Production for On Being a California Poet -- Part 1

After some paper cutting and folding, the first step in binding On Being a California Poet is tipping on the endpapers. Here is Sabina tipping an endpaper. Notice in the background the paint tray and foam roller used for applying the glue.

Next the signatures need will have sewing stations pre-pierced. We do this with the ingenious and well crafted Tim Moore Piercing Jig.

Here is Sabina piercing the sewing holes in a signature.
