If you are a bookbinder with tools or equipment to buy, sell or exchange, then you have come to the right place!

If you are looking for tools or equipment, scroll through the entries below. If you find what you are looking for, use the email link to make contact. If you have tools or equipment to offer, then complete and send the entry form. Your entry will appear at the top of the list on this page. Email me when you get a response, and I will remove your entry from the list. You can also email me if you need to change any details in your entry.

If you want to advertise your bookbinding services, please keep it brief. Ditto for bookbinding courses. For long entries, email me and I will set up a link for you from my Discover Bookbinding page. Long or irrelevant entries in The Bookbinder's Toolbox are an inconvenience for other users, and will be removed without notice.

Don't worry if you experience some delay between posting your entry and seeing it appear on the page. It's just the server processing your request in the background.

Thanks to Laura Lemay for providing the original guestbook script that forms the basis of this service. If you're interested in writing your own CGI scripts, Laura's book Teach Yourself Web Publishing with HTML in a Week (last updated to cover HTML 4) still provides an excellent introduction. These days Laura seems to have switched from writing books to blogs, and from html and perl to Dreamweaver. Sign of the times I guess.

Printer’s Type and Borders, etc

I have 3 fonts of Printer’s type and an array of small blocks which printers used for borders, but which can be used for designs.

The type is all foundry metal, and although it is not the hardness of brass it will surely do enough impressions to suit most amateurs. There is a sans serif 36pt, capitals and smalls, with numbers and punctuation. Rather dirty as has been stored under a bench for years, but will clean readily. The second set is serif face, not unlike Times Roman, slight italic, capitals but no smalls, with numbers and punctuation. Again rather dirty, but will clean. The third is18 pt Sans Serif Italic face, capitals and smalls, with numbers and punctuation. Same condition. I’m asking $50, $40 and $50 respectively plus postage. I can provide photos and also tables of numbers of each letter.

The borders, etc are mainly in sizes 18 pt x 18 pt down to 12 pt x 6 pt and even 6 pt square. They are a mixture of monotype and foundry type. I’m offering these at $25 / square inch, random selection by me (but with some guidance as to what you are seeking)), plus postage of course.
