I just watched it and wow 😭 I’m still a newbie fan (started watching when the finger glove video came out) so I love getting to see these older videos!!
Wow!
It's good but probably could have done without the lights/light up emblem.
You and patty gurdy sound alike. I mean this as a compliment.
Have you ever had a collecter reach out to buy your custom books?
She can craft, she can leatherwork, she's adept in metallurgy...damn, you're the ultimate role model for me.
Yea she is the ultimate role model for you.....
You know.
@@shikhamondal2348no I do not know please enlighten me
@@shikhamondal2348 Projecting much? Also, even if they were smitten on top, that doesn't devalue their admiration for skill, craft and learning.
did steve from minecraft type this?
I can do a bit of metalwork myself, leather work for me has always been shoddy but functional.
I am truly inspired too.
Every author would be happy to let you do that
If i ever got my storyvdone, i'd ve *ecstatic* if i saw someone do this

Hehe saw what you did there
Can confirm. I started re-covering my Harry Potter series and my sister asked me to keep the 5th books cover bc it was her childhood and nostalgic as well as ✨special✨
Tbh I don't blame her
I love how you are casually like “I did the entire ancient bookbinding process perfectly… anyway then I took some wood”
so much craftsmanship from so many disciplines, honestly very inspiring to see
She looks 10 years my junior, and seeing this really shows I've wasted my life.

@@personalsigh by that logic, human isn't unisex. congrats, you've successfully denied all women of their human rights. what do you have planned next?
Bro just casually turned it into a forbidden spellbook
gal I think.
@@truthhunterhawk3932thats crazy how no one cares
@@truthhunterhawk3932 True, but she has earned the onorary status of "bro" due to her mad skills, as well as appreciation and respoct for the classics.
@@coadacatalin4510 "Cars" fan? Yeah, I get you
@@bagek thats alright, because I don't particularly care either
That is the PERFECT cover for the Lord of the Rings. Gondorian, Lothlorien and classic elements. DAMN.
Not quite. To be perfect, the Red Book of Westmarch needs to be clad in red...
that book will give me scoliosis if i carry it around with my backpack

That looks so juvenile. It looks like an 8 year old bought a Harry Potter plastic toy.
@@user-io6pj8bz8h🎶shut the hell uuuuupp~🎶
That’s nuts. If I had the money, theirs a couple books I’d love to commission this kind of work on. Simply beautiful.
Same
Why commission when you can learn it yourself
@@Steph.98114 all the equipment is so expensive for something you'd do like three times, especially when they are more likely to get a better outcome from an artist. Thats not even addressing the time it would take when your career isnt in craftsmanship and you have other things in your life to worry about. Weird question ngl.
@@octavia8836 not a weird question, all kids have shop class where I am from and when I was 11 all of us got to do knife handles and sheaths. Leatherwork and copper inlays. All knifes looked good at the end. You don't need a lasercutter for 3mm wood. A jigsaw and time works well too. It will not be as good as Nerdforges result but it will look good enough.
Skilltree also did several scratch "tomes" for dnd and/or LARP.
This is how i imagine something like the Silmarillion would look in universe
It would be really cool if you add one of those built-in bookmarks where it just has a ribbon attached to it, it would also be cool if you put a ring tied to the end of the ribbon
That way you can keep the ring of power with the book as well as make it useful
Now that books value went up a few thousand dollars. That's some professional work.
Calm your cringe down,
No one would pay thousand dollars.
@@hummingbir6 You underestimate the crazies of the book collector community.....
@@ryukin_iiiBook collectors are collecting vintage original books, not regular books dolled up to just look pretty. The value vomes from the originality
Easton press makes a leather bound LOTR 5 book collection with 22kt gold embossing, foiled pages, actually sewn in, and it’s like $400
@IDiggPattyMayonnaise it's not the value of the book itself. It's the value of her skills and knowledge of leather work, metal casting, etc and the time and effort it goes into doing something like this. Hand made things are far more valuable and expensive than mass produced factory made things. Especially when they are done well and are one of a kind.
I'm embarrassed to admit that it took me till the very end to notice you were holding a goddam garden trowel
Garden trowel
A Spade is a Rectangular, Long handled object used for digging
@@davidkingsley3244 close enough
I didn't notice until your comment 😅
I'm embarrassed to admit that it took till reading your comment to notice she were holding a goddman spade
@@davidkingsley3244 ah shit, you're right.
