portable, adj. - made smaller and lighter than normal, to enable it to be carried easily
I don’t even remember what I was looking for when I found this, but I squealed when I saw it:
Made by Dea Sasso of Massachusetts, this set of binding equipment collapses into a nice portable carrying case. I’ve poked around the web, and people who have used it love it and say it’s a great piece of craftsmanship. Right now a little beyond my budget, but definitely something to add to the Christmas list! If you have any experience with this set (or with Ms Sasso and her bookbinding classes), post in the comments.
Reminded me of another blog post I saw a while back regarding portable artist’s kits. I gotta get busy and make one of these…

Hi Audra, I’m dreaming of the bindery in box ever since I saw it. Let us know when Santa Claus gave you one and tell us how it works
BTW, saw your blog mentioned in the bookartsforum. We’ll probably meet there again, me aka bookarat.
Have a nice weekend!
Pleasure to have you along - your blog was fun (although I didn’t see the bilingual bit at first. That’s a big commitment, not just blogging, but doing so in 2 languages!)
Yes, xmas is less than 6 months away. I might try to cobble my own together before then…
