To celebrate 10,000 subscribers, I created a binding like no other.
It begins with folding five signatures, followed by crafting a custom hardcover,
Then, through a carefully pierced spine, I sew a unique pattern: the number 10,000 and the YouTube play button, all with linen thread.
This video is a quiet celebration of craft for this special milestone,
I thank all of you who’ve joined me and supported me along the way.
