Is this the long anticipated film by Roger Hill shot at Froxfield that Chris referenced in the 2005 edition of "Limp Vellum" (pgs. viii & 7)? This is indeed so very exciting to see. Thanks so much for making it available!
Hi Bryan, yes, dad originally wanted to produce a DVD of this video, but was not able to in the end. But a friend of his had organised the original cassette tape of the video to be digitised, so I've posted that copy here - glad to hear you enjoy it!
This is of interest not just to conservators (current and future) but also to folks just starting out as hobby bookbinders. The flexability of the end result as demonstrated at 0:40 really appeals to me for a couple of projects I'm thinking of doing in the nearish future. Of course I need to work on my basic skills first. A couple of questions for you though. At 14:30 there is mention of a sewing frame modified for sewing on the round. What is this technique and are there any examples of it available for us novices? What are the modifications needed for the sewing frame? Many thanks Dave
Hi Dave, glad to hear dad's video is useful to you. I'm afraid I don't know much about the modified sewing frame, but I will see if I can find out about it.
A real treasure ! Thank you so much .
Thank you so much Eoghan for sharing this great film! Invaluable to keep on teaching our Master's lessons to future generations.
Glad you enjoy it, Marco! Yes, dad did want to make this more widely available for conservators.
This is so labor intensive.
Wonderfull!! Thank you very much for your explanations and techniques!!
Dad would have been delighted to read your comment, Dina, thanks for posting!
