Sewing in the Signatures, Part 3 of 4

Howdy,

I have posted part 3 out of 4 of my mini series on how I make a lot of my books. In this video I show you how I sew the signatures to the backing. It's easier to watch than explain with words...

I’m still trying to figure out my sound, my new mic’s cover is the fuzzy bit in the lower left corner, and my video got cut off while I was filming the sewing process for the second time. So, since I want these videos mainly for my own reference, it is what is, and if someone else gets some value out of them, great!