Fixed it.
But aren't trowels *also* used for digging?
“I wanted to give my book a real leather cover, anyways, one silversmithing later, here we are!”
It's really cool that you combined traditional technology with modern one.
The hair coloring change makes me respect just how long this took. Keep up the amazing work and craftsmanship ❤
Omg yeah! I DIDN'T NOTICE- Tysm for telling us lol
One of her friends is gonna come over and see her with an entire library filled with aincent looking books 💀

it's in the game
Vvvvrrrr (Xbox startup)
She's like a book wizard!
That's an amazing idea to make your favourite books truly unique to you.
Damn, as a trained bookbinder (God this job is dying) I'm really impressed by that work!
Very well done
I've always wanted to learn bookbinding, it seems like the perfect job for a book lover.
@@jacqulyynw yeah me too , i wonder where i can learn it
Thirding having always wanted to learn it and wondering where to?
@@littleleakyleakythere if you're in Europe you can apply for a cap in Normandy or paris in "reliure" or there's a DNMADE in école Estienne. Otherwise there's le Vésinet but you have to pay for those and then you always have the option to ask a bookbinder if they'd take you as an apprentice.
Honestly, this sounds like a perfect candidate for renewing interest via social media. Set up a UA-cam channel, place your phone on a tripod while you're working and just have at it. Make it calm, with lower range vocal tones and maybe some voice over narration to describe your processes, and I guarantee there are people who would watch it.
“Sorry, I will be a bit late to the book club I have to charge my LOTR book.”
Valid.
I really hate to come into an awesomely perfect project like this, and start talking about "YoU ShOuLd HaVe".... but she really should have put a few LED's along the edges (and maybe have a little slide that let's them raise just about the depth of the pages) so it could light itself up too.
I only say this because she already broke out the LED's for the cover, a couple on the top or side would just be fucking amazing.
That's a really nice talent. I'd love a full set
Stitching your book pages together is actually good for the book. It extends the book’s life and its pages do not rip off as easy as glued books.
That book is truly magical now. I am in total awe of the craftmanship behind it
Literally looks like a fantasy spellbook. Read some ancient text from its pages and summon a miniature dragon as a familiar.
you should do book cover commissions where people pay you to do that to their books because holy shit this is gorgeous
Definitely... I mean wow
I'd love that on one of my copies of LOTR
She does commissions on other various projects like dnd terrain.
I would think $400 or more. Just guessing.
very high craftsmanship right there, that book is amazing
Wow. I would love to hire someone to do that type of work on certain books. Truly displays the treasure of the contents within by such an exquisite cover.
You definitely didn't massacre that book, you brought it to LIFE! That's amazing!
If only Tolkien could see how much we love his work.
South Park nice
@@RobotMaster2737huh?
AMEN!
Looks awesome! I bet it wouldn't be hard to add some animation or fade in/fade out to the LEDs, which I think would add a lot.
Your videos make book binding. So interesting. Which is amazing cuz like I wouldn't imagine that hobby as a super interesting thing until I watched your videos
It's *soooo* gorgeous! It's giving old, classy, elegant, witchy, Victorian library and that custom clasp?! *chef's kiss* 🤌🏽 SO GOOD! 😭😍
it looks tacky as hell
Tolkien just shed a tear in heaven, goddamnit that's beautiful ❤️

“I want a good traditional binding”
With LED’s.
I swear you are one of the most creative people ive ever seen in my life. Im loving everything you put out. insane everytime
That is by far the most gorgeous book cover I've ever seen!!
I wish I could buy it for my boyfriend but it should honestly be $2-$3k
The trowel as microphone is just the cherry on top of this whole video ❤
Odd, I only knew the word trowel for masonry work. Had no idea the gardening tool was called that too.
I love to admit I only noticed this after seeing your comment 😂
Fantastic, i love to see craftsmanship like this
I love how creative she is and I love her builds can’t wait to see more 🗡️🪈🌹
You’ve truly done this epic justice, well done. I’m crying, It’s so beautiful😭
Not to be a dick or anything but I bet really stressful emotional things make you snot bubble cry lol
@@brandonreed9508 no, but fair judgment lol
" i wanted to rebind my favourite book, so i became a blacksmith" XD
Good shit
I love how you simplify it unlike others. Thank you for being an amazing Contant creator. You are beautiful in your work is amazing. Keep up the great work.
