Glue binding isn't inferior, and I'm tired of hearing it is.

I've used glue for bookbinding for years. Purists always push sewing, but my glued books are strong. Why is adhesive so frowned upon?

Man, I feel you on this. I've been using glue for my projects too, and my books have held up for YEARS. It's so ANNOYING when people act like sewing is the only real way. Modern glue is seriously strong, and it makes the process faster. The hate comes from tradition, not actual quality. Your glued books are proof that it works just fine.

Totally used to buy into the sewing hype lol, but seeing how well your glued books hold up changed my mind. They're lasting just fine.
