Japanese punch binding is more labor intensive, but is far more flexible
as far as number of pages available. It's still a very easy
binding, but is more time consuming and requires a little more exactitude.
It is still well within the capability of beginning binders. |

Participants will have an opportunity to learn how to bind each of these
blank books during the evening workshop. The bindings are simple
and even those with no experience should be able to accomplish both.
In addition, participants will leave the workshop with materials to go
home and bind a book of their own printed material. |
