The Piercing Cradle That Hides a Secret Inside

Why buy a piercing cradle when you can build one that's better? In this video I'll show you how to make a simple piercing cradle from offcuts and scrap board you already have lying around and then turn it into something no store-bought version can do. This build started with a question from Molly in our community. I'll walk you through every step: cutting the triangles, using cloth strips as hinges so the boards fold into a clean V, adding a magnet closure, and fitting a ruler that locks it shut and doubles as a measuring edge for making new templates. The best part? The hidden space inside. All those old templates that never had a home finally live in one place, tucked safely inside your own tool. The difference between wanting to make books and actually making them is on the other side of this link: https://idoagassi.com/community Inside Agassi Bookbinding Community (ABC) you'll find courses, resources, monthly challenges, and a community of people ready to answer your questions and grow alongside you.
