Bound: Long Haul by @wolfpants

As a writer, I often am fondest of my shorter stories, but these fics are not the obvious choice for binding because they're so little. I actually started setting this story a while ago but put the typeset aside when I realized it was going to be such a low page count.

But more recently, I have been experimenting with a pamphlet bind to see if short stories and/or text blocks can be bound to my satisfaction, and yep! They can!

I love this short story by wolfpants and I have read it often enough that it deserved to be bound and put in my library. The story contains lovely delicious smut and (as you'd expect from wolf) excellent character-building, dialogue, and just exactly the right amount of realism. Wolf writes true adult characters and I adore this about their writing.

More about process and materials under the cut!

Materials: This is a quarto letter pamphlet bind using letter-sized 24# paper. The end papers are chiyogami acquired in Montreal. Book boards are actually cut from matte board that came in some packet of supplies or another, about 1 mm thickness and quite a bit bendier than my usual 2 mm book board, but worked nicely and feels appropriate for this little baby.

Book cloth is wooqu off Amazon as per. I sewed the pamphlet using three strands of waxed embroidery floss. Spine is strengthened with mull and a little strip of the same paper as the text block. Cover decoration is HTV vinyl. A few titles are foiled with toner-activated foil and a laminator. (Big shout-out to @sits-bound for technical assistance with figuring out that process!)

Process: This is a sewn 64-page/16 sheet quarto. I followed DAS Bookbinding's YouTube video here pretty closely except (as you can see) I went for a full cloth bind. I also added the paper layer on the spine before wrapping in cloth. I did this because I found mull alone — at least my cheap-ass mull — was not making for a smooth spine. The paper was a huge help on this front.

This is actually my third attempt at this style of binding (not counting the versions I did in class under adult supervision) so please do not be too impressed, lol.

The whole thing is held together by 50/50 corn starch/PVA mix (as well as the thread.)

I trimmed the tail twice by accident so then I had to trim the head twice too, and so that's why my margins are slender. :D

The HTV decoration was designed by yours truly (if you look at it for very long you'll be like "oh yeah I can see that" ahahaha) but I was really pleased with how it came out. I think I'm FINALLY finding my successful approaches for applying HTV. And yes, it was a monumental pain in my ass to weed. Worth it!

Peep the grease mark on the front title page. Sexy. No idea where it's from but yowza.

Bind short fic! Short fic also deserves binding! *steps off soapbox*

Lakeside

Summary:

James Sunderland doesn't remember why he'd driven his car into the lake. He can't explain why he was rescued, or what led to his decision, but he clings to the hope that someone will help him piece it together before hell freezes over. Douglas Cartland swore he'd never set foot in that godforsaken town again. That vow gets tested when Toluca Lake begins freezing in the middle of summer, against all logic and reason, and resurrects the drowned man he'd given up for dead.

Or, "Nature is healing. Hell is freezing over."

Prologue - Tumblr / AO3

1.

Will you reach heaven unassisted? Or must corpses point the path, Blind eyes glimpsing gold?

Another face swims in.

"Mr. Sunderland: Dr. Takuma again. I know how worn out you must be from the tests you've endured today. Rest assured, we won't keep you for much longer. Before we let you go, though, there is one last thing we must test."

"I need to go home."

"This will move much faster with your cooperation."

The laminated card clipped to the breast pocket claims his name is Robert Takuma. When James observes his face, he sees no connection. Certainly there are pieces that constitute an identity, eyes, nose, and mouth, but no underlying thread stitches them together. They float in a loose amalgamation without coherence or meaning. A mannequin of clothed limbs perches on the stool before him.

"Now, this exercise may seem rather silly and childish on the surface, but it will reveal quite a bit about the nature of your condition. With these flashcards, I will show you a series of illustrations. You tell me which is correct about them. Ready?" He interprets James' silence as consent and raises the first card. "Man or woman?"

James dwells in wordlessness before murmuring, "Woman."

"Why?"

"It's wearing high heels."

"Mm." The card settles in Takuma's lap, replaced by another. "Old or young?"

"Old."

"Why?"

"Cane."

