Rubber Back Binding Press This press has been created for book binding without sewing and allows the user to glue loose sheets to a book. Maximum back side length is 34cm. The press is made of birch plywood with a brown non-adhesive melamine top coating. Two table clamps are included for binding oblong.
Universal Pricking Gauge This gauge has a row of 1.8 mm wide awl holes at 16 mm for 15 mm binding ribbons. The knurled bolt at the end allows for adjusting the position of the pricking holes in regard to the back of the magazine. Using a pencil, the user can mark the selected holes to simplify the pricking. The holes in the triangular prick bar guide the awl straight into the back of the magazine. The gauge is made of lacquered beech. This is a terrific tool for clean binding work.

Case binding tool One of the most difficult actions which have to be done precisely is the assembly of the book block into the case. The squares must be equally adjusted and the pasting process has to be executed quickly because the moist of the glue curls fly-leafs. With this tool you adjust the position of the book block in the case for assembling. The squares of the book can be adjusted by sliding the stops with the knurled knobs. These stops accept a maximum of 3.5 mm cardboard thickness for the case. The two square top stops control the parallel position of the case. Book blocks in thickness measuring from 7.5 to 60 mm can be assembled in their cases on this tool. The assembling tool measures 360 x 250 mm and is made of unlacquered birch plywood.
