Books and Enclosures
Session Four: June 30-July 12

Andy Rottner
Books and Enclosures

This workshop will provide a straightforward approach to making sewn-section, case bound books and the construction of four enclosure types. Students will first design and bind a 6 x 9 inch, 96-page book. Then they will design and build these four separate enclosures for that book: four-flap paper portfolio, slipcase, clamshell box, and lift-top box. We will use equipment such as the board shear, paper guillotine, and book press while learning techniques that include folding and piercing sections, sewing, forwarding, trimming, book cover construction, casing-in, gluing, measuring, cutting, and book and box design. All levels.
