Another way to alter books

I have carved niches and a few pages in an altered book before but the idea of carving the whole book intriqued me.

Starting at the back of the book I clipped every 5 to 8 pages together.  The picture on the right hand side was what helped me decide.

The Zipper is my favorite.

I used 4 fresh blades. Easy to just snap off the dull one.

Gutenburg press.
