The Decision is Binding

NoMediaKings.org will tell you how to hand-bind books in a variety of ways. Then you can make the movie of the book. As a bonus: Time Management for Anarchists.
Time Management for Anarchists? But anarchists don't do anything.

Excellent presentation on time-management for anarchists. "A change is as good as a rest!"

Yeah, this guy's been around forever. Good stuff.
I actually went on his Perpetual Motion Roadshow last year, sadly one of the last such tours to take place.

Thanks for that link, Xere. I'm giving this hand-binding lark a try myself at the moment and there are some interesting ideas there.

I have hand-bound two books during my graphic design education and found it to be rewarding and fairly easy, though time consuming. Both were perfect-bound paperbacks:
Book one—Beaver Ears, 33 pages, four colors—was an exploration of the cultural history, contemporary thought and proportional relationship of human ears.
My second book—Finding Reason, 173 pages, one color—was a combination of the writings and 'proof of concept' for my senior thesis.
Professor and designer Law Alsobrook is an accomplished book-binder and provides excellent instruction on it, though not online.
Now—go forth and make books!
(do I owe an apology for the self links?)

I don't think so. Those links are interesting, on topic, and in a thread started by someone else. I liked them.