This will be found in an old backwoods library 300 years from now and seen as a classic piece of handmade craftsmanship.
I like that she's still using the garden tool as a mic. 😆😅😂 It just works somehow for her.
Why did I not notice that
...I had to restart the short to make sure you weren't messing with me
I didnt even notice it until you pointed it out lmao!!
@@midtwilightbluesame
I never even questioned it, always saw it in her hand but never once did I think about it XD
Okay..
That's actually really freaking cool for just redoing a book cover. Truly amazing.
You’re an artist! This is amazing!
now this is art
That's one of the prettiest, most traditional book covers I've ever seen. Looks amazing, kudos
And the person who made it isn’t bad looking either 😉
I'm so inspired by you, Martina. I just tried leather tooling for the first time and made elven dragon bracers using your armor video, and they've turned out amazing. Thank you for being a part of the maker community!
I'm so glad the lost art of book binding and restoration is making rounds in UA-cam. I make my own book of shadows and this is a real inspiration to me seeing your custom. 👀
I love your videos, I discovered your channel when I was battling cancer, your videos kept entertained as I couldn’t do much as far as moving due to being extremely weak from malnutrition before I was diagnosed so my muscles at the time wasted away plus when I was hospitalized I ended up aspirating which prompted me being rushed to the icu and intubated it was a nightmare for me but watching your videos made it bearable since a lot of the projects focused around things I like such as video games!
I'm sure if Tolkien himself saw this he'd be gobsmacked
This is the female role model we need.
Now I want to make an entire bookshelf of books like this but how I identify them is by different symbols on the back/different clasps.
The fact you know how to do all this is truly what is amazing to me! This is is sooo cool and I love the creativity
I wish I could like this 1000x more. That was freaking amazing & clearly a labour of love. Beautiful work!!!!
This is an awesome comment because I was just thinking this book could be sold for like $1,000.
@@sammie3277 oh heck yeah!!! At least! It’s truly gorgeous - I love how some people are getting back into this almost lost art of book binding. I took a course for it in high school alllllll those many years ago, lol, and just standard hand binding is a LOT of work, never mind actual works of art like this one.
The creativity of so many people on social media is just…🤯😱😍
This right here is every book lovers' epiphany 😭♥️♥️♥️♥️
Not 100% sure what word you were looking for but epiphany ain't it, that's for sure.
What the other guy said. Not sure epiphany is the word you meant here
Epitome, probably.
That word... I don't think it means what you think it means.
@@silversamurai0267 you don't think or you don't know lmao
Damn, thats some craftsmanship....kudos!
❤ seeing you with that mini shovel as a mic... I'm dying for a diy microphone from your channel! You deserve a mic matching you and your greatness!
Damn a book this beautiful could actually get me to start reading again
I'll probably just stare and admire the cover tbh 😂
U dont judge book by its cover,ever.Rookie ....
@@chameleon8844right?
This is the most breathtakingly stunning book cover redesign i’ve ever seen, and I am also a LOTR fan! I love this so much :)
That's a real exclusive edition
You're rebinding of these books is always very beautiful.
This deserves more praise then it has rn, this is a piece of art, elegant and beautiful. A masterpiece and show of great craftsmanship.
You make me want to chase my childhood dream again.. remade every book cover of every book that i like
Amazing craftsmanship
That chunk of paper looks like it holds a whole other world inside.
Which, in a sense or a few, it does.
You should dye the page edges silver, that would make the look complete
Also, maybe paint the leaves on the block edge?
Cool idea
Thats a good idea but in my opinion it would be a little too much. I think she she should keep the book still looking like pages and not stray away the attention from the cover.
The book deserves your exquisite craftsmanship. Its one genius' homage to another!
should have someone paint the sides of the pages!! looks sick
i need this as a sketchbook
Now if only Amazon and Wizards of the Coast cared about Tolkiens work this much
Im probably missing something but how are Amazon and WotC related? Or tie back to this? I genuinely wanna know cause this comment stook out to me and Im clueless lol
@@izzyq9200amazon made the "rings of power" show and WotC just did a magic the gathering X LotR cards. Thats all i got for context, maybe this helps.