"Good." Hands shuffle the deck. "Blonde or brunette?"

Silence.

"Blonde or brunette, Mr. Sunderland?"

"…I don't know."

"We'll circle back to that," Takuma says. "Which of these is not wearing glasses?"

He chooses the left.

"Point to the figure with a green shirt."

He complies.

"Heart tattoo on the bicep."

That, too.

"Smiling?"

They're treating him like a child.

"If you would, please list three differences between these faces."

He stares at the twin cards. They aren't illustrations but Polaroids. In his left hand, Takuma holds an enlarged facsimile of the photo he keeps in his wallet.

Kept; the lake stole it from him. Where Toluca's minerals leached its color and the water crumbled its grain to dust, the image burns clearly, seared into his mind by the radiant thuribles of the fluorescents burning around them.

In a world where most faces elude him, she shines, clear and lucent.

The other hand shows a horrendously different woman. Pustules swell and blister her complexion like globules of ancient film burning to a close. Melting into a wax grotesquery of herself, deprived of her outer beauty, never abandoning her smile.

The whisper crawls from his vocal cords. "Why do you have pictures of my wife?" A cold trickle forms on the back of his neck as the doctor rises. "No— Who gave you those?"

"Thank you for your time, Mr. Sunderland."

---

Damn it, what kind of game do they think they're playing? They've kept him penned in here for way too long. Locking him in a dim room like this, it's insane. More than insane. It's criminal. Mary's coming home tomorrow. He can't be languishing in the hospital himself.

Confined to a padded mattress, James glances down his arm. Gray, waterlogged skin bundles a loose blanket of flesh over atrophied muscles, showing veins and bones in disgustingly salient detail. Blue vessels weave a fine net over his flesh. IVs have blossomed grotesque bruises along its expanse.

Crushing his lips together, James tears the adhesive. The needle he extracts stings like hell, bringing a startling smatter of crimson to the surface.

Monitors scream, a noise he extinguishes by pulling the cord. No need to alert the nurses.

His head throbs as he wheels his bare feet onto the tile.

God, he's exhausted.

In the corner stands a bureau. Rising on unsteady knees, he shambles toward it.

Swinging the door open, he finds a bright silver square staring back at him. He opts to ignore it as he bends down to put on what remains of his clothes. They've taken his jacket, but at least the undershirt doesn't feel too damp when he slips his arm through the sleeve.

First things first. He's got to find a payphone and call his father. He doesn't want to impose on Frank, but he harbors a faint hope that he might have a spare key to their apartment so he can let Mary inside, allowing her to get settled in with her new nurse.

Hell, he'll pay, if that's what his father wants. Frank will protest anything for family; it's more to ease James' mind. He can't have Mary waiting out in the hall.

Tomorrow, he resolves. He'll straighten this out then. Tell his good Samaritans thank you even though he can't stay. Board a bus for North Ashfield.

The prospect of travel makes him nervous. Mary can hardly stand as it is, and… Well. St. Jerome's can't loan her a wheelchair her insurance won't cover.

She could lean on the wall, he supposes, try to slumber out his arrival, but can he gamble on the landlord allowing her to loiter there? Besides, her circulation's poor. Her hands and feet swell with fluid. Even though he finds himself sweating in this balmy air, she'd shiver.

His head sags on its neck. James indulges a new habit he's formed since being admitted and slowly, deliberately pops his knuckles one at a time. His hands have become skeletal, corded things he doesn't recognize; the water has eroded the muscle and fat that used to reside beneath the skin.

Air pockets crackle the joints as he depresses, with long, thin fingers tapering into chalk-white nailbeds. He doesn't feel them. These can't be his. These are borrowed from someone else, a pair of gloves he's forced to wear, coated in small nicks and gouges.

(woodgrain biting into his flesh when he grips the)

He raises his head to face his reflection.

They alleged this was his as well. All of these unsolicited gifts offered him, as though he had to be introduced as a guest to his own body.

The staff hadn't taken too kindly to his refusals. The first time, they insisted. The second, he grew agitated. Please put that away. He'd made his request clear after the numerous hours they'd spent poking and prodding him to ensure his mind remained intact. His patience had worn thin in worry over how long they were keeping him from Mary.

