I know what I want to do.

I've been trying to find my passion for a long time.
And now i think it's Letterpress printing and book binding. It's been a real interest for a long time.

It's what i want to do. I'm sure.

Worthless.

Well, I'm sure that's a beautiful thing to do...

I'd suggest reading "The End Of Print" by David Carson before fully jumping into the field of book binding and letterpress printing.

I didn't say was going to make a career out of it.
This is a board of rollerbladers for fucks sake.

Pot, meet kettle.

Wouldn't you rather have someone punch you in the face repeatedly while your book prints out on a laserjet? You'll still be able to spend 3 hours binding it, but you'll also have a major headache simulating the one you would have after you realize you've pressed a bunch of pages with spelling errors.

Same result, just more efficient. Work smarter, not harder.

Well, do it... Letterpress printing is fun and the results are beutiful... Experimenting with different kinds of paper is also a cool thing to do.

But it is also diiiiiirty and extremely time consuming. At least compared to Trolls laserjet method.

I wasn't talking about printing and binding, I was referring to you just in general.

Keep it as a hobby. You'll start to hate it if you do it as a job.

I quit a job at Sega after a day because I had already started to hate playing video games by the end of the first day.

***Quark*** · 04.04.2010, 03:44

Good for you. You should go for it.

I've recently found my calling as well, and though some people didn't think it was a good idea I'm going with it and making it work.

Kitchen.

You guys should stop acting like cock smokers all the time, it gets boring to read senseless negativity. That and if it makes you happy, go for it cminor.

In all truth. I just thought you'd find the videos interesting.
My other comments I expected to be ignored.

But since it has been the focus, the obsoleteness, tediousness, and the typography itself are what appeal to me.
