Miniature Signature Punching Cradle
In the eternal quest to make my miniature bookbinding more efficient, I scrounged some wood from our local craft/hobby chain store and spent part of the evening making a miniature signature punching cradle. The face of each side of the cradle is approximately 3 1/2" x 2", and the base is about 4" square. It still amazes me that so many of the kinds of hand tools used for bookbinding in medieval times are still in use today.