Wasn't a little disorientation after a car accident to be expected? How many more hoops did they want him to jump? He's healthy, isn't he?

(more than she'll ever be)

The third, he lunged to snatch the mirror from the nurse, but missed. Instead, he wound up knocking it out of her hand, accidentally shattering glass in the process.

James froze when the pieces scattered diamonds across the tiles. Disembodied parts flooded the floor. Eyes, lips, ears. Nothing adding up.

The moment he realized what he'd done, a shameful heat suffused his cheeks, pricking needles under his skin. Look at yourself, he thought, the irony of his inability only pushing the thorns deeper. You're acting like a child. What would Mary think?

James gives empty gaze to the glass, the impostor on the other side mirroring his languid movements. Watched by a mask he cannot remove. The eyes that track him aren't really his own. Two broken-bottle green irises. Not too deep. Too shallow.

Fingers uncertain, he traces the contours of this alien terrain, starting from the bridge of his nose downwards, into the dip of his Cupid's bow. The soft streams of breath he releases through his nostrils tickle him.

A thin sheet of epidermis stretched over musculature, bone, and cartilage. It feels too dead an inheritance to claim.

As he watches this strange reflection mimic his movements, he suffers a dark but fleeting impulse to harm it. If he hooked his dirty nails into the flesh and peeled away his doppelganger's false mask, shed his snake's skin layer by layer, there may be a chance he'd reveal something truer underneath.

(or maybe you would find nothing)

How I bind my fics - Part 3

We ended part two with an assembled text block, which is perfectly functional as a book, but we're here for the hardbacks

Hardbacks start as greyboard for me, 3mm (1/8 inch), and we have to do a little maths to work out the size. We want a 3mm overhang around the top, bottom, and outside edge, which sounds simple (and it is for the top and bottom), but for the width we need to take a few mm away too, so the book can open flat. In this case, it ended up being 4mm narrower than the text block

We cut the cover and spine boards using our trusty L-ruler and knife, although sometimes I also score the line I want to cut and use the chisel

I like to make Bradel bound books, so we need to make a "hinge" for the spine to connect to the cover - the video explains it better than I could, but essentially it's a piece of thickish paper (120gsm) that we glue the boards to

We then need to line the inside of the covers, again with 120gsm paper, leaving about an inch unglued closest to the spine

These flaps are what the textblock's flaps will sit under later when we come to glue it up

It's starting to look like a book!

We can now move on to designing the covers. One day I'll get a A3 printer and be able to do full spread covers, but for now I break it into three - the front, the back, and the spine.

These are again designed in inDesign, and in this case I've made a background and a foreground for the front and back. This is because the backgrounds will be inkjet printed, and the foreground will be laser printed over top

(A higher res version of the cover background - I've tried to tally the fic to Erin's Diary, and hope I've shown Erin's personality a bit - there's a point when she stops labelling it a going to "Practice", and starts going to "James'"...)

The spine is laser printed directly onto coloured 150gsm paper - slightly thicker, as this bit will be under the most stress of the cover

The reason we're laser printing over top is so we can use toner reactive foil - it'll stick to the laser print but not the inkjet one

It's simply a case of taping the foil sheets down tight over the areas we want to foil, masking areas we don't (although if you're doing two colours like we are, my experimentation says do them together), then feeding it through a hot laminator before peeling the foil sheet off

(ignore the masking tape - its on areas we're cutting off in a minute)

Next we're cutting and gluing these pages onto the boards - the little boxes you can see jutting out from the edges are registration marks so I can pencil in on the revese where to line up the boards - we use the bone folder again to smooth them out, work out any air bubbles, and to push the paper into the nooks and crannies

Now we need to cut the corners, using my handy-dandy 3D printed template

We cut them so that when we fold it over we get a nice crisp fold

On that note, we need to glue the edges and fold them over, making sure to get the glue right into the edge of the board

We're very nearly there now - just need to wed the textblock to the casing

We start by dry fitting the block in the case, then carefully opening one cover and gluing the tabs down, followed by the other, again smoothing with the bone folder

Finally, we need to carefully glue down the endpapers to the board (no matter how careful or which order you do them in, the front paper always gets a little messy for some reason)

Et voilà! We have a book - it'll live in the press overnight while the glue dries, but once it's ready it'll take it's place between "In Their Thirties" (which I'm tempted to rebind now I have foil for the cover), and "Vacation James"

I'm sure there are seasoned bookbinders reading this going "No, you fool!", but I'm happy with the outcome. It's fun, and I love being able to have something in my hands at the end of it; I may not be able to draw fanart, but I can make something to show my love for my favourite creators!

