A Stick and a Hammer by bkbinthecity

A Stick and a Hammer

So this was how l spent a good portion of my day at work. I was helping in the hand bindery dept. This particular job required using the stick and hammer to punch out the holes in these circles. Taking about 20-25 sheets at a time then placing them on the base which has holes that line up with the holes in the sheets. Once this is done the five circles will then be put together using a metal clip
Fascinating! What are you ultimately binding? I think "books", but you don't say, and I'm curious!

Profit Share Project? This sounds like a voluntary scheme to help others share something to which they've all made a contribution? Interesting....

Excellent and clear photo bkb. It looks that not one got it right, nor did I. So, what is the end result. :)

It looks and sounds like a very precise process and judging from the ones that are already cut out you do a very good job! I'm like the others- wondering what the final product is.
