Review on VENCINK Bookbinding Starter Kit with Genuine Bone Folder Creaser, Paper Awl, Large-eye Needles, Waxed Thread, Binding Ribbon, Glue Brush, and Steel Ruler - Complete Bookbinding Supplies and Tools by Tara Ford

Best value for money to start or continue your hobby

This is the set you need when you need to repair old classic books or bind your own books. Book and craft projects. Considering you're getting a kit that has most of the things you need to cover most repairs for a little more than the price of a single bone folder at most craft stores, this is definitely the way to go. The main item to look out for is the Bone Folder as it is the most expensive item in the set. The one that came with it was perfect for the job and looked well made which should stand the test of time. I did some research and found that this set had all the tools I needed to replace some of the flyleaves that no longer worked well with the text block in an antique book I got at a big discount. I've got some acid free PVA, methylcellulose, zip ties and am ready to do just about any repair job I can find. I collect books and enjoy replacing covers with high quality mottled cloth paper. It looks amazing and all those old books look like they came from the Hogwarts library! that I will find. I collect books and enjoy replacing covers with high quality mottled cloth paper.
