Has everything you need for book binding, enough material for many projects to come, great price and materials held up well

i don't know about for professional bookbinding, but for a beginner this kit has everything! and so inexpensive! i can't believe what i got for the money. basic supplies, and so much stuff. really incredible.

This was an impressive kit for the price. This is my first book binding kit so I don’t have a comparison, but I have made 2 notebooks using these.I’m not sure if the awl is as sharp as they can be or if it would be better to invest in one that is much sharper, it works fine though. Haven’t used it for anything thicker than sketch paper.The thread it comes with is waxed. It definitely is easier to work with than I waxed thread, I will say it is excessively thick and over slathered in beeswax if you are trying to sew in very small signature holes it can fray and with the wax it is almost more unfixable.I will be using all of it as it is still quality and I only frayed with thread once easy to adjust once you work with that in mind.I do suggest for this or myself will be buying linen thread and simply running it through bee wax myself to control the thickness and focus it more at near the needlepoint than the entire strand.The bone folders are bone folders work absolutely great. The ruler is a very nice ruler and I’ve used it as a straight edge to tear my paper to get that distressed edge look. All and all of you are just starting out like me this is a great kit with the basic supplies you will need.

My husband loves this set he bought so he can fix books that need mending.

Nice collection of the essentials needed to start book binding. Easy to use- looks to be durable.

Daughter used this to create some smaller bound books and enjoyed the kit very much.

Everything was in the kit that was needed for a beginner to start a book. A good value.

Right now I'm in between living spaces and, to keep my sanity, I needed to make some journals. All of my regular equipment is in the other living space, so I ordered this little kit with the basic necessities to put together a couple of junk journals for the Year of the Dragon. What a life saver! All you need is the glue and a little waxed paper. The rest is in the very handy zippered case. (OK, and maybe a better pair of scissors but that's my absolute must have.) This kit is a treat!
