    This video and all the effort involved is tremendously impressive, and knowing that this modern process pales in scale and final results compared to historical papermaking efforts is mind-blowing. I knew, vaguely, that papermaking was high-effort and difficult, but this video drives that notion home. Thank you for all of your hard work, and for sharing it with us here!

    I remain sincerely impressed by the work done by UI's Center for the Book. I learned about your institution from reading A Degree of Mastery, graduate Annie Trammel Wilcox's memoir of her experience in the program. Watching your Chancery Papermaking video was exciting, informative, and a true pleasure. Best wishes for success in improving the process!

    This is great! I love seeing people taking back old crafts, and that you are teaching classes of students this impressive skill, and deepening your appreciation for papermaking, is truly heartwarming.

    Great job. I am currently studying a 'Introduction to Rare Book Librarianship' unit on my library degree and was recommended this video. Watching this footage has definitely helped with my understanding of the difficulty of making paper and the time it took.

    I really enjoyed my time at the UI production facility. It is interesting to see the improvements and trials that have come a long way since that time.

    After watching dozens of videos on paper making, no one has told us what the chemicals that are added.

    What material would they have historically used for the screens on the mould and deckle. Silk, brass?

    Well done there. I roughly timed the vatman and indeed there were about 4 sheets a minute being made at a somewhat relaxed rate. It is important to be able to maintain the rate over an extended period of time so going faster is not really an option for people who have not been at the work for years. I have begun training, not teaching, a small group to work with wood according to 18th century methods including the use of a spring pole lathe. I have done the work for 20+ years so I am in pretty good shape so far as skill and stamina. Here is a thought- maybe the reason you have not achieved the sort of results you are looking for is because you process the fiber with machines. Perhaps you need to go farther down the rabbit hole and process the fibers the same way they did in the past. Of course this was published 10 years ago so maybe you have worked that out by now.

    Question you say you use a 3% solution for you sizing.. Is that 3% by volume or by weight?

      thegoblintrader Greetings. Volume of water; say 1000ml, and weight of dry gelatin; 30 grams. T. Barrett

    How is the paper being help up while its drying. I see there are slots in the wood, but whats actually holding them in place?

      Hi Cecelia, I was able to visit Tim Barrett's studio last week and actually see the process in action! It's a marble drying rack, a google image search will explain how it works better than I can. Basically marbles are held in place by the wood slots and they can move up to allow the paper to slide in, but they can't fall out. It's a really neat design!

      At 200 sheets per hour, 7-1/2 hour day, plus breaks for lunch, etc.

    Experimental Archeology is all fine and dandy, but now imagine the actual three man teams back in the day. Having to do this eight hours a day, every day, for the rest of your life. T.T

    WTF? How do you try to reproduce the effects of historical production rates with a mechanical shredder/pulverizer? Lazy bastards.

    This process is so amazing, I would love to work making paper 😍 production processes like this from before 1800 are completely necessary to uphold and keep studying: how would we know how all of our machines build our world if we cannot duplicate their work ourselves?