Thanks again to @areseebee and @derrygirlstrash/@carouselunique for writing this really fun fic, and to @imstressedx for planting the notion in my head to do a step-by-step

Now, on to the next fic!

Common Mistakes to Avoid When Working with Plywood

One of the most adaptable materials in construction, plywood is used in building, making furniture, and interior decoration. However, working with plywood can be tough if you are unaware of some of the great mistakes that can make high-quality results take an exit. One must identify all these mistakes and effectively prevent them from leading to poor results in any project. If you are with the best plywood manufacturers in Kerala, like Suntree Plywood, it is always easy to avoid these errors for better output in your projects.

1. Choosing the Wrong Type of Plywood 

One of the most horrible mistakes is to select the wrong type of plywood. Each of them has its own purpose.

BWP (Boiling Water Proof) Plywood: It is the best for moist areas like bathroom and kitchen.

Commercial Plywood: Most suited for dry areas such as for interior furniture.

Hardwood Plywood: Used for applications where high strengths and high durability are key factors, such as cabinetry and flooring.

2. Avoiding Moisture Protection 

Generally speaking,  moisture can cause plywood walls or delaminates if that plywood is not water-resistant plywood. Most DIYers and professionals forget to seal it along the edges and the surfaces causing damages over a period.

The solution: Use waterproof coatings, edge banding, or sealants to plywood element exposure, particularly for outdoor or moisture-prone applications.

3. Poor Cutting Methods 

Incorrect cuts splinter edges and waste material, not to mention using the wrong blade or not supporting the plywood properly for cutting and then ruining what could have been a great piece.

Best: Fine-tooth blade and support the plywood on both sides when cutting. Buy quality plywood from good manufacturers, especially the one in Kerala; they have good standards on minimizing splintering.

4. Not Paying Attention to Grain Direction

Plywood will generally come with grain directions apparent on its surface veneer. A misalignment could affect both the look and strength of the project in question.

Expert Insight: Cutting and assembling with plywood grain direction always gives that professional look and enhanced strength.

5. Cutting Corners with Sanding/Finishing

Most people fail to sand or directly apply finishes onto surfaces leading to a rough, uneven surface affecting aesthetics and durability of a plywood project.

Solution: Sand the plywood using fine-grain sandpaper and apply primer, paint, or varnish afterward. Good quality plywood from the reliable trusted manufacturer makes finishing work easier.

6. Going for Poor Quality Plywood

Going for inferior plywood quality could simply mean poor durability, warping, or the most catastrophic case-structural failures. Low-quality plywood would show up in the shapes of voids, weak glue bonds, and uneven veneers.

Recommendation: Always buy plywood only from the best plywood manufacturers like Suntree Plywood of Kerala and avoid plywood from other manufacturers in Kerala.

7. Not Pre-Drilling Holes for Screws 

When screws are driven into plywood without pre-drilled holes, they will cause the de-lamination or splitting of ply sheets, rendering them structurally weak.

Fix: Always pre-drill a hole that has an internal diameter slightly smaller than that of its screw to prevent splitting and secure fit.

8. Not Considering Expansion and Contraction

All wood products will expand and contract with changes in humidity. An absence of allowance for movement could create distortion in the form of buckling or gaps.

Advice: Leave an allowance of about 1-2 mm between plywood panels to allow for expansion and contraction.

Conclusion

The working of plywood gives excellent finishes if one avoids these wrong practices. Right plywood selection in combination with correct procedures and quality raw materials from the best plywood manufacturers in Kerala will guarantee that the projects are tough and attractive.