@@izzyq9200 Wizards of the Coast decided to completely disregard and disrespect the original vision Tolkien had for several of his characters in their depictions of several of the characters. For instance, they made Aragorn black despite him being SPECIFICALLY described in the book as being fair skinned. Simply because they wanted to “be more inclusive”.🤢🤮
@@defendedshadow9664 seems kinda weird to reduce Aragorn’s entire character down to his race when it’s irrelevant to the entire story
@@elizacevert4017 It’s a decent part of his character since he’s intended to be an homage to a scottish king iirc
This is jaw droppingly beautiful. What an incredible piece.
This is awesome, i like that you built it legit, so cool!
🤙✨️
I'm a nerd too (read the rest of my comment if you want to know how) but dang, the dedication
Okay so
I'm working on real life spiderman web shooters. Initially I was going to come at it from the comics stand point by trying to use different chemicals that, when mixed together, would replicate spider silk. However, while being nearly impossible, it's also highly illogical because the chemicals (salicylic acid C₇H₆O₃, toluene C₆H₅CH₃, methanol CH3OH, carbon tetrachloride CCl₄, potassium carbonate K2CO3, and ethyl acetate CH3CO2CH2CH3, simplified to C4H8O2 all held in 16 gram cartridges shot with 100 psi) wouldn't really do anything
Because, spider silk is mostly proteins. “Spider Silk primarily consists of proteins that possess large quantities of nonpolar and hydrophobic amino acids like glycine or alanine, but for example, no or only very little tryptophan. In comparison to common cellular enzymes, it is evident that silk proteins exhibit a quite aberrant amino acid composition”
So then I started looking at what makes actual silk possible from other animals. So then I got to the protein in dragline silk whicg is fibroin (Mr 200,000-300,000) which is a combination of the proteins spidroin 1 and spidroin 2. The exact composition of these proteins depends on factors including species and diet. Fibroin consists of approximately 42% glycine and 25% alanine as the major amino acids.
Now finally I'm to where I decided on Carbon nanotubes for tensile strengthz rigidity, and it's light weight being mixed with the proper polymer to add elasticity. So I'd have to figure out the ratio of the mixture as well as how to store it into small cartridges that can be put into a mechanism to spin it (for control) and shoot it. And mixture being liquid and hardening into a semi solid when exposed to air
Theoretically I could make all this. But there would be many issues. Storing it for one would be quite tough. Pressurization of the cartridges to shoot it would be a pain. And depending on how it's made, couldn't come into contact with human skin without causing serious damage
She’s like a dnd artificer, she knows how to use all the tools
LOTR has a special place in my heart and always will, this is amazing I wish I was talented enough to do this, looks amazing
Dont wish do it, JUST DO IT make your dreams a reailty I believe in you
The need/collector in me is filled with envy! Beautiful craftsmanship!❤
I love that you're living my dream. I love watching your content. I've been with ya for years! Still thinking about those skyrim tomes I messaged you about all those years ago! 🎉 keep creeeeating !!
Wow my nerd envy is beyond comprehension. Imagine having a thought of „this book could use a newer cover“ and then just doing all this. Very impressive stuff
Book authors should hire you for whatever this is called in the book printing process.
Always loved the potential creativity of book covers and cover art.
It's amazing talented people like you that keeps me going! Thank you....
I wish you sold these, they'd be the perfect gift for so many people ❤
You have an amazing talent. It's so underrated and unique. You deserve more!!
I love seeing the beautiful, passion-driven talent individual folks share.... humans beings can be so amazing.
Never have I ever seen such a masterpiece
That's so dope. You do some of the coolest projects.
this truly shows the variety of expertise skills you have. I couldn't even begin to try this
This girl can do everything for real😭
The amount of pain I felt when they took off the cover, and spine just felt so bad
The doors of Durin would look insane with LEDs behind them
Talent, and passion for you're work. Pure artwork.
Yro’ue

Holy crap… you take your Tolkien very seriously.
It turned out beautifully! ❤
This is the best thing I’ve seen so far. Looks really cool.
that's so badass. i cannot believe there are people out there this skilled
You have every reason to be proud of your art.
This is LEGIT. Tolkien would be proud.
Oh my gosh when my book is finished I'm definitely coming to you for the book coverings
