Secret Belgian Binding

Описание: The book created using the Secret Belgian binding technique has the advantage of lying flat when open, but one of the coolest things about this particular binding is the way that you can fold either cover all the way back. This binding method is sometimes called crisscross binding.

Here is a great source for the bookboard, or binder's board, mentioned in the video. You can get it in several different thicknesses.

If you're tired of cutting bookboard by hand (particularly the thicker bookboard used for making boxes and slipcases) this inexpensive guillotine works wonderfully and is a real time and hand-saver.