Manufacturers like Suntree Plywood offer a product line wide enough to ensure that you can always find the kind of plywood that you need. With the right armamentarium your projects will be perfect then!

Discover the Advantages of Choosing X-Bond Microcement for Your Interior Projects

Microcement has become a popular choice for modern interior design. X-Bond Microcement is particularly noteworthy among the available options because of its durability, visual appeal, and versatility. This blog  will discuss the various advantages of using X-Bond Microcement for interior projects, which makes it a great choice for builders, designers, and homeowners alike.

What is X-Bond Microcement?

An innovative overlay product called X-Bond Microcement is created by combining natural stone with latex polymer. It can be placed over pre existing surfaces to create a seamless concrete appearance without requiring demolition. X-bond microcement works well for both residential and commercial applications because it can modify a variety of spaces, including joinery, floors, walls, and ceilings.

2. Seamless Aesthetic

Grout joints and lines are eliminated with a continuous layer of X-Bond Microcement coating. This results in a smooth, stylish look that is easy to maintain and clean. The smooth surface brings an elegant look to any space and is especially attractive for modern designer.

3. Minimal Thickness

X-Bond Microcement, applied at a thickness of about 2-3 mm, is a perfect choice for projects that require preserving existing floor heights or architectural features. Its thinness allows it to be applied over surfaces that already exist without changing door heights or floor level.

4. Durability and Flexibility

The durability of X-Bond Microcement is remarkable, even with its thin application. It contains latex polymers, which give buildings the ability to adapt to cracking as they settle or move. This enables them for use in high-traffic residential and commercial environments. Additionally, for more than 30 years of usage, X-Bond has shown no signs of delamination.

5. Waterproof Capabilities

When SEMCO Liquid Membrane™ and X-bond Microcement are paired together it provides excellent waterproofing capabilities. This makes it suitable for moist areas such as bathrooms, toilets, swimming pools and kitchens. In wet regions, homeowners can safely install X-Bond without fear of degradation or damage.

6. Quick Installation Process

X-Bond Microcement takes less time to install as compared to traditional standard flooring solutions. A 100 m² project normally takes approximately five days to finish. Because of its effectiveness, daily life is not disturbed during reconstruction.

7. Customizable Finishes

X-Bond Microcement is available in a variety of colors and finishes, homeowners can design their spaces according to their own unique personal choices. X-Bond offers plenty of design options, whether you want a matte or glossy finish or want to generate custom shade.

8. Eco-Friendly Option

If you're looking for an environmentally friendly option, X-Bond Microcement is the perfect choice. It not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of your space but also prioritizes sustainability, making it an excellent option for eco-conscious projects. By renovating existing surfaces rather than removing them, you reduce waste and the environmental effects caused by traditional renovation methods. This environmentally friendly strategy fits with the expanding trends in eco-conscious design.

Ideal Spaces for X-Bond Microcement

X-Bond Microcement can be used in a variety of ways in your house or place of business:

Residential Spaces: Perfect for bedrooms, kitchens, bathrooms, and gardens.

Commercial Spaces: Ideal for cafes, restaurants, shops, and offices.

Should I Glue Vinyl Sheet Flooring?

Vinyl sheet flooring installed using adhesive can be stable and long-lasting, holding up against wear and tear over time. This technique provides stability and lowers the chance of shifting over time, making it perfect for locations with a lot of foot traffic or wetness. However, in order to produce a smooth, even application, sufficient surface preparation is essential. Adhesion procedures and adhesive choices must be done according to manufacturer instructions for a successful and long-lasting installation. Vinyl sheet flooring is a suitable option for both home and business areas since glue can improve its performance and longevity.

Glue Down Vinyl Flooring:

As the name implies, glue is needed to install glue-down vinyl flooring. Although this installation process is not as quick and easy as click-lock vinyl flooring, it may be less expensive. Each board must be adhered to the subfloor with adhesive. Glue-down planks are a suitable choice in situations where the subfloor may not be exactly even because they can be utilized with both plywood and concrete subfloors.

