finished!

Taking the finished books out of the press, also known as the best/worst part. Not too many glue mistakes this time, and my favorite (the green end sheet with red book cloth) turned out pretty well. I learned the hard way with the psychedelic pink and yellow one that thinner paper expands more, so I should have maybe shaved a little sliver off the endsheet before gluing. Gavin taught me a cool trick for lining these ones up- since you can't press them against the spine as easily with a paper spine when casing in,you can glue the end sheet, turn it over, hold it at an angle with the foredge lower than the spine edge in order to line up the corner, then tip it down laying the aligned foredge first,followed by the spine.
