In this video I present to you two easy-to-make versions of a tool I use for virtually every bookbinding project: the piercing cradle! If you're moving beyond the basic tool kit I described in my Bookbinding Basics video ( • Bookbinding Basics: Chapter 1 - Basic Tool... ), then this is one of the first bits of kit I'd recommend you add to your toolbox. The good news is that I'll show you how to make one for yourself, first the easy way, and then the even easier (and basically free!) way. If you find this video to be valuable then of course be sure to like it, and consider subscribing for even more bookbinding content. I've got some big things planned for this year, so you won't want to miss out!
