Presscore Nu: Practical Skills for Handmade Books
A tactile publishing practice offering guides, printable worksheets, project notes, workshops, bookbinding, and zine-production support.
Field notes
Presscore Nu separates tutorials from templates: tutorials explain mechanisms such as grain, folding, stitching, and imposition, while templates provide measured sheets for repeatable preparation. Its stated workflow runs from checking grain and opacity through a folded paper dummy and structural proof to binding, pressing, and trimming. The site also lists starting prices for a half-day workshop, a simple handmade book, and a prepared zine edition, with final production scope agreed after contact.
