After that I glue the inside and put another coat on the outside and let it dry. They I put glue around the rim of the pages on the top glued the bottom to the page cover and than the top page I saved to it and cut that out that way it is all hollow and Only ops from front page. About 3-4 hours of manual labor total. But my friends by for 20-50 dollars depending on the quality and size.

Drilled four holes in each corner of the hollow. Then cut it out with the saws all (I tried a jigsaw, but it wouldn't fit with the clamps). Not the neatest job, but it worked Here’s how I did it… folded the cover back, got two pieces of plywood (atleast the size of the pages) and clamped them on either side of the pages with a bunch of C clamps.

It only takes an hour to do by hand with the worst of tools. I used to make these when I was what? Seven? Gah. It only takes an hour to do by hand with the worst of tools.

That would make things a lot eaiser. I want to make one now too! Someone left a comment about using a dremal to make the cut. Would this work good? Oh I definitly want to see pictures with a jigsaw.

I'll be damned if I'm going to waste several hours over the course of several days slicing through a book with a box cutter. How about this: 1.) Glue all the pages. I mean drown them in glue so it dries completely solid. 2.) Go to sleep 3.) Drill several holes through the pages (taking care to keep the cover unmarked) 4.) Jig saw that mofo.
