum) including endless theses; then there’s specialty (ring)binders for the likes of the Law faculties (plus the endless hard-binding of Law Reports including the “flash” leather ones for the Judges); specialty portfolios for company proposals; restaurant menus; limited edition designer books; loads of students’ projects; specialty slip cases and boxes/drop boxes/presentation boxes; and that’s all the stuff done by hand! There’s also the endless perfect binding (machine bound standard soft cover hot glued spine – your average paperback) which sometimes provides some great reading!
Thanks for your interest.