The advantages of glue-down vinyl:

There are a few reasons as to why glue-down vinyl is preferable to the other choices. Glue-down flooring is a common choice for big and commercial settings since it requires less expansion than floating flooring. A floating floor also requires transitions, which a glue-down alternative eliminates.

In places where the substrate may not be completely level, glue-down vinyl flooring can also be utilized. With glue-down vinyl flooring, an underlayment is also not necessary.

How to install vinyl:

1. Prior to anything else, you must measure the space in order to install new vinyl flooring. Recall that we will figure this out when you submit your drawings and measurements, so don't include any wiggle room in your measurements. Include any fixtures you may have in your space, such as a washbasin or toilet, in the overall measures of the space, as these will need to have the vinyl sheet removed.

2. Next, make an effort to remove as much furniture as you can from the space. Eliminating any potential obstructions will make the process of placing the large sheet of vinyl into place a little bit easier.

3. You can draw the shape of the room onto your new vinyl by using the old vinyl floor you're removing as a template. Very useful if you have a small room because you may cut it to fit in a place where you have more room.

4. Ensure that your subfloor is clear of dirt, dry, smooth, and structurally sound. If you've torn off old vinyl or laminate, you may need to scrape off the old adhesive.

5. To enable the vinyl to get to room temperature, move the roll into the designated room at least 24 to 48 hours before installation.

6. When unrolling your vinyl, align the longest side of the sheet with the longest accessible wall and place it around 25 mm from the skirting board.

7. Since your rooms' skirting boards are frequently not perfectly straight, a scribing gauge will aid in the vinyl's ability to sit flush against the wall. Find an off-cut piece of wood, then hammer a nail into it approximately 30 mm from one end until the tip just protrudes from the opposite side to create a scribing gauge.

8. To softly score the skirting's outline onto the vinyl, move the gauge carefully along the skirting with the nail. After cutting along this line with your Stanley knife, slide the vinyl up against the skirting board.

9. To make the vinyl lie flat on interior corners, cut a tiny triangle out of each corner.

10. To create a distinct crease, press the vinyl between the skirting and the floor with the bolster chisel.

11. Holding the knife at a small angle, cut along the seam with your straight edge and knife.

12. If there are any external corners, cut the vinyl exactly where it meets the floor, then trim away any extra, leaving 50–100 mm of excess vinyl at the skirting boards.

13. With a bolster chisel, press into the angle formed by the skirting and the floor. Using an angled knife to achieve a clean finish, hold your straight edge against the crease and cut along it.

14. The vinyl sheet needs to be adhered to the floor once it has been laid completely. Lift the vinyl's edges, apply glue around the room's perimeter, and then press down to apply loose-lay vinyl. Roll half of the vinyl back before spreading glue across the floor to ensure it is fully adhered. Replacing the vinyl, move to the opposite side of the room, and continue the process there. After repositioning the entire vinyl floor, use a soft broom to press it flat.

15. It's a good idea to use silicone to cover the floor's borders when installing vinyl in a bathroom to make sure the surface is totally waterproof.

Vinyl Installation Around Door Frames:

Cut down to where the vinyl meets the floor with your Stanley knife, then continue cutting at equally spaced intervals around the door frame. Remove any surplus material by cutting, but leave about 50 to 100 mm of tail at the bottom so that you may trim more precisely. Press the vinyl into the angle formed by the door frame and the floor with the bolster chisel to create a crease, and then cut along it. Install a door bar to secure the vinyl flooring in place after making a straight cut across the doorway to finish it about halfway beneath it.

Putting Vinyl Around A Radiator Pipe:

Using your knife, cut a straight line from the vinyl's edge to the pipe. Next, repeatedly make small cuts around the pipe's base until the vinyl is flat. For a tidy, expert finish, trim off any excess.

Installing Vinyl At Exterior Corners:

To trim excess vinyl from external corners, cut straight down the vinyl's edge to the floor, leaving 50–100 mm of extra vinyl turned up at the skirting. Press into the angle where the skirting meets the floor with a bolster chisel. To achieve a clean finish, hold the knife at a small angle and cut along each crease with the straightedge pressed against it.
