all day office hours on thursday!

It’s been too long since I last had an all day office hours session on Instagram! I decided to have one this Thursday (Nov 22nd), so, maybe start thinking about questions you’d like me to answer for you? I graduated as a master bookbinder in 2006, so I have a fairly wide knowledge base about most things related to bookbinding, not just about the things you see me make. I’d say my engineer brain’s specialty is troubleshooting handmade books that misbehave in one way or another, but feel free to ask about whatever. I promise I’ll try to come up with a satisfactory answer for you. For obvious reasons I won’t be able to write you full tutorials for bindings or special techniques, but I can try pointing you in the right direction on the smaller stuff.

I’ll set up an Instagram post dedicated for your questions around noon (gmt+2) and you’ll have until the following morning to leave your questions in the comment section of that post. I’ll answer them as soon as I can, and afterwards I’ll once again gather all the questions and answers into a blog post for your convenience. It’d be greatly appreciated if you took a look at the questions and aswers from earlier office hours sessions, so I won’t have to answer the same stuff over and over again. You can find the big Q&A roundup post here.

Follow me on Instagram to have the office hours post pop directly into your feed - I’ll also post reminders in my insta stories on the day of!
